Sometimes, in order to move forward, it is necessary to take a step back and become aware of the bigger picture. By looking back at their own story as well as their aim for the future, Aston Martin drew inspiration to create an engineering wonder that reflects this rich history and values. And as such, Aston Martin’s exclusive V12 Speedster came to be a reality.
‘Q by Aston Martin’, the specialised customization service, was the mastermind behind the V12 Speedster, powered by the iconic 5.2-litre V12 Twin-Turbo engine, capable of generating an output of 700 PS and 753 Nm of torque. In turn, the engine is mated to a ZF 8-speed automatic transmission, providing an acceleration of 0-62 mph in 3.4 seconds, reaching a top speed of 198 mph. An impressive achievement for a car with no roof nor windscreen.

As a demonstration of Aston Martin’s long sporting heritage, the V12 Speedster offers a special DBR1 personalization, presenting its special Racing Green paint finish and leather, among other features. As a newly added specification, satin black diamond turned 21-inch centre lock wheels are present in the design as well. These cleverly integrated elements truly act as a homage to the Le Mans winning race car.
The Aston Martin V12 Speedster offers a visceral driving experience with no lack of elegance and artistry. Emotion and exclusivity are found in every detail, from its conceptualization to its realisation. It’s no wonder only 88 examples are to be built, for experiencing this work of art is a true luxury.
