The Aston Martin One-77 is a two-door coupé built by Aston Martin.
It first appeared at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, although the car remained mostly covered by a "Savile Row tailored skirt" throughout the show,[1] before being fully revealed at the 2009 Geneva Motor Show.
There was a limited run of 77 units[1][2][3] as delivery started in October 2010.

Prior to the One-77's Paris Motor Show debut, various details about the car had been leaked,[4] but official specifications were not fully revealed until the 2009 Geneva Motor Show.
The One-77 will feature a full carbon fibre monocoque chassis, a handcrafted aluminium body, and a naturally aspirated 7.3 litre V12 engine with 750 hp (560 kW). Aston Martin claims that this will be the most powerful naturally aspirated production engine in the world when the car is delivered.[5]
The car will also use a strengthened version of the DB9's 6-speed automated manual transmission and height-adjustable pushrod suspension coupled with dynamic stability control.[6] It will feature Pirelli P Zero Corsa tyres (255/35 ZR20 front, 335/30 ZR20 rear) and Carbon Ceramic Matrix brakes.
The top speed was estimated to be 200 mph (320 km/h) but actual tests in December 2009 showed a figure of 220.007 mph (354.067 km/h),[7] with a 0–60 mph time of approximately 3.5 seconds.
The engineering and build source of the carbon chassis and suspension system is contracted to Multimatic of Canada.
The projected weight is 1,500 kg (3,307 lb).[8]
Due to the lack of details from Aston Martin, many automotive publications have speculated on the final pricing of the car. While estimates vary, all expect the price to easily run in the millions.
According to the website 925.nl, the One-77 will cost approximately £1,050,000.[4] However, the Australian newspaper The Courier-Mail expects it to be priced at around AU$2.6 million.[9], $800,000 of which is tax and import duty.
According to British magazine Top Gear, the car's price will be £1,200,000,[10] while the American magazine Robb Report expects it to be priced at US$1,700,000. In India, the car is expected to be priced at Rs 200 lakhs or approximately $4.4 million.[11]
The Aston Martin One-77 has been awarded with several internationally renowned design awards including the Concorso d’Eleganza Design Award for Concept Cars and Prototypes[12], the GOOD DESIGN award by The Chicago Athenauem: Museum of Architecture and Design in North America[13] and the "Best Design" award by the UK motoring magazine Auto Express.[14] and many others.
The One-77 appears in a variety of video games including Forza Motorsport 3 and Forza Motorsport 4, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit in both factory form and in police livery, Test Drive Unlimited 2 and it is featured on the cover art for Asphalt 3D
