​​Aston Martin V12 Speedster

The V12 Speedster, as the name suggests, is powered by a 5.2 liter twin-turbocharged V12 developing 700 HP and 555 lbs-ft of torque, in a front-mid mount position behind the front axle. That power is mated to an 8-speed ZF automatic, and the car comes in rear-wheel drive configuration only.

The car had an extremely short design and development period; only 12 months from original concept to production ready. This is partly due to the new Aston Martin division “Q By Aston Martin,” which is the same as AMG is to Mercedes and the M Division is to BMW.

Capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 in 3.5 seconds, the Speedster promises a visceral open top experience that harks back to Aston Martin’s participation in Le Mans during the 1950s and 1960s. Pricing starts at $950,000 and only 88 units will be produced. Aston Martin started accepting orders in 2020, with deliveries expected early in 2021.

One of the key design elements of the Speedster is that it will not have a roof or windscreen at any point, so a proper set of goggles that can handle its 186 MPH top speed is highly recommended.
