Next Aston Martin DB model debuts on May 24
bones laid up with more muscle, better reflexes, enhanced technology. At the front, the clamshell hood is gone, replaced by a traditional panel bracketed by the fenders. It looks like there's a larger grille with the hallmark five horizontal slats. These appear to be the same headlight housings, but each contains a triplicate of lamps and a new DRL signature.
The side view gives away gorgeous bronze wheels that might be 21 inches, an inch larger than the stock rims on the DB11. Behind them, one of the two big changes on thewill be the suspension. We don't know what that entails, we're told"class-leading performance" and"pinpoint driving dynamics." Powering those dynamics should be the 5.2-liter V12 and 4.0-liter Mercedes-AMG-sourced twin-turbo V8 we're familiar with.
The second big change comes inside, previewed by the image of the center console. The waterfall console that's been tweaked and fiddled with since its debut in the 2001finally gets a sequel. A canted lower section contains a widescreen infotainment display, a touchscreen, above an array of knobs and buttons.
Below that, there's a rotary knob with an engine start button ahead of a lever-like gear shifter — no more pushbuttons. The HVAC system gets dedicated buttons and rollers, another roller serving as volume control. We see an On/Off icon as well, which we'd hope is for the screen; car interiors are lit up like Johnson Space Control now, the more lights we can turn off in the cabin, the better.
Aston Martin's revival has taken off this year, the automaker's 110th anniversary. The potential DB12 isn't only the first sign of the new Aston to come, CEO Lawrence Stroll believes the upgraded range of GT cars will be good enough to kill another symbol of the former regime.
