Aston Martin marked 75 years in the Americas at Monterey Car Week 2025 with a series of major debuts, led by the Thrillseeker Collection and the production version of the Valhalla supercar.
The Thrillseeker Collection – created by the brand’s Q by Aston Martin bespoke division – made its global debut at The Quail: A Motorsports Gathering. The trio of convertibles took inspiration from the colours of Carmel Bay: a Vantage Roadster in Mako Blue, a DB12 Volante in Seychelles Blue, and a Vanquish Volante in Ultramarine Black.

Each car featured bronze detailing and a matching luggage set. Just nine examples were produced, all of which were already sold, with deliveries due from late 2025.
Aston Martin also revealed the production version of the long-awaited Valhalla. The mid-engined plug-in hybrid is the marque’s first series-production supercar of its kind, its first PHEV, and the first to feature dedicated EV range capability. It was shown at both The Quail and the Pebble Beach Concept Car Lawn.
