Aston Martin’s ultimate expression of design, engineering and
craftsmanship; the One-77 is being readied for production. The 7.3 litre V12 engine, as part of the development
process, has been certified at 750 bhp and 750 Nm of torque, positioning it as the most powerful naturally
aspirated road car engine in the world today.
The One-77, a sports car of unparalleled beauty with subtle aggression and performance to eclipse any previous
Aston Martin road car will be built at the marque’s global headquarters in Gaydon, Warwickshire, England. Over the
past nine months, the One-77 has been undergoing Aston Martin’s rigorous engineering test programme. The car,
despite its exclusive volume of only 77 is being subjected to the same engineering development process as the
current range of acclaimed sports cars. This includes extreme hot and cold testing plus sign-off at the Nürburgring
Nordschleife; the world’s toughest and most unforgiving test track.
In April of this year the One-77 made its on-road debut as part of the Tourist Trophy where it led a parade of
super cars taking the Trophy from London’s Pall Mall to the Silverstone circuit where it performed some hot
laps.
Dr. Ulrich Bez, Chief Executive of Aston Martin said: “The One-77 is approaching a production reality and of
course, there is considerable excitement in the project. Now the next steps are all about details and refinement to
complete the composition. I know the final car will demonstrate what the Aston Martin team is capable of.”
Deliveries of the One-77 are expected to commence in early 2011.
