Sorry if I am being a bit thick, but what is the difference between the two cars?

They look the same to my eyes, is the red and black just a track version of the white one?

The white one is going to be really fast, the black and red one will be like a 3g video game.

That nose on the Valhalla will likely split the airflow between the under/over body. The aero looks mega on these things. Look how low the scuttle is and how large the double width jet fighter canopy is? Imagine the view from in there....

To agree with the comment above, these are the first designs that genuine move the game on from the F1.

Nothing dynamic about that - a very slow 'tour' in front of the camera. If you don't want to show it off before it's ready - don't release a video !!

Looks stunning to me. As others have said, all functional design and no fussy addenda. Looks like something from the next BladeRunner movie....

The cockpit looks out of proportion, a bit like an Ultima.

Agreed. I'm quite taken by the new AM mid-engined cars and concepts actually. The Vantage Vision is definitely the best looking of the bunch, hope most of its shapes stay in tact in production form.

Saw these at Geneva; blew me away!

A Valhalla in green would definitely suit the name Kermit.

Whatever happened to the Valhalla?

[Venturist]

Believe it’s still being worked on. Fairly normal timescales too, just feels like it should have been out by now because Aston PR can’t help but over-promise things. Including a “dynamic debut” of a car that had barely started being engineered yet.

There was a lot of fluff about deposit holders pulling out late last year - SSO?

Another update from AM due later this year. This will showcase the revised engine/hybrid powertrain packages from MB instead of the proposed in-house V6.

I was thinking they look like the outcome of an Ultima mating with a Tesla.
