Aston Martin introduces the new Aston Martin Virage - supremely stylish and powerful, yet juxtaposed as an understated sports car. The marque can now present customers having a class-leading variety, all with distinctive characters, however with the exact same unique Aston Martin soul and luxurious.
Breathtaking, dynamic and prestigious, the Aston Martin Virage combines outright sports automobile overall performance with luxury, comfort and refinement. The front mid-mounted V12 engine's torque delivery delivers outstanding performance, coupled with all the car's inherent agility and ideal bodyweight distribution delivering the ideal harmony in between outright sports activities vehicle efficiency and trademark sporting luxury exemplified by modern Aston Martins.
Aston Martin CEO, Dr Ulrich Bez mentioned: "100 decades of automotive background has demonstrated that evolution delivers the most effective options in time. So it is with Virage; it can be the following level of evolution within our VH architecture technique and it does everything with all the perfection that you simply would anticipate nowadays. It really is the perfect harmony of opposites."
The Aston Martin Virage sits amongst the enduringly stylish DB9 and overtly sporting DBS, providing buyers having a vehicle that stays deluxe and understated but delivers increased overall performance and crucially performance that is continually accessible for easy driving. Aston Martin's revered hand-built six.0 litre V12 engine generates 490 bhp (365 kW/497 PS) and 570 nM (420 lb. Ft) of torque and via its carbon fibre prop shaft, is mated to a six-speed Touchtronic II automated transmission mounted around the transaxle contributing to excellent 50:50 pounds balance.
The Aston Martin Virage's dynamics have been tuned to provide an engaging however a lot more refined driving experience, exactly where the driver can extract the maximum efficiency through the automobile with higher ease. A recently created Adaptive Damping System (Advertisements) intelligently 'reads' the street to provide optimum street keeping, adapting to various situations. The technique now selects up to 5 different stiffness settings inside typical mode, along with a additional five stiffer settings within sport mode.
Aiding driver manage, a 'Sport' button to the facia enables the driver to pick a sharper throttle response and quicker gear modifications while also keeping the gears without having immediately shifting up at the revolution limiter.
Aston Martin Virage are going to be delivered with Carbon Ceramic Matrix (CCM) brakes as standard - bucking the trend in this market - supplying progressive and massive stopping energy. Potent, resistant to fade and a lot lighter than standard cast-iron discs, the CCM braking method means that not just will be the overall vehicle body weight reduced, but the bodyweight conserving at each wheel means that a much better stability between experience comfort and dealing with may be struck. Reduce rotational mass also offers enhanced acceleration.
Aston Martin Virage capitalises about the technology from your DBS and unites it with the comfort and refinement discovered within the DB9 and Rapide. Aston Martin's own bonded aluminium 'VH' architecture that forms the backbone with the marque's sports activities automobiles, takes inspiration from the aerospace business where excess fat reduction is the final goal. Powerful but light, the inherent properties of modular aluminium lend by themselves properly to an particularly rigid and versatile platform which makes it possible for the production of the Aston Martin Virage coupe and Volante.
The Aston Martin Virage sits minimal and wide asserting the power which lies beneath; single bi-xenon headlamps comply with the lines of the car's flanks to offer a a lot more crisp and modern appear from the front. A new aluminium metal front grille, inspired by the One-77, features five horizontal vanes which are chamfered creating an aerofoil profile. The brand new front bumper is pure and relieves the car of any visual complexities, contributing for the general simplicity of design. The front wings distinguish the Aston Martin Virage from its stable mates housing a brand new modern day interpretation with the Aston Martin iconic aspect strake housing 6 LEDs elegantly forming the aspect repeater. Aston Martin Virage's aspect sills carry the simplicity from the front bumper through towards the rear diffuser which houses a body-coloured blade accentuating the width of the automobile.
As drivers and passengers open the signature swan wing doorways, they are greeted by the aroma of seven hides of the very best Bridge of Weir leather expertly hand stitched by craftsmen. Inspiration has long been taken from luxury leather items to create a pinstripe welt which flows down both side from the facia and along the seat and door, drawing your eye by means of the vehicle. Each Aston Martin Virage may have 70 man hrs of professional craftsmanship lavished to the interior alone to create the well-known sophisticated Aston Martin interior. In all, over 200 guy hrs will probably be invested handcrafting the Virage at Aston Martin's international headquarters in Gaydon, Warwickshire, England because it turns into the tenth key creation car to become built there within the room of much less than eight many years.
Simplicity runs all through the auto using the new fully integrated Satellite Navigation technique that has been created along with Garmin. The new method simplifies operation via the current four-way joystick mounted around the facia. A new six.five inch huge resolution show makes use of the most recent graphics and maps to visually and aurally guide the driver to their destination.
Standard gear includes heated seats (Sports activities seats only), cruise control, satellite navigation, Bluetooth telephone planning plus the potent 700W Aston Martin Premium Audio Program with Dolby® Professional Logic II® and full iPod® integration.
