2023 Aston Martin V12 Vantage, Review & Details

The end of an era: The 2023 Aston Martin V12 Vantage is the last of its kind, strictly limited, and faster than ever. It doesn’t come as a roadster, only as a coupe. The price? Her Majesty’s Secret!

An Aston Martin V12 Vantage will be leaving in 2022 for the last time the production halls in British Gaydon – in a strictly limited series of only 333 pieces. The technical data of the 5.2-liter twelve-cylinder engine are given as 700 hp (515 kW) and 753 Newton meters.

The switching work is done by an eight-speed automatic, whose racing software is intended to achieve switching times on double-clutch level. A mechanical differential lock distributes the power to the rear wheels. Equipped in this way, the rear-wheel-drive Aston should be able to sprint from zero to 100 km/h in 3.5 seconds. The propulsion only ends at 322 km/h.

The torsional rigidity of the Vantage has been improved for better handling. Adaptive dampers and an additional spring set on the rear axle should ensure the best possible compromise between performance and comfort. The standard scope also includes the carbon-ceramic brake system, which can withstand temperatures of up to 800 degrees Celsius without fading. In addition, customers of the Aston Martin V12 Vantage (2022) can choose between two exclusive 21-inch rim designs. Michelin Pilot Sport 4S sports tires are always factory-fitted.

So that the performance of the 2023 Aston Martin V12 Vantage is immediately recognizable from the outside, the British have widened the body and track of the coupé by 40 millimeters. A front splitter is emblazoned on the front bumper. In addition, the air intakes have been enlarged and the hood has been expanded to include an air intake.

The rear also offers exclusive details: two tailpipes are located in the middle of the diffuser. A large spoiler, which generates up to 204 kilograms of contact pressure at top speed with the further aerodynamic adjustments of the V12 Vantage, rounds off the package. Of course, the interior also gets an exclusive V12 paint job: leather-covered carbon sports seats are standard.

The further and already familiar interior can be adjusted according to the customer’s wishes. Incidentally, something that also applies to the exterior. All 333 planned 2023 Aston Martin V12 Vantage units have already been reserved since the announcement in December 2021. The waiting list is full, the price is unknown and a V12 Roadster is out of the question.

New KIA e-Niro already has a price in Spain

Image
A few months after its official presentation, KIA opened the order books for the new e-Niro in Spain. The revamped compact SUV, which now sits on the K3 platform already seen in the latest Hyundai Elantra, is slightly longer (6.5 centimeters) than its predecessor and  debuts a completely revamped exterior and interior design . However, mechanically there are not too many changes. The second-generation KIA e-Niro is equipped with a 204 hp (150 kW) and 255 Nm engine coupled to the front axle, thanks to which it can complete the 0 to 100 km/h in 7.8 seconds. Its battery pack will have a capacity of 64.8 kWh, enough to approve a maximum of  463 km WLTP  (its official consumption is 15.9 kWh/100 km), a minimal improvement compared to the 455 km WLTP achieved by its predecessor which tells us that, despite the use of a new platform, the powertrain is likely to be very similar. As for the load, for the moment it has only been revealed that it  will take 43 minutes to go from 10 to 80%  conn

VW thinks price war in China will lead to many bankruptcies

Image
Ralf Brandstätter, CEO of the Volkswagen Group in China , believes that the electric car market is “overheating”, with high investments and aggressive discounts that could threaten the stability of the sector. In particular, he points out that the pressure to which some manufacturers are subjected could lead to their demise. This situation mainly affects younger brands: according to the manager, many new players will urgently have to seek additional capital investment, or else they will go  bankrupt in the short term .  “We are facing a situation where the market is overheating. The consolidation of the playing field is in full swing. Although without making direct mention of Tesla, Brandstätter  is very critical of the price war that has rocked the Chinese market in recent months .  “Currently, there are more than 120 automakers in the [electric vehicle] market, and around 150 new models will be launched by 2023.
