We’re not just talking about idling around but rather fully unleashing the 6.5-liter V12 engine, engaging the ERS button for an extra 143 bhp of electric boost, and reaching high speeds where the complete 1,000 kg of downforce comes into play.

To explore this question, Top Gear put its Editor-in-Chief, Jack Rix, behind the wheel of an Aston Martin Valkyrie after Contributing Editor Jethro Bovingdon demonstrated what the car is truly capable of.
