Aston Martin has been seen testing its DBS successor again, and some cloaking apparatus has been removed since the last sighting.
Unlike the DB12 and the new Vantage, whose design has obviously evolved from their respective previous models, the successor to the DBS, which is rumoured to revive the Vanquish’s nameplate, appears to have a substantially new design.
At the front, the inlet is even wider than the DBS, a style that debuted in 2018 as the DBS Superleggera. The headlights seem to follow a similar theme to that used on the DB12 and the new Vantage, and a traditional touring hood set out to update the DBS’s giant carbon-fiber component, which doubles as front fenders.
The new car feels longer than the DBS and its C-pillars feature an older design compared to the DBS’s floating roof design. The rear end looks much thicker, with some influences likely coming from last year’s excellent Valor. coupe.
