2019 Aston Martin DBS Superleggera

The DBS Aston Martin dates back to the 1960's, and Superleggera is a term associated with Italian supercars. Leggera is Italian for “light, so adding the word “Super” before it suggests a significant reduction in mass. The DBS Superleggera is basically a DB11 AMR, with 715 horsepower, a lighter chassis and material upgrades. The AMR acromym stands for Aston Martin Racing, which represents Aston’s desire to differentiate its V-8 and V-12 models. With a design that is distinctly Aston Martin, the 2019 Aston Martin DBS Superleggera is broader and more muscular than its predecessors. Aston Martin says the change is not one of mere style, but one of form and function, one made necessary to cool and control this menacingly attractive automobile. It is, after all, the most powerful production Aston Martin ever. aston-martin-DBS-Superleggera-tampa-dimmitt-front

It Starts Upfront

Just a bit raw and edgy, to say the hexagonal grille of the 2019 DBS Superleggera dominates the aggressive appearance of this Aston Martin is perhaps an understatement. This is a car hungry for oxygen and Aston Martin designers and engineers deliver it through an oversized, bold grille to breath it in. Scoops on the long, sweeping hood line also assist in this endeavor. This is automotive art, at once beautiful and yet aggressive, commanding while lightweight. aston-martin-DBS-Superleggera-tampa-dimmitt-interior-2 Stronger suspensions, more powerful brakes and increased cooling usually mean more weight. This is the constant push-pull of performance vehicle design. Aston Martin resolves this on the DBS Superleggera by using only the finest, strongest lightweight materials, including a carbon fiber shell. 2019-aston-martin-dbs-superleggera interior dash

Every Bit as Fast as it Looks

The 2019 Aston Martin DBS Superleggera features the anticipated V-12, 5.2 liter, twin-turbo engine that produces a brow raising 715 hp. At about 1800 rpm, this engine generates 664 lb-ft of torque. With a top end of 211 miles per hour, the DBS Superleggera can go from zero to 62 mph in about 3.4 seconds and zero to 100 mph in 6.4 seconds. A smooth shifting 8-speed transmission compliments all this power providing exciting acceleration without the headbanging. aston-martin-DBS-Superleggera-tampa-dimmitt-rear

All-New 2020 Aston Martin DBX

When one thinks of Aston Martin, one may conjure visions of James Bond, road rallies and quick, smaller performance cars turning nimbly along a racecourse. One certainly doesn't envision a lifted, five-door SUV with off-road and towing capabilities. Soon, that may begin to change as Aston Martin prepares to unleash its first-ever SUV, the 2020 Aston Martin DBX. It has taken just a bit for Aston Martin to join the tsunami of automakers entering the SUV market. Of course, they placed some challenging objectives in their own path. They chose to maintain the same standards engineered into their iconic performance cars. They focused on reaching higher levels of real-world off-road and towing capabilities. They were also keenly aware the DBX would be an SUV intended for use as upscale family transportation. To these ends, the 2020 Aston Martin DBX has been tested on the limitless speeds of the Autobahn and in the heat of the desert of the Middle East. It has been exposed to the Arctic air and Alpine passes. It is just possible it soon could be ready for a cul-de-sac near you. The 2020 Aston Martin DBX keeps the brand's trademark oblong grill, although now in front of a larger, taller, lifted vehicle with five doors and room for at least four inside. The DBX shares a platform with the DB11 and is engineered with an all aluminum body. A dovetail spoiler serves as the SUV's punctuation mark. Coming or going, this is a vehicle with a distinct Aston Martin personality. In-between, it raises eyebrows. While the brand is being understandably coy with the details, the interior of the 2020 Aston Martin DBX will most certainly contain natural wood appointments, real metal trim, and fine leather. One can expect the latest in technological comforts as well. Fueled by a Mercedes-AMG V-8 engine, its power has been estimated to be upwards to 700 hp. This is not an SUV that will under perform in any area. [gallery size="full" columns="2" ids="307378,307381"] Aston Martin has been referred to as a boutique automaker, producing just over 4,000 vehicles annually. The DBX is expected to help take the brand to the next level, where ultimately Aston Martin will be producing only fully electric vehicles. While the journey still has a way to go, the 2020 DBX is an exciting step along the path.

Aston-Martin-Rapide-E

2019 Aston Martin Rapide E

After making its debut at the Shanghai Motor Show, the 2020 Aston Martin Rapide E has dominated automotive-related conversations especially when it comes to electric cars. Expectations are high as the automaker has promised its Rapide E will mimic the feel and character of the Rapide AMR. It certainly has the style and performance to earn its Aston Martin pedigree. This is an automobile for a chosen few, those who want to own a part - and be a part - of automotive history. Redefining Power The 2020 Aston Martin Rapide E redefines power for the iconic automaker. There is no engine, gearbox, exhaust system or fuel tank. Instead, 5600 ion cells are packed in a carbon-fiber Kevlar producing 65kWh of power. Its two rear electric motors produce 700 lb-ft of torque and 449kW. That converts to 602 hp of mechanical power. This is actually six more horsepower and 236 more lb-ft of torque than the Rapide AMR. The Rapide E can accelerate from zero to 60 in 3.9 seconds (or less) and has a top speed of 155mph. This acceleration and speed without the roar of an Aston Martin engine is both thrilling and a bit surreal. It has a range of nearly 200 miles between charges, with a high-power onboard charger completing the job in about three hours. Wind Shredding Exterior Styling With no engine to cool, Aston Martin designers and engineers were free to create an automobile that would slice through the air, as opposed to manipulating it. This has resulted in a stylish new front end treatment and sleek design. A larger rear diffuser results from the Rapide E's lack of an exhaust system and redesigned underfloor. Forged aluminum wheels add to the aerodynamics of the Rapide E. Informative Tech Keeps You Connected Inside the 2020 Rapide E keeps you informed and connected with a 10” digital screen that shares details of your Aston Martin's performance. Easily and conveniently monitor the state of the battery's charge, real-time energy consumption, and motor power levels. The cabin features the luxury amenities you would expect from Aston Martin including liberal use of carbon fiber trim. The Rapide E also features remote monitoring. The First of a New Generation The Aston Martin Rapide E represents the first of the British sportscar maker's new generation of electric vehicles. It begins the move to the brand's goal of moving to all electrified vehicles by 2025. It is also the first Aston Martin to be produced at the company's new state-of-the-art St. Athan plant in Wales. Production of the Aston Martin Rapide E is extremely limited and will be available for a chosen few. It is a rare opportunity to play a role in the automotive history of a legendary brand.
