Aston Martin narrows losses as Valhalla supercar boosts sales

Summarised from 3 outlets · Updated 28 Oct, 09:44 · Archive

Aston Martin has reported narrower losses and a 36% revenue increase, driven by demand for its Valhalla supercar.

Aston Martin has reported improving financial performance despite remaining in the red. Third-quarter revenues soared 36% to £389 million compared with the same period last year. Pre-tax losses narrowed to £77 million from £112 million the previous year.

The British luxury carmaker attributed the improvement to strong demand for its Valhalla Coupe, a plug-in hybrid mid-engine supercar priced from about £850,000. The company has made about 350 deliveries since launch and expects around 500 by the end of the year. The supercar has increased average selling prices by a quarter, the company said.

Aston Martin also announced plans to launch a Valhalla Spider variant, with deliveries beginning in the second half of 2027. Under the leadership of Canadian billionaire Lawrence Stroll, the company's chairman and biggest shareholder, Aston Martin said its 'transformation programme' was delivering results. In February, the company had announced the cutting of up to nearly 600 jobs following bigger annual losses. It now expects stronger financial performance in 2026.
