Aston Martin Announces New V12 Engine for 2024
In a surprising move that goes against the current trend of reducing liters and cylinders in favor of electrified efficiency, Aston Martin has announced that it will introduce a new V12 engine in 2024. This decision has sparked excitement among die-hard internal combustion enthusiasts who have been eagerly awaiting the news.
The new V12 engine is expected to be a twin-turbo unit capable of producing an impressive 823 horsepower and 737 lb-ft of torque, significantly higher than the current model’s 759 hp and 663 lb-ft. Aston Martin has described this engine as a “complete redesign,” featuring a reinforced cylinder block and connecting rods, redesigned cylinder heads with new camshafts, and improved intake and exhaust ports. The engine will also feature repositioned spark plugs, higher flow fuel injectors, and faster-spinning turbos for improved performance and throttle response.
As expected from Aston Martin, the new V12 engine will be exclusive and hand-built, reserved only for the company’s “most exclusive and limited availability models.” The company has promised to produce the engine in strictly limited quantities, adding to its exclusivity and allure. The new V12 engine will make its debut in a flagship car set to be unveiled later this year, likely to be the new Vanquish, according to sources.
Despite the trend towards electrification in the automotive industry, Aston Martin’s decision to introduce a new V12 engine demonstrates the company’s commitment to providing enthusiasts with a truly engaging driving experience. The announcement has already generated significant interest among automotive enthusiasts and industry experts, who are eagerly anticipating the unveiling of the new flagship model.
In addition to the new V12 engine, Aston Martin has also hinted at the possibility of further innovations and developments in the near future. The company’s focus on performance, luxury, and exclusivity has garnered it a loyal following of enthusiasts and collectors, who are eagerly awaiting the release of the new flagship model.
