Aston Martin DB12
Introduced in 2016, the DB11 gets a substantial redesign and a name change for 2024. Meet the new DB12, which packs a twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 (671 horsepower) and a revised eight-speed transmission. The obsolete, Mercedes-sourced infotainment system has been replaced by a brand new system developed in-house, complete with 3D navigation, over-the-air updates and a mobile app). This is the car that finally brings Aston Martin into the digital age.
