Aston Martin CEO Tobias Moers commented, “Completing our first supercar is a proud moment for us. The Valkyrie project has been a tough test for everyone at Aston Martin, but this dedication to our dream has led us to achieve many milestones.

Like all other Aston Martin vehicles, the Valkyrie is manufactured at the brand’s headquarters in Gaydon, UK. A dedicated project delivery team is responsible for the entire process from manufacturing to delivery in the designated Valkyrie production area, where a team of senior technicians is handcrafting 150 vehicles. In reality, each Valkyrie requires over 2,000 man-hours to manufacture.

Before each Valkyrie is delivered, it undergoes track testing at Aston Martin’s high-performance testing base at the Silverstone racetrack, which is also where the Valkyrie has been most frequently tested during its development phase.
