New Aston Martin sports car will speak with an English accent

James Bond would be so proud.

Aston Martin will reveal its next model on May 24, the brand has confirmed.

It will be the successor to the current DB11 grand tourer, but the company says “grand is not enough” to describe it.

Shadowy teaser images released indicate that it is an update of the DB11, rather than an all-new car, but Aston Martin said it heralds “the start of the ultra-luxury British brand’s next generation.”
