Exciting news is coming from the automobile world, with a mix of revamped favorites, electrified models, and the ones hitting Turkish roads. Here’s a look at the new cars coming in 2025.
New Cars Coming in 2025
Aston Martin Vanquish: The Brand’s Fastest Production Model
The Vanquish, named after “Vanishing,” will launch in 2025 with a completely revamped generation. Equipped with a 5.2-liter twin-turbo V12 engine from Mercedes-AMG, it delivers 835 horsepower and 1000 Nm of torque. This makes it the fastest series production car in Aston Martin’s history, reaching a top speed of 345 km/h. The car features a ZF 8-speed automatic transmission and an electronic differential lock (e-diff) for optimized speed.
The 2025 Aston Martin Vanquish honors the legacy of Le Mans cars with its sharply sloping rear design and boasts 75 percent greater torsional rigidity than the previous flagship, the DBS 770 Ultimate, thanks to reinforced underbody panels. This enhances body stiffness and improves control over weight shifts. Enhanced comfort and a smoother powertrain make this model worthy of its $420,000 price tag (tax-free). Aston Martin plans to produce 1,000 units annually.
