Here's What The 2015 Aston Martin Lagonda Super Sedan Looks Like

Aston Martin has revealed the first official images of the production version of its new Lagonda ultra-luxury sedan, or super saloon as the British automaker calls it.

Though this particular model will be sold in extremely limited numbers by invitation only to clients in the Middle East, reviving the legendary Lagonda nameplate is the start of a larger initiative by Aston Martin. Design director Marek Reichman said at a press event in Scotland this summer that the company aims to grow its portfolio with other vehicles wearing the Lagonda name.

This is the first new Lagonda sedan in 25 years. It was inspired by one of the same name that debuted in 1976 and was made through 1990. Fewer than 650 were produced.

The wedge-shaped design on the original Lagonda was radical in its day. It also was reportedly the first car in the world to use computerized engine management and a digital instrument panel. But the car was plagued with problems, particularly as related to the newfangled digital technology.

Aston Martin has released very few details about the new Lagonda, except to say that it will be built using the same lightweight aluminum architecture as seen on the Vanquish and other current models. The companys 6.0-liter V12 is a likely choice for the engine, given that Riechman said the sedan will offer exceedingly high levels of performance.

The company has not said when the first deliveries will be made, nor how much the super sedan will cost. But given how pricey the previous Lagonda was, some speculate the new version will run at least $500,000.
