    Update on Aston Martin, Ferrari, & McLaren

    Just posted a new blog on Aston Martin, Ferrari, & McLaren

    DBX doesn't seem to be the savior it was touted to be.  Valkyrie development is quite the ugly saga.  Ferrari seems to be going all in on EV.

    very interesting on AM ! tks ! 


    Re: Update on Aston Martin, Ferrari, & McLaren

    Great write up. I'm sad to learn that the Valhalla project has lost steam, the technical aspect seemed so promising and the design was just stunning. When AM showed the trio with the Vanquish concept I remember thinking back to the Lotus presentation in 2010, and hoping they didn't go down the same route. Other parallels are also there, I mean Lotus did have an F1 team too.

    It is quite sad.  Could have been a great car.

    Is the implication here that the program is definitely dead? Smiley

    Valhalla isn't dead, they are still talking about doing it, only issue I there's basically no development work going on.


    Re: Update on Aston Martin, Ferrari, & McLaren

    Are niche auto manufacturers in jeopardy because of the eventual total electrification of the automobile industry?

    The purpose of life is to enjoy the moment.

    Got it. Hopefully they find a way to keep it afloat.
