Aston Martin DBS GT Zagato

In 2019, the Aston Martin DBS GT Zagato was introduced as an improved Superlegger. Today, Aston Martin has decided to produce only 19 copies of the DBS GT Zagato.

It is a unique car made in Satin Gray that will be sold together with the DB4 GT Zagato Continuation model. The price of both models is around $ 7.8 million.

The car is made of carbon fiber (108 parts), while some unique parts are made with a 3D printer. It is powered by a 5.2-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 760 hp (567 kW) and 664 lb-ft (900 Nm) of torque.

The exterior of the DBS GT Zagato features a new Zagato front grille, which opens by starting the engine, and a stylized roof along the entire car. It will be the only model without the Gold trim package, but with forged carbon fiber badges.

One such model was delivered to the owner in the USA.

Aston Martin Valkyrie AMR Pro

It’s very busy these days in Aston Martin. After presenting the Vantage Roadster a few days ago, this time the new Valkyrie AMR Pro is coming.

Originally presented as a concept, Valkyrie has undergone a number of changes and improvements. The overall weight of the vehicle has been reduced by removing the hybrid parts, a new rear wing has been installed, the wheelbase has been reduced, and many carbon parts have been installed.

Aston Martin CEO Tobias Moers said: “The entire Aston Martin Valkyrie program has been an extraordinary adventure in engineering.”

The cars will be built in just 40 units, with a delivery schedule in late 2021.

The Valkyrie AMR Pro is powered by a 6.5-liter V12 engine with 1,000 hp at 11,000 rpm, which is less than the previous version with 1,100 hp. The engine was made by the British company Crosworth. With twice the thrust, the AMR Pro achieves lateral acceleration of more than 3G.

Tobias Moers also said: “As an expression of the passion and expertise that can be found within Aston Martin and its closest technical partners, Valkyrie AMR Pro is a project beyond compare, a true‘ no rules ’track-only version. The Valkyrie AMR Pro is a testament to Aston Martin’s commitment to pure performance and this DNA performance will be evident in our future product portfolio. Nothing else looks like it, nothing else sounds like it, and I am absolutely certain nothing else will drive like it! ”

More information will be released later this year, and all cars will be left-hand drive.

One Hundred Years of Aston Martin A3

Aston Martin has introduced a new Vantage Roadster model in honor of its oldest vehicle, the A3. The A3 was produced in 1921 as the third prototype, before commercial vehicle production began.

Director of Q and Special Project Sales at Aston Martin, Simon Lane, said: “It is only right that this great brand takes the opportunity to celebrate the centenary of its oldest surviving model and I am thrilled that my team, working with the AMHT and Aston Martin HWM, have been able to create this tasteful yet suitably exhilarating tribute to our historic forebear. ”

At the front there is a black grille with a contrasting bright frame. The bonnet, fixed with leather straps, is in the style of the A3 model. The Vantage Roadster features black 20-inch forged wheels with a set of bronze brake calipers.

The interior is upholstered in Obsidian Black leather with Chestnut Tan leather accessories. On the rear cubby lid, there is an embroidered script. The same script was used on 1921 models.

The A3 is powered by a 1.5-liter four-cylinder engine with 11 hp, which is enough to reach a top speed of 84.5 mph (136 km / h). On the other hand, the Aston Martin Vantage Roadster is powered by a powerful 4.0-liter V8 engine with 510 hp, enough for a top speed of 190 mph (306 km / h).

Aston Martin will produce only three copies of this car.
