Here's the first Aston Martin's mid-engined car production series shown in Geneva

Aston Martin Vanquish has always been a great grand tourer, but it is not on the same level as other supercars, like Ferrari or McLaren.

But it seems that it will change soon, because the British automotive manufacturer has just inaugurated the Aston Martin Vanquish Vision Concept at the Geneva International  Motor Show 2019 and served as a preview for the upcoming mid-engine supercar of British manufacturers.

These new Vanquish supercar will be placed under the Valkyrie and 003 in a row of Aston Martin cars and will compete with the Ferrari F8 Tributo and McLaren 720S.

Aston Martin stores a lot of core details from the Vanquish Vision Concept, but has confirmed that it will feature the new V6 engine that will debut in the form of a hybrid turbo in 003 hypercar.

Aston Martin has also announced that Vanquish Vision Concept does not use monocoque carbon fiber chassis like Valkyrie and 003, and instead uses a special aluminum chassis. This platform will be cheaper and easier to produce than carbon fiber and allows Aston Martin to price at the same level as its competitors.

"First, how nice it is to revive the name Vanquish," said Aston Martin CEO Andy Palmer about the vehicle. "Synonymous with our flagship model, it feels very appropriate to install it on a car that is so significant."

Furthermore he said, that the Vanquish Vision Concept marks another important moment in the history of Aston Martin, and another critical step in realizing the Second Century Plan. Our first mid-engine supercar production will be a transformational moment for the brand, because it is a car that will drive the Aston Martin to the market sector which is traditionally seen as the center of luxury sports cars.
Design of Aston Martin Vanquish Vision Concept has a clear resemblance to Valkyrie. This is very clear on the front of the vehicle, where there are oval shaped headlights similar to the Valkyrie, and the aerodynamic front bumper with the splitter. At the rear, this supercar gets a pair of tailpipes that come out between the lights. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | BROBILE | MOTOR1]
