Crash this beauty? James Bond's concept DB10 Aston debuts in Spectre

Re: Jag

That was a car that needed to be made, but presumably the top brass at Jag didn't think that a hybrid hypercar* would sell due to being too green, too new, or something.

Then we see the LaFerrari, 918 and P1 being described as the Holy Trinity; Jag could have beaten them to the punch with that.

(if I remember the timing right, at least)

For shame.

*for reference, the *original* CX-75 concept was to be powered by two diesel gas turbine engines, which spun generators to provide anything up to 200bhp per corner to an electric motor, meaning it'd have been trading punches with the Holy Trinity, and have been released before them, likely. Then they said 'well, mebbe we'll do a V6 or summat' then they just ignored it till this Bond film. Fokkin tragedy
