2018 Aston Martin Vantage Release Date, Specs News: Teaser Confirms Debut on Nov. 21
The 2018 Aston Martin Vantage will make its world premiere later this month. Before the overhauled British sports car is unveiled, a few details have already been revealed.
Earlier this week, Aston Martin released a new teaser image for the next-generation Vantage. The promotional picture does not feature the sports car; instead, it focuses on the piercing blue eyes of a wolf. The social media post came with the hashtag #BeautifulWontBeTamed and confirmed the 2018 Aston Martin Vantage's debut on Tuesday, Nov. 21.
The British automaker previously released two other teaser images, showing the new Vantage's headlights and taillights albeit under drapes.
Though official details for the upcoming sports car have not been revealed yet, it is expected to be heavily inspired by the bespoke DB10 coupe used by James Bond in the 2015 movie "Spectre."
According to Autocar, the 2018 Vantage will be built using a new aluminum architecture, which is a shorter version of the platform used by the DB11.
The entry-level sports car will be powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine produced by Mercedes-AMG. It will produce 503 horsepower and 498 pound-feet of torque. The powertrain will be mated with either a six-speed manual transmission or a dual-clutch automatic gearbox.
In terms of speed, it will be able to go from 0 to 62 miles per hour (mph) in about four seconds and attain a top speed of 187 mph. These numbers are a significant improvement compared to the Vantage's predecessor which had a time of 4.8 seconds.
Sometime later, Aston Martin will also offer the 2018 Vantage with a 5.2-liter twin-turbocharged V12 engine. This will be the same powertrain used by the V12 DB11.
Official details for the 2018 Aston Martin Vantage will be announced during the press event on Nov. 21. The upcoming sports car is also expected to make an appearance at the Los Angeles Auto Show at the end of the month.

Laser-based broadband connection will let you watch Earth-based TV shows on the moon
A new Internet communications system for space has been tested for the second time, paving the way for faster extraterrestrial communication. (Photo : NASA) An Internet Wi-Fi system for the moon is significantly faster than home connections here on Earth. The Lunar Laser Communication Demonstration (LLCD) uses lasers to send Internet service around 239,000 miles from the Earth hto our lunar companion. Investigators were able to upload data at top speeds over 19 megabytes per second (Mbps), and download information at 600 Mbps. This would allow users on the lunar surface to copy more than 100 average songs every second. NASA uses radio waves to carry data to and from satellites, observatories and the International Space Station. As the need to transmit vast quantities of data becomes more common, this method of communication is less able to meet demands. Photographs and videos can already be transmitted on the test system, and developers are ...
Retro Robot from the 1920s May Get 2nd Chance at Life
Britain's first robot was a dazzling sight to behold, with broad shoulders, light-bulb eyes and a thick-barreled chest. On Sept. 20, 1928, Eric, as the robot was named, was unveiled before members of the Society for Model Engineers' annual convention. Weighing more than half a ton and requiring 35,000 volts of electricity, the impressive figure fascinated audiences. Eric then embarked on a tour that took him around the world, and the futuristic bot became an international sensation. But years later, Eric was lost, and his fate remains a mystery. Now, London's Science Museum is running a Kickstarter campaign in hopes of raising money to rebuild Eric. He will join more than 100 other bots that copy the human form (known as humanoid robots) as part of the museum's upcoming exhibit on robots. [ The 6 Strangest Robots Ever Created ] "Eric was everything you'd imagine a robot to be," said Ben Russell, lead curator for the exhibit, which will display ...
