According to the automaker, the combined output of 1,079 PS comes from a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 (828 PS) and three electric motors (251 PS), with peak torque of 1,100 newton-meters.
With the hardtop fitted, the Spider is electronically limited to 350 kph (217 mph), and to 200 kph (124 mph) with the fabric roof, Aston Martin says; top speed is also achievable with the roof off. The company puts downforce at more than 600 kilograms. U.S. site Carscoops cites 0-100 kph in 2.5 seconds and a weight of 1,680 kilograms with lightweight options, 25 kilograms more than the coupe.
