Let"s not mess around: the Aston Martin Valkyrie will develop 1,160bhp and 664lb ft of torque. That"s today"s news straight out of Aston Martin, finally confirming the power output of the naturally aspirated Cosworth V12 which will lie amid the Valkyrie hypercar. We"ve seen the car, we"ve heard the engine, but lordy-lord, those are some big numbers to wrap your head around. For the avoidance of doubt, this thing is going to be fast. Aston Martin says the 6.5-litre V12 will, on its own, develop a nice, round 1,000bhp at a shrill 10,500rpm. It"ll need revving to 7,000rpm just to generate peak torque of 546lb ft.
