Aston Martin finally unveiled the new DBS at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance in California yesterday.
Aston Martin Chief Executive Officer, Dr Ulrich Bez, said: "The DBS is the ultimate expression of Aston Martin's engineering and technical ability.
"The DBS delivers the complete driving experience and bridges the gap between our road and track cars - the DB9 and DBR9."
The Aston Martin DBS is a 6.0-litre V12 powered, race-bred, two-seater shaped by the aerodynamic demands of high performance.
The hand-built V12 produces 380kW (510bhp/517PS), propels the car to a top speed of 191mph (302km/h) and boasts a 0-62mph (0-100km/h) time of 4.3 seconds.
The DBS will be built at Aston Martin's global headquarters at Gaydon, near Warwickshire in the UK, joining the current Aston Martin line-up.
This now comprises the DB9, the sportier V8 Vantage Coupe and the corresponding Vantage Roadster - launched earlier this year.
Deliveries of the DBS are expected to commence during quarter one 2008, with prices to be confirmed at the Frankfurt Motor Show in September. |
