A designer imagines future Aston Martin electric cars
Discussion
It's not bad but how accurate it will be remains to be seen.
I prefer the slightly wider grill on these which harks back to the VH platform cars as opposed to the current Vantage for instance.
Someone will be along to say it's the same as the current one but it looks subtely different on these.

These look like the renderings of a teenager who has been let loose on some good software.
Surely there must be people out there capable of designing a car that is both beautiful and classy. Vantage from 05 - 18, I am looking at you. If people have trained for years and supposedly have a 'good eye' for design, is it really that hard?
I think it was Chris Harris who is quoted as saying something like, a good pretty car will always outsell a great ugly one.
If anyone were to produce cars like these, I imagine they wouldn't sell well at all.

I think the designs are great and gives the cars that "supercar" look although at the expense of the prestigious appearance. It does not need the "classic" look, if you want that, buy a DB5 or Vanquish 2.
The headlamp design is nice but probably not practical to design for use and that tail end a little too radical at the lower sides of the rear quarters.
The doors are most certainly supercar but again, probably not mainstream enough to be used on a daily/regular driver.
Certainly aimed at a younger/Middle Eastern/footballer/new money/infuencer client but good in that market sector.

I hope AM is not simply going to copy what others do, or, like Jaguar, they'll lose their traditional customer base. Or like TVR they'll simply lose the plot and expire. A quick browse finds a new Vanquish, Vanquish Vision, Valhalla and Valkyrie. Have they made any? https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/best-cars/top-1...If you want a 'supercar', there are lots to choose from already. There is only one Aston Martin.

The blue one looks decent. Just needs a combustion engine in it and I’d buy one
More photos at https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/motor-shows-gen...Certainly nicer than the original post.

The Vanquish (as was revealed at the show) is my favourite looking of the three mid-engine cars. More rounded appearance.
AP said production would commence in 2022, but AML probably have their hands full at present with the Valhalla.
Volume mid-engine will of course be a departure for Aston Martin. For some reason, the cars all seem to have quite similar silhouettes (unless it is a Lotus Europa), so sometimes might be confused with McLarens. The Le Mans prototype cars (Toyota, Porsche) LM1 stand apart though.
