Aston Martin Set To Captivate With Dynamic Display At Goodwood Festival 2024
Aston Martin is set to dazzle at the 2024 Goodwood Festival of Speed, showcasing an impressive array of sports cars. The event, scheduled from 11-14 July, will feature the Valkyrie, Valour, Valiant, Victor, and Vantage models. This annual festival is a must-attend for speed enthusiasts worldwide.
Visitors can look forward to the global debut of the Aston Martin Valiant. This exclusive model, limited to just 38 units, was commissioned by Fernando Alonso, a two-time Formula One® World Champion. Alonso will drive the Valiant on Friday at Goodwood.
The Valiant is designed to embody Aston Martin’s dedication to creating pure driver’s cars. Its Muncher-inspired specification pays homage to the legendary Aston Martin Le Mans race car. Alongside the Valiant in the Supercar Paddock and on the Goodwood Hillclimb will be other notable models.
The Valkyrie hypercar returns after its dynamic debut at Goodwood in 2021. This car has inspired the new Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR-LMH-hypercar, which aims to bring the brand back to top-tier sports car racing in 2025.
The Valour celebrates Aston Martin’s 110th anniversary with a bespoke 6-speed manual transmission paired with a 5.2-litre Twin-Turbo V12 engine. This model represents the end of an era for classic driver engagement.
The unique Aston Martin Victor, described by Top Gear as "the hypercar the eighties never had," features a manual gearbox and a V12 engine. Created by ‘Q by Aston Martin,’ this car offers a rare sight on the hillclimb and in the Supercar Paddock.
New Models and Motorsport Presence
Launched recently, the new Aston Martin Vantage continues the brand’s tradition of potent front-engined, rear-wheel-drive sports cars. It exemplifies maximum thrills and confidence for drivers.
The motorsport paddock will also showcase the one-off Official FIA Safety Car of Formula 1® and the new-for-2024 Vantage GT3 race car. These models compete globally in series like the FIA World Endurance Championship.
Joining these models at Goodwood is the world’s first Super Tourer, the Aston Martin DB12. Also on display in the First Glance paddock is the new DBX707, featuring a striking interior design and state-of-the-art infotainment system developed in-house at Aston Martin.
Marco Mattiacci, Global Chief Brand & Commercial Officer said: "The Festival of Speed is the highlight of the season for those who worship at the temple of speed. We are proud to play a part in this incredible, annual celebration of speed and this year we are delighted to offer up quite the array of Aston Martin sports cars and also the brand-new spec of DBX707."
Aston Martin Lagonda aims to be synonymous with style, luxury, performance, and exclusivity. Founded in 1913 by Lionel Martin and Robert Bamford, it combines cutting-edge technology with traditional craftsmanship.
Aligned with its Racing Green sustainability strategy, Aston Martin plans to develop electric performance cars by 2025. The company aims for net-zero manufacturing facilities by 2030.
Based in Gaydon, England, Aston Martin Lagonda designs and exports cars sold in 56 countries worldwide. Its sports cars are manufactured in Gaydon while its luxury DBX SUV range is produced in St Athan, Wales.
