Aston Martin showed the conceptual convertible DBR22. It is inspired by the DB3S from 1952 and was developed for the Monterey show. The retro design also recalls another legendary model of the British brand - DBR1, which was a winner at Le Mans in 1959 with drivers Carroll Shelby and Roy Salvadori.
The body of DBR22 is made of carbon and manufactured on a 3D printer. The rear frame is made of aluminum, but significantly lightened and aerodynamic.
Under the front hood is a 5.2-liter twin-turbo V12 engine with 715 hp and a maximum torque of 753 Nm. The gearbox is an 8-speed automatic and allows acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h in about 3.6 seconds. The top speed reaches the impressive 319 km/h.
