Lagonda SUV by Aston Martin in the works
Aston Martin made a big deal out of reviving their dormant Lagonda nameplate, to be slapped onto a new set of luxury models. At the 2009 Geneva Auto Show, it turns out their first model will be a crossover SUV, as hinted by this concept. While no one ever asked for an Aston Martin SUV, it looks set to become a hall-of-shame debutant alongside the likes of the Porsche Cayenne and the BMW X6.
While the Lagonda Concept is a bit of a non-starter, with an unknown V12 under the bonnet mated to some sort of four-wheel-drive system, the original Lagonda cars have a long history in the business since 1899.
Expect a production version to debut by 2011.
