The Vulcan is Aston Martin’s rival to other supercars like the McLaren P1 GTR and is powred by a naturally-aspirated 7.0L V-12 engine that has more than 800 horsepower. The V-12 is mated to a six-speed sequential transmission and Aston Martin says that the power-to-weight ratio will exceed GTE race cars that compete in the FIA World Endurance Championship.
