<p>Aston Martin has confirmed that Adrian Newey will take over as team principal from the 2026 Formula 1 season, marking a fresh chapter as the team prepares for major rule changes. Newey joined the team in March 2025 as managing technical partner after his long stint at Red Bull, where he oversaw car design and engineering. His new role mixes technical leadership with daily team management and race weekend duties. The move is part of a broader internal shake-up aimed at tightening direction before the 2026 regulations arrive. It also marks the first time Newey steps into a full leadership role in Formula 1, taking him beyond design responsibilities and into complete sporting management.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/motorsport-news/mick-schumacher-to-make-indycar-debut-with-rll-racing-in-2026-122288/">Mick Schumacher to Make IndyCar Debut with RLL Racing in 2026</a></p><p>Aston Martin has also announced that Andy Cowell will step away from the team principal and CEO roles to become chief strategy officer. Cowell joined in 2024 to help prepare the squad for its full works future, with a focus on structure and power unit integration. His move follows internal discussions with Newey about how responsibilities should be shared. Cowell’s background in powertrain engineering differs from Newey’s chassis-led approach, and the new structure reflects that by giving Newey trackside control while Cowell oversees long-term planning.</p><p><img src="https://images.autox.com/uploads/2024/09/F1-Adrian-Newey-Aston-Martin-.jpg" alt="F1 Adrian Newey with Aston Martin " style="width: 100%; height: auto;"></p><p>The team has described the changes as a joint decision supported by senior leadership, including Executive Chairman Lawrence Stroll. Stroll noted that Cowell has been central in building the team’s current setup and helping establish a stable foundation. With Newey now taking a bigger technical lead, Aston Martin aims to create a clearer development path and a more unified direction across its racing and factory departments as it approaches the next rules cycle.</p><p>Newey’s track record includes title-winning work at Williams, McLaren, and Red Bull, giving him decades of experience in concept design, aerodynamics, and performance development. His expanded responsibilities at Aston Martin will connect the design office more closely with race operations, improving communication between planning teams and track engineers. This link is expected to shape the team’s preparation for 2026 as it adjusts to new engine, energy, and chassis regulations.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/motorsport-news/f1-how-mclarens-las-vegas-dsq-drama-reopens-the-verstappen-title-chase-122284/">F1: How McLaren’s Las Vegas DSQ Drama Reopens the Verstappen Title Chase</a></p><p>The 2026 Formula 1 season will bring major regulatory changes and an extra team on the grid, reshaping the competitive landscape. Aston Martin’s leadership overhaul, with Newey managing race operations and Cowell steering long-term strategy, creates a dual-approach structure aimed at steady progress. The team believes this setup will help it move into the next era of Formula 1 with more clarity and a stronger development direction.</p>

F1: Aston Martin Names Adrian Newey Team Principal Ahead of 2026 Season

Aston Martin appoints Adrian Newey as team principal from 2026, with Andy Cowell shifting to strategy. The restructure sets the team’s direction for the new F1 regulations.

<p>
The Aston Martin DBX is already a winner, having been crowned our Performance Car of the Year in 2021 – the first SUV to earn that accolade.</p>

<p>This one is a DBX on steroids. 707 steroids to be specific – that’s the number of horses under the hood. The AMG-sourced 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 that gulps air from that massive Aston Martin signature grille also produces 900 Nm of twisting force, all of which adds up to a 0-100 km/h acceleration time of 3.3 seconds and a top speed of 310km/h. But the numbers tell only part of the story.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/aston-martin-dbx-s-unveiled-as-the-brands-most-powerful-suv-with-717bhp-twin-turbo-v8-120573/">Aston Martin DBX S Unveiled as the Brand's Most Powerful SUV with 717bhp Twin-turbo V8</a></p>

<p>The real appeal of the DBX is the way it makes you feel, right from the way it makes you go a bit weak in the knees as you approach it – after all, those Aston Martin design cues have been executed to perfection in their SUV avatar – then there’s the cabin, which is appointed in hand-stitched leather from top to bottom, and, of course, the icing on the cake is how the DBX goes down the road. This is truly an Aston Martin that you can use on our roads. The ride on the road is quite compliant, making it a usable everyday machine – if you can pull off that James Bond look on a daily basis that is.</p>

<p>On the track, it feels like a proper sports car – not like a lumbering SUV. They’ve really done an amazing job with this chassis and the steering. It dives into corners, rotates around its axis and powers out like a machine that feels half its size. The only trouble is that it’ll make a dent in your pocket that’s well north of the four crore mark, which means that only the very select few will ever experience the combination of looks, quality and driving pleasure that the DBX delivers.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/f1-inspired-aston-martin-dbx707-amr24-edition-breaks-cover-117666/">F1-inspired Aston Martin DBX707 AMR24 Edition Breaks Cover</a></p>

<p>Aston Martin has also done an amazing job over the years of improving the functionality and layout of its cabins, and I’m kicking myself for not trying out the Apple CarPlay Ultra, since the DBX is the first vehicle in the world that’s given Apple access not only to the infotainment screen but also the instrument cluster. I guess I’ll just have to drive the DBX again to try it – I better work on that Sean Connery accent in the meantime…

2026 Aston Martin Vantage S Debuts Globally with AMG-Powered Twin-Turbo V8 Engine

Aston Martin’s 680bhp Vantage S will make its public debut at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed, featuring sharper dynamics and a more aggressive design.

<p>Aston Martin has debuted a highly limited, track-exclusive version of the Valkyrie hypercar, timed just ahead of this year’s 24 Hours of Le Mans. Developed specifically for non-competitive use, this variant – dubbed the Valkyrie LM – borrows extensively from the brand’s endurance racing machine that competes in both the FIA WEC and IMSA WeatherTech Championship. While it is not homologated for racing, it maintains much of the same engineering and performance DNA. Adam Carter, Aston Martin’s Head of Endurance Motorsport, emphasised that the LM edition is virtually identical to the race-spec car, with only minor alterations made to ensure it is suitable for customers and track-day use.</p><h2>Aston Martin Valkyrie LM: Mechanical Setup</h2><p>The Valkyrie LM delivers performance nearly identical to its competition-spec counterpart, but with subtle refinements. At its core is a recalibrated version of the iconic Cosworth-built 6.5-litre naturally aspirated V12 engine. Although it maintains the same race-regulated power figure of 697bhp, the engine has been reworked to support lean-burn efficiency and now runs on standard high-octane pump fuel, rather than specialised race blends.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/aston-martin-unveils-palm-beach-edition-db12-volante-with-bespoke-coastal-styling-120883/">Aston Martin Unveils Palm Beach Edition DB12 Volante with Bespoke Coastal Styling</a><br></p><p>Unlike the endurance racer, the LM strips away racing-specific systems such as&nbsp;the closed-loop torque control setup,&nbsp;ballast,&nbsp;FIA-mandated electronics, and&nbsp;torque sensors – features required for regulation compliance but unnecessary for customer track use. Instead, an open-loop system has been adopted to deliver a more intuitive and driver-friendly throttle response. <br><br>Power continues to be routed to the rear wheels through a seven-speed sequential transmission with paddle shifters, ensuring rapid gear changes. The suspension system remains race-bred with double wishbones front and rear, pushrod-actuated torsion bar springs, and adjustable central and side dampers.</p><h2>Aston Martin Valkyrie LM: Interior Layout</h2><p>The cockpit has been designed with a strong focus on safety, visibility, and ease of access. It includes a bespoke carbon-fibre racing seat that offers integrated shoulder support and padded headrest surrounds. The hypercar also features a custom user interface tailored specifically for non-competitive track environments.</p><p>

    </div>
  </p><p>A six-point harness compliant with FIA 8853 standards and a built-in fire suppression system enhance occupant safety. The steering wheel also integrates a driver information display along with shift indicator lights for added functionality.</p><h2>“Fly In and Drive” Programme: What Is It?</h2><p>Aston Martin is offering Valkyrie LM buyers a choice between traditional ownership and an exclusive, concierge-style “fly in and drive” programme.

Aston Martin Unveils Exclusive Valkyrie LM Track-Only Le Mans Hypercar for Customers

Aston Martin Valkyrie LM delivers performance nearly identical to its competition-spec counterpart, but with subtle refinements.

<p>The Palm Beach Edition of the Aston Martin DB12 Volante shows what luxury looks like in the Florida sun.&nbsp;It is created as a one-off by Aston Martin’s customisation arm&nbsp;and has beach-inspired details. The exterior stands out with its unique Frosted Glass Blue paint, designed to shimmer like the Florida sun. The effect&nbsp;comes from tiny glass flakes mixed into the top layer, giving the car a soft, glowing finish.&nbsp;Aston Martin says this look can only be achieved by hand-spraying the paint,&nbsp;highlighting the attention to detail behind the design. The DB12 Volante Palm Beach&nbsp;Edition also sports a bold contrasting pinstripe along the front splitter, side sills,&nbsp;and rear bumper, creating a striking contrast with the main body colour. This eye-catching&nbsp;detail is paired with sleek jet-black, diamond-turned alloy wheels that&nbsp;add a touch of performance-inspired elegance to the overall design.</p><p>

Apple CarPlay Ultra is the Next-Gen Infotainment System, Marks Debut with Aston Martin

CarPlay Ultra, an enhanced version of Apple CarPlay, aims to provide the best in-car experience. Hyundai, Kia, and Genesis are also planning to adopt the system in their models soon.

<p>Aston Martin has introduced the DBX S, its most powerful SUV to date, featuring a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine producing 717bhp and 900Nm of torque. This marks a 157bhp increase over the standard DBX, positioning the S variant as the performance flagship in the lineup. Alongside the upgraded powertrain, the DBX S receives chassis, suspension, and electronic tuning updates to handle the added performance. It also features design tweaks, including a revised front grille, new splitter, and larger quad exhausts. The interior remains largely unchanged but includes model-specific detailing. With these enhancements, the DBX S combines everyday usability with significantly improved performance, targeting rivals in the high-performance luxury SUV segment such as the Lamborghini Urus and Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT.&nbsp;Deliveries are expected to begin in the fourth quarter of this year.</p><h2>Aston Martin DBX S: Under the Hood</h2><p>The model's 4.0-litre V8, now enhanced with turbocharger technology, puts out an impressive 717bhp. Throttle mapping has been sharpened, contributing to quicker engine response and a 0–100km/h sprint of just 3.3 seconds. An available performance exhaust system allows the engine’s raw sound to come through more clearly. In addition to increased power, Aston Martin has trimmed weight and recalibrated the transmission for snappier gear changes and a more alert driving feel.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/2026-aston-martin-vanquish-volante-unveiled-globally-with-823bhp-twin-turbo-v12-120238/">2026 Aston Martin Vanquish Volante Unveiled Globally with 823bhp Twin-Turbo V12</a><br></p><p>The active all-wheel-drive system has also been retuned to vary torque distribution more precisely based on road conditions. Coupled with updated air suspension and improved roll control, these changes shift the DBX S’s focus toward delivering a more connected and refined driving experience rather than chasing pure performance stats.<br></p><h2>Aston Martin DBX S: Exterior</h2><p>The Aston Martin DBX S builds upon the DBX707 with a more focused design and performance-oriented upgrades. It introduces a revised front grille finished in black, with an optional lightweight polycarbonate honeycomb insert reminiscent of the DBS 770 Ultimate.</p><p>

  </p><p>Aerodynamic tweaks – such as an updated rear diffuser, a reshaped front splitter, and functional air-channelling side skirts – enhance both airflow efficiency and visual presence. Buyers can add carbon fibre detailing to components like the mirrors and side strakes for a sharper look. A discreet ‘S’ badge on the fenders hints at its enhanced capabilities without being overly flashy. The SUV also offers 23-inch forged magnesium wheels and a carbon fibre roof, which removes roof rails and cuts nearly 18.14 kg from the vehicle’s mass, helping improve balance and lower its centre of gravity.</p><p><strong>Also Read:&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://www.autox.com/news/car-news/aston-martin-vanquish-launched-at-rs-885-crore-in-india-120211/">Aston Martin Vanquish Launched at Rs 8.85 Crore in India</a></p><p>Steering has been re-engineered with a 4% faster ratio, resulting in a tighter turning radius by about 1.6 ft and more responsive handling in confined spaces. The suspension setup mirrors the upgraded air system used in the DBX707, delivering better road feedback and control.  Exterior finish options include bold hues like Podium Green, Trophy Silver, and Rosso Corsa Red.</p><h2>Aston Martin DBX S: What's Inside?</h2><p>Inside, the DBX S features redesigned sport seats with a herringbone stitch pattern that can be optionally extended to the roof lining, especially when the carbon roof is specified. Alcantara is the primary trim for the dashboard, seats, centre console, and headliner, though customers can swap in semi-aniline leather for the bolsters or the entire interior if preferred.</p><p>

Red seatbelts serve as a subtle nod to the vehicle’s sporting character, complemented by embroidered ‘S’ logos on the engine plaque, seats, and door sills.</p>
