2011 Aston Martin V12 Zagato Concept

Aston Martin has unveiled the V12 Zagato Concept, a modern interpretation of the famous Aston Martin and Zagato collaboration, in the 50th anniversary year of the iconic DB4GT Zagato. The all-new V12 Zagato is being introduced at the 2011 Villa D’Este Concours, and will appear in the form of an endurance race car to compete at the Nürburgring 24 hour race on 25/26 June.

The V12 Zagato features a new handcrafted aluminum body, which delivers a beautiful and muscular design not possible using pre-formed panel technique. Using the influences and skill of nearly 100 years of heritage in the craft, every aluminum panel was formed using an English wheel and traditionally crafted body bucks. Designed for the focused driver, the V12 Zagato has been honed with pure driving enjoyment in mind. The V12 Zagato combines Aston Martin’s most dynamic bonded aluminum platform with the power of the 6.0-litre V12 engine producing 510 bhp (380 kW / 517 PS), and 570 Nm (420 lb ft) of torque.
