The Valen can accelerate from 0-100 kmph in 3.0 seconds and has a claimed top speed of 344 kmph.

The car shown here is finished in Satin Andromeda Red, while customers can also opt for exposed carbon fibre and further Q by Aston Martin personalisation.
Inside, Aston Martin has given the Valen a driver-focused cockpit with a slim centre console and sportier layout.
