Gaydon, 1st May 2024: A new generation of Aston Martin power arrives but once a generation, and today we unveil a fearsome new V12 engine that's set to redefine the ultra-luxury landscape.

Aston Martin reaffirms its commitment to a 25-year legacy of V12-powered flagships with this technical masterpiece, a true leader in its class. Showcasing exceptional in-house engineering prowess, this defiant champion of emotional engagement promises visceral performance for those who crave a truly thrilling drive.

Unmatched with 835PS and a staggering 1000Nm of torque, the new V12 is the result of a complete redesign focused on optimisation and improvement. Every stage of the internal combustion process has been refined to achieve unprecedented levels of performance and efficiency.

Technical highlights include a strengthened cylinder block and connecting rods, redesigned cylinder heads with reprofiled camshafts, plus all-new intake and exhaust ports. Repositioned spark plugs and higher flowrate fuel injectors create an optimised combustion cycle for class-leading performance and efficiency gains. Additionally, new, higher-speed, lower-inertia turbochargers deliver increased performance and sharper throttle response.

Aston Martin Chief Technical Officer, Roberto Fedeli, said: "The V12 engine has long been a symbol of power and prestige, but it's also a testament to our engineering passion and technical expertise. With 835PS and 1000Nm of torque, this unparalleled engine represents nothing less than the dawn of a dazzling new V12 era for Aston Martin."

Handcrafted year after year in strictly limited numbers, this new V12 engine will be a bold statement of luxurious sporting intent, powering only Aston Martin's most exclusive and limited-availability models.

It will make its debut later in 2024 at the heart of a true dynamic disruptor – a new flagship model for which further technical details will be revealed closer to launch.
