Highly-Exclusive Hypercars

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Aston Martin Reveals the Outstanding Roofless 'Valkyrie Spider'

— August 17, 2021 — Autos
Aston Martin recently unveiled its newest "hypercar," the 'Valkyrie Spider.' The ultra-luxe vehicle is the third model to join the brand's Valkyrie line, expanding on the original car by updating its doors and removing its roof.

There's no doubt that this highly aerodynamic supercar is built for speed. Boasting a 1,140 horsepower, V12 engine, drivers of the 'Valkyrie Spider' will be able to reach speeds of up to 217 miles per hour with the roof attached -- without it, 205 miles per hour.

The upgraded, removable roof is built from a light carbon fiber material with hinged polycarbonate windows. Aside from the car's drop-top feature, its new front-hinged butterfly doors mark the other significant point of difference from previous models. Aston Martin will produce and sell a total of 85 'Valkyrie Spiders,' making it an incredibly rare vehicle targeted towards wealthy collectors.
