Aston Martin’s current VH architecture has been around since the early 2000s and now it’s being reported that Aston Martin is working on an all-new architecture that will debut with the next-generation DB9.
According to Auto Express, the next-generation DB9 is going to arrive in 2016 with a new architecture that will use more aluminum to improve the vehicle’s curb weight. “We are engineering a completely new architecture and technologies to ensure that our next generation of sports cars is at the forefront of design, performance and technology,” Aston Martin CFO Hanno Kirner stated.

The DB9 is also expected to be powered by an AMG engine, which could end up being the same twin-turbocharged 4.0L V8 as the upcoming AMG GT sports car.
