Reprenant la couleur argentée “Silver Birch” emblématique de la DB5 dans Goldfinger, cette DB12 spéciale affiche des détails saisissants qui évoquent le modèle iconique. Les jantes de 21 pouces multi-branches, finies en argent avec des accents diamantés, se marient aux étriers de frein noirs et aux touches dorées sur les flancs et les badges. Un logo Aston Martin en argent avec émail noir et un badge “Q” chromé brillant sur l’aile ajoutent une touche de raffinement, rappelant le département des gadgets de James Bond.

The new and much improved 2025 Aston Martin Vantage was revealed back in February of this year, and now it's time for the first of several inevitable special editions. The new Aston Martin Vantage AMV24 Edition has been created to celebrate the victory earned by the Vantage GT3 at the Spa-Francorchamps race earlier this year, and only 24 examples will be made. But the rarity factor is arguably not even the coolest detail here, as each customer gets the opportunity to drive the iconic Belgian circuit on the weekend of next year's 24 Hours of Spa race. Since this is a celebration of a motorsport achievement, each car will be finished in a theme that calls to mind Aston Martin racing liveries.

The FTSE 250 supercar maker has struggled to whittle down a large debt pile since it IPO’d in 2018, despite renewed investment from prominent backers, including the Chinese car giant Geely and the Canadian billionaire Lawrence Stroll. Production issues repeatedly seem to emerge at critical moments. Last November, problems emerged during the hotly-anticipated roll out of its new DB12 model, weighing on shares for the rest of the year. Monday’s profit morning means both wholesale production volumes and adjusted earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) will come in below market expectations this year.

The supply chain disruptions have notably impacted the production of four recently upgraded models. This has resulted in the Warwickshire-based company missing its yearly targets. Aston Martin has announced it will reduce its 2024 production volume to 6,000 cars, down from the previous guidance of 7,000. The decision was influenced by supplier disruptions and China’s economic climate.The company hopes to stabilise production in future quarters, although it anticipates it will not be cash flow positive in the second half of 2024.

If ever there were an automotive brand to be associated with the concept of "posh," it would be Aston Martin. Originally founded out of a small workshop in London in 1913, the brand has become synonymous with the very best (and most expensive) that British automotive engineering has to offer. Aston Martin is the brand that created the first car utilized by James Bond; that's how you know this is a manufacturer that knows a couple of things about style.

The esteemed British brand has lost the once only reliable thing about their cars; that they were beautiful. For most of my childhood, I wanted to be a car designer, and the brand I sketched the most was Aston Martin. It was not the Bond association though. With Aston, you could look to almost any time in their heritage and find the same signatures but interpreted in fresh new ways. They all had that long, flowing hood, a curved, bubble-like glass-house, and a tight, muscular rear; and whether you were thinking about the classic DB5, Callum’s DB9, or my personal favorite, the 1990s Vantage, they all were masculine, elegant, and powerful. That is, until the 2010s, where Aston hit a bit of a rough spot. Ian Callum had so perfectly nailed the turn-of-the-century Aston Martin look with the DB7 and DB9, that everything else just had to riff off that look. The Vanquish, DBS, 2005 Vantage, One-77, and four-door Rapide were all just variants on that design language, and though they all were beautiful, the look was getting a bit tired, and each face-lift, attempting to modernize them, simultaneously made the look less pure whilst also making it obvious how old-hat it was.  

It's been reported that Adrian Newey, Red Bull's chief technical officer, pegged for retirement at the end of this season, has signed up with rival team Aston Martin. And if that wasn't enough, it's now been reported by the Italian publication Autosprint that Max Verstappen could be following in his footsteps.

The Formula 1 team now known as Aston Martin has changed hands a number of times since the late 2000s, but one thing has remained consistent throughout, its powertrain supplier. Mercedes has provided engines to the Silverstone-based team for 15 years — sustaining the partnership through three different rebrands — making it a strong ally for the end of the V8 engine era of 2006-2013 and the turbo-hybrid era of 2014-present. While the bond between Mercedes and Aston Martin has always been solid, the new engine regulations set to be introduced for the 2026 Formula 1 season have inspired Aston Martin to look at other powertrain partners.

The new V12 supercar will do battle with the Ferrari 12 Cilindri very soon.

The Aston Martin Heritage Trust is hunting for the first car ever built by the brand, a coal scuttle that has been missing for 100 years.

Originally known as Project Nebula and AM-RB 001, the Aston Martin Valkyrie was conceived back to when Red Bull Racing and Gaydon-based Aston Martin were joined at the hip. Masterminded by the one and only Adrian Newey, the V12-powered thriller will be joined by another Newey-designed hypercar in 2024.

The new Aston Martin Vanquish, the replacement for the DBS, will finally be unveiled next week, ushering in a bold design and a powerful V12 engine, among other things. To keep our mouths watering ahead of the imminent reveal, the Gaydon-based brand has teased the taillight design on the new range-topper, and it's a drastic departure from other series-produced Astons.

Hallmark’s challenge is clear: elevate Aston Martin to the prestigious ranks of supercar manufacturers like Ferrari and McLaren, while pushing through significant price increases and shifting away from a strategy that relied on selling cheaper, high-volume models. He must do this without the backing of a global automotive powerhouse like Volkswagen, Bentley’s parent company, instead navigating the influence of Aston Martin’s dominant investor and executive chairman, Lawrence Stroll.

The Warwickshire-headquartered company has reported a pre-tax loss of £216.7m for the six months to June 30, 2024, compared to the loss of £142.2m it reported during the same period in 2023. New results filed with the London Stock Exchange also show its revenue declined from £677.4m to £603m. The marque delivered just 1,998 vehicles over the six months, nearly a third fewer year-on-year.

Aston Martin will tentatively enter the electric vehicle (EV) market next year with its first plug-in supercar. The Valhalla will have a hybrid, three-motor powertrain capable of going from nought to 60 miles per hour in just 2.5 seconds and a top speed of 217 mph. Yet the launch of the Valhalla, named after the mythological hall for slain Viking warriors, also underlines a question that still sits at the heart of Aston’s electrification strategy: do its customers really want to drive an electric car? Under plans previously set out by executives, the company would have launched its first fully-electric model in 2025.

Aston Martin, not for the first time, put a positive gloss on poor financial results. As losses widened in the second quarter, investors were assured core profit would grow in the second half. The legendary maker of luxury sports cars for the rich, famous and mythical British spy James Bond, has much practice putting a brave face on tough challenges, on the race-track and off. After all, it has declared bankruptcy half a dozen times in its 100-year history.

Aston Martin has raised £135m through a debt placing as it looks to shore up the balance sheet ahead of a production ramp-up later this year. The marque said it had raised around $90m (£70.7m) by issuing 10 per cent senior secured notes, and a further £65m through 10.4 per cent senior secured notes, due to mature in 2029. Net proceeds from the offering are expected to be used by Aston Martin to repay borrowings under its existing super senior revolving credit facility. The carmaker has struggled for years under a burgeoning debt pile since listing in 2018. Billionaire chair Lawrence Stroll has in the past looked to the firm’s backers, which include the Chinese carmaker Geely, for additional funds.
