Fernando Alonso already has his car with 1,155 CV... guess which one it is!

Spanish driver Fernando Alonso, two-time Formula 1 World Champion, has added a jewel to his impressive car collection: the Aston Martin Valkyrie, a hypercar that redefines the boundaries between track and road. The handover took place in the luxurious setting of Monaco, the city where Alonso lives, and there could not have been a more iconic place for the debut of this marvel.

Conceived as a true F1® for the road, the Aston Martin Valkyrie draws its inspiration from Formula 1, incorporating technologies and concepts from the AMR24 single-seater of the Aston Martin Aramco Formula 1® team. This hypercar, designed in close collaboration with Alonso and the Q by Aston Martin personalisation team, is a masterpiece of engineering and customisation.

A unique design for a unique driver

Alonso’s Valkyrie is not just another model; its bespoke configuration stands out for an eye-catching Aston Martin Racing Green colour with details in AMR Satin Lime, which emphasise the car’s complex aerodynamic lines. It also features custom touches in colours such as Speed Red and shades of blue, which adorn the Venturi tunnel and other key bodywork elements. The exposed carbon fibre on the roof and engine cover reinforces the high-performance aesthetic, while a bold warning graphic is added at the rear: ‘CAUTION HOT’.

The interior of the Valkyrie reflects the same level of detail. Carbon fibre dominates the driver-focused cabin, with seats upholstered in Alcantara Pure Black and contrasting stitching in AMR Lime. Even Alonso’s personal logo, embroidered on the headrests, underlines the vehicle’s extreme personalisation. However, the most intimate and emotional detail is a red-anodised accelerator pedal, engraved with the number “14“, in honour of the number Alonso has raced with since winning his first karting championship.

Formula 1 technology for the road

The heart of the Aston Martin Valkyrie is an impressive 6.5-litre V12 hybrid engine, capable of producing 1,155 CV of power. This monstrous machine accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in under 2.5 seconds, offering a driving experience comparable to that of a Formula 1 single-seater. Advanced aerodynamics and technology inherited from top-category racing bring this car as close to a competition vehicle as the law allows.

Fernando Alonso, visibly moved on receiving the car, said: “This is a day I have waited for a long time. The Valkyrie is truly an F1® for the road, and having been part of its design makes it even more special. I can’t wait to drive it on the roads.”

Craftsmanship limited to 150 units

The Aston Martin Valkyrie is an extremely limited edition, with only 150 units produced. Each car is hand-assembled at the Gaydon facilities in the United Kingdom, and each requires more than 2,000 hours of work to complete. Before handover, every Valkyrie is rigorously tested at Silverstone circuit, where much of its technology was developed.

The level of personalisation of the Valkyrie is made possible by the Q by Aston Martin programme, which allows customers to design a truly unique vehicle. From custom exterior colours to interior engravings, the only limit is imagination.
