Aston Martin has been promising us three new mid-engine cars, which is exciting. We’ve seen the highest performance model, the Aston Martin Valkyrie, in action already, but now the new Aston Martin Valhalla has also moved beyond the show floor stage with a “dynamic concept.” To reiterate, the Valkyrie is the V12 mid-engine hypercar that costs like a billion dollars a will sit at the top of Aston’s new mode lineup, and the Valhalla slots under that with a similar design, similar carbon fiber body structure, and a hybrid V6 engine setup. Both of those sit on a higher performance peg the upcoming re-imagining of the Vanquish model as a mid-engine sports car. There’s not much else to this news beyond some new pics of a physical prototype of the Valhalla, and a couple of heavily edited clips that offer no real indication of speed or sound. But the Valhalla looks like an Aston Martin and a McLaren fused together in a freak wind tunnel accident and I gotta … [Read more...] about Aston Martin Valhalla: Now We’re Talking

Aston Martin to reveal Lagonda all-terrain concept 4×4 at Geneva Motor Show
Aston Martin has revealed a 'teaser' image of its new Lagonda All-Terrain Concept, which will debut at the Geneva Motor Show in the first week of March. Reflecting the popular Vision Concept which the British manufacturer revealed at Geneva a year ago, the new four-wheel-drive model will be a zero-emission SUV (of sorts) with elevated ground clearance and a sleek design. Apart from the absence of wing mirrors, it's difficult to deduce much about the styling, though Aston Martin describes the car as “rakish” as well as space-efficient. “The ways in which automotive brands reveal new product has changed beyond recognition in recent years, but there’s still something compelling about the unique atmosphere of a great motor show,” said Andy Palmer, Aston Martin Lagonda President and Group CEO. “Historically Geneva has always been good for us - the buzz surrounding the stand last year when we revealed the Lagonda Vision … [Read more...] about Aston Martin to reveal Lagonda all-terrain concept 4×4 at Geneva Motor Show
Aston Martin Vantage GT3 To Take On Abu Dhabi
Aston Martin Racing’s new Vantage GT3 set for the Gulf 12 Hours. Three works drivers will join the partner teams in the Abu Dhabi event. Aston Martin will be dragging three of its customer teams halfway around the globe to run the endurance race at the sparkling Yas Marina circuit in Abu Dhabi. This can easily be seen as Aston carrying on the fine tradition of factories supporting gentleman race drivers and semi-independent teams. They could win, but they will most surely have fun. Desert Gold Mines A few years back, Abu Dhabi, as a nation, realized they were sitting on a small ocean of oil, which effectively means they were sitting on a small ocean of money. Thankfully (from a gearhead perspective) they decided to spread some of that cheese all over the desert floor in the form of a not-at-all-bad racing complex. At the time, the rumors were they dumped more than a billion dollars into the project, and boy, it sure looks like it. Yas Marina (the name of the place) looks like a … [Read more...] about Aston Martin Vantage GT3 To Take On Abu Dhabi
The New Aston Martin Vantage Has Been Unveiled in Kuala Lumpur
The new Aston Martin Vantage has finally made its way to Kuala Lumpur. The evocative name was first used in 1951 on a high-output engine option for the DB2, and many years after that, the 'Vantage' moniker was quickly established as a model in its own right. So now, this newest Aston Martin Vantage carries on the name and the heritage. Ms Nancy Chen, Head of Sales Operations for Aston Martin, Southeast Asia, explained briefly about the new Vantage and the brand as a whole. “This car is the second new model under our Second Century Plan. The second of seven new models in seven years. It (referring to Aston Martin's Second Century Plan) is a bold plan, and it is working. We have made a strong start with the DB11, taking Aston Martin back into profit earlier this year. The new Vantage will build on this success, and take the company to greater heights.” said Nancy. In terms of the Vantage, this gorgeous new sports car is powered by a 4.0liter 503HP (510ps) / 685 … [Read more...] about The New Aston Martin Vantage Has Been Unveiled in Kuala Lumpur
