2015 Aston Martin DB9 GT to Debut at Pebble Beach
Aston Martin is bringing quite a fleet of interesting vehicles to the Pebble Beach Concours this year including the new DB9 GT, DBX concept, Lagonda sedan and the Vulcan race car.
The most important car that Aston Martin will bring to the weeklong love fest of exotic and high-priced motoring is the new DB9 GT. Now making 540 hp thanks to its updated 6.0-liter V12 engine, the DB9 GT holds the distinction of being the most powerful DB9 ever made. Based on the few photos Aston Martin has shared, the new DB9 GT also features a sporty interior with orange accents and carbon fiber trim.
Aston Martin will also make several North American debuts at Pebble Beach including the new DBX concept. This crossover has already been greenlit for production, and shows off the exotic automaker’s vision to expand into other segments.

The ultra cool Vulcan race car will also make an appearance at Pebble Beach. The photos shared by Aston Martin show off a slightly different look for the track-only vehicle. Now sporting a blue and black livery that brings to mind the comic-book hero Nightwing, the Vulcan uses a 7.0-liter V12 engine that makes more than 800 hp.
Finally, the ultra exclusive Lagonda Taraf sedan will be in attendance over at Pebble Beach. Limited to just 200 units and reserved for buyers in the Middle East, this four-door super-luxurious sedan uses a 6.0-liter V12 engine.
More details about the cars will be revealed in mid August during the Monterey car week.
