Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings Plc’s rollout of the $3 million Valkyrie hypercar is expected to deliver another push in the manufacturer’s restructuring plans.

The super-car maker, which was rescued by Canadian Billionaire Lawrence Stroll last year, plans to ship “double digit numbers of” Valkyries in the current quarter, Chief Executive Officer Tobias Moers said Thursday. The sold out car follows on from strong demand for Aston’s $180,000 DBX SUV that’s helped the carmaker swing to an operating profit during the current quarter.
