Aston Martin will reveal two new models at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance this month, including an “ultra-exclusive” car to mark the 10th anniversary of the bespoke Q service.

The first model to debut is top-secret; however, Aston Martin states it will offer “high-octane emotion and intense driving pleasure.”

It will debut at the American motor show on August 19, with reports claiming it could be a roadster version of the recently-unveiled V12 Vantage.

This would fill a gap in Aston Martin’s line-up, with the last V12 Vantage Roadster discontinued in 2018 ahead of the current-generation model, which features the V8 Vantage that is still available as a convertible.

The second 'ultra-exclusive' model is from the Q by Aston Martin personalisation division, designed to “encapsulate the brand’s winning track bloodline, with a nod to success at the 24 Hours of Le Mans.”

Both vehicles will adopt Aston Martin’s latest identity, including the first major update to its iconic wings logo since 2003 and a new global brand strategy to appeal to a broader audience.

In addition, the British marque will provide a demonstration of the F1-inspired cockpit found in the Valhalla and facilitate test drives of the DBX707 performance SUV.

The mid-engined, Ferrari SF90 Stradale-rivalling Valhalla hypercar is powered by an AMG-sourced 4.0-litre petrol V8 with electric assistance, for a total system output of 669kW and 1000Nm, and an estimated 0-100km/h sprint time of 2.5 seconds.

Aston Martin will produce 999 examples of the Valhalla, with deliveries expected to commence in 2024.

It made its US debut at the last year’s Pebble Beach event, with the 2022 running providing an in-person glimpse at the stripped-back interior for the first time.

A static display of the DBX707 will also feature, with both vehicles situated at the Aston Martin Club 1913. Unfortunately, access to the clubhouse is by invitation only.

“As one of the premier luxury events in the world, the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance is an important opportunity for Aston Martin to connect with our loyal customers and showcase our latest product offering,” said Renato Bisignani, head of global marketing and communications at Aston Martin.

“We look forward to celebrating Aston Martin’s new era of performance at Pebble Beach and displaying our iconic ultra-luxury models, including a world-first reveal of an exciting new model, and the public debut of another thrilling addition to our breathtaking portfolio.”
