The Gumball 3000 supercar journey is expected to gather more than 100 supercars from all over the world. The convoy will depart from Vietnam on September 14, starting at Le Loi Boulevard (HCMC), then passing through Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia and ending in Singapore.
This event had no shortage of famous supercars from many brands such as Bugatti, Pagani, Koenigsegg, Ferrari, McLaren, Lamborghini, Maserati...
However, there was only one Aston Martin attending the event this time. This car was the DB12.
This is considered a reasonable choice for 2 members of British and Irish nationality. With a journey of more than 4,800km, passing through 5 countries in 10 days, the hard seats of high-speed supercars can easily cause back pain for the driver. However, the seats of the Aston Martin DB12 are quite soft, creating comfort for the people sitting in the car.
According to the announcement from Gumball 3000, this Aston Martin DB12 is blue.
Compared to its predecessor, the DB11, the DB12 has a larger grille and new LED headlights. The DB12 also has a redesigned interior and a completely new infotainment system that can support Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
This luxury sports car is equipped with a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine. This engine helps the DB12 produce 671 horsepower and a maximum torque of 800 Nm.
The car is equipped with larger turbochargers and an improved cooling system, helping the Aston Martin DB12 accelerate from a standstill to 100 km/h in just 3.6 seconds and reach a top speed of 325 km/h.
