Probably because it is mid engined!

And Lotus had it before Aston Martin (sans rivets).

(Conceived in 1994 for the Elise)

Actually Karl, the type of bonded aluminium chassis structure Lotus and AM currently use was originally conceived by Austin-Rover and Alcan in the early 80's and was showcased on a aerodynamic/lightweight concept car called the ECV 3.

Lotus were the first company to use that type of chassis structure on an actual production car though.

Nice. Like it even more...good to see elements of the video game car make it into reality.

Shame they're only making 24.

Looks like a 1960s Stingray at the front. No bad thing that.
800+ bhp
Big wing.
Hypercars should be hyper...

A few more from yesterday at Geneva:



It is wiiiiide. As wide as a truck. It's a good thing that you won't have to take it onto a public road.

I know they have some shared components but from your camera angle it looks like these cars are on the Volvo stand!

I know what you mean but there is a very small glass partition.

But I think that the Volvo reps must have been getting bored with the nerds coming onto their stand just to take photos of the back of a trio of Astons. That's certainly where I got mine from.
