Aston Martin is embarking on an exciting new chapter in its renowned racing history with the unveiling of the Valkyrie hypercar. This pure racing machine, derived from its road-legal counterpart, marks the brand's return to the pinnacle of endurance motorsport and aims for overall victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.

The production of the Aston Martin Valkyrie hypercar wrapped at the end of the year to make room for the Valhalla model, but the company has revived it

If you're shopping for a V12-powered Aston Martin, you can either have an automatic or a price well into the six figures. Right? Well, maybe not. Right now, there's a lovely V12-powered Aston Martin DBS Coupe on Cars & Bids, and it has the most important feature of all: a third pedal for a six-speed manual transmission.

In 2023, Aston Martin said it would debut its first EV by this year, and then in 2024 Aston said its first EV wouldn’t arrive until 2026. Now, the marque claims its first EV will be here within the next five years, or by 2030, as it focuses more on hybrid tech and new cars like the plug-in hybrid Valhalla.

Aston Martin is coming back to the 24 Hours of Le Mans this year and hoping to win the event outright for the first time in more than 65 years. To achieve that lofty goal, it will race a V-12-powered hypercar based on its Valkyrie.
