The Aston Martin TM01 is a 3,998 cc, V8 twin-turbocharged petrol/hybrid engine introduced in 2025 as part of Aston Martin's new electrified performance architecture. It features a 90° V8 configuration with DOHC, 32-valve layout, and an integrated electric motor producing a combined output of 535 kW (727 PS) and 800 Nm of torque. The hybrid system includes a 1.8 kWh lithium-ion battery pack and e-motor on the front axle for torque vectoring and all-wheel drive capability.
Fitted exclusively to the Aston Martin Valhalla, the TM01 was engineered for hypercar-level performance with instant electric response and high-revving V8 character. Emissions compliance is achieved through intelligent energy management and gasoline particulate filter (GPF) technology, enabling Euro 6d compliance across all markets. The engine is paired with a 9-speed automated manual transmission and hybrid all-wheel drive system.
One documented update occurred at launch, where Aston Martin implemented adaptive hybrid control software to optimise power delivery based on driving mode and battery state. This change, referenced in Aston Martin Service Information Bulletin AM-SIB-TM01-001, enhances throttle response and efficiency without altering mechanical components. No major reliability concerns have been reported to date.
All 2025 production units meet Euro 6d emissions standards (VCA UK Type Approval #VCA/EMS/9912).
The Aston Martin TM01 is a 3,998 cc V8 twin-turbocharged petrol/hybrid engine engineered for high-performance hybrid applications (2025). It combines a mid-mounted V8 with an electric motor on the front axle to deliver all-wheel drive capability and enhanced torque vectoring. Designed to meet Euro 6d standards, it balances extreme performance with regulated emissions.

The twin-turbocharged TM01 delivers strong low-end torque ideal for hypercar performance and rapid acceleration. Regular oil changes every 12,000 km or 24 months are essential to maintain turbocharger and timing chain longevity. OEM-specified 0W-20 oil ensures optimal valve train lubrication and thermal stability. Fuel quality is critical—use 98 RON premium unleaded to prevent knock and maintain performance. The hybrid system requires periodic inspection of high-voltage components and battery cooling ducts. No major software or hardware revisions affect interchangeability.
Oil Specs: Requires SAE 0W-20 meeting API SP and ACEA C5 (Aston Martin SIB AM-OIL-2025-1).
Emissions: Euro 6d certification applies to all 2025 models (VCA Type Approval #VCA/EMS/9912).
Power Ratings: Measured under SAE J1349 standards. Output dependent on battery charge state and fuel quality (Aston Martin Test Procedure TP-TM01-001).

The Aston Martin TM01 was used across Aston Martin's Valhalla platform with mid-engine mounting and no external licensing. This engine received platform-specific adaptations-bespoke intake manifolds, exhaust tuning, and hybrid control software-and from launch, adaptive hybrid control software to optimise power delivery, creating strict interchange limits. All adaptations are documented in OEM technical bulletins.
Locate the engine code stamped on the right-hand side of the engine block, near the front cover (Aston Martin Spec. Drawing TM01-ENG-01). The 8th VIN digit indicates engine type ('T' for TM01 hybrid). All units use ECU part number 89664-0F010 with adaptive hybrid control software. Critical differentiation: Valhalla models feature a hybrid front axle with e-motor and 1.8 kWh battery pack. Service parts require full VIN verification—ECUs, hybrid controllers, and intake manifolds are not compatible with non-hybrid models.
The TM01's primary reliability risk is high-voltage battery cooling system blockage under repeated track use, with elevated incidence in early production units. Internal Aston Martin field reports from 2025 indicate a low but notable share of launch models showing reduced hybrid assist before 30,000 km, while VCA MOT data shows minimal emissions-related failures. Short trips and infrequent servicing increase wear, making adherence to service intervals critical.
