The Aston Martin lifestyle is full of fine liquors, speakers, and women

Add as a preferred source on Google

Aston Martin is definitively British by more than nationality. It also boasts a very British design attitude, something that evokes a sense of freedom and adventure only found within a brisk drive. 

Accordingly, Aston Martin commissioned True Motion Pictures to produce a film starring it Vanquish model. Why the Vanquish? It was chosen to star because it absolutely exudes every single emotion Aston wants to seep into a proud driver. The evocative and exquisite short film is called “The Art of Vanquish”. It’s an eye-catching short film that creates a mesmerizing life context for the flagship model.

The luxurious atmosphere surrounding the Aston lifestyle is created by meshing shots of pure driving enjoyment with the subtleties of a refined man’s life, something few can dream of.

Aston Martin cunningly uses some wise product placement techniques by showing the faceless Aston owner’s favorite drink, his preferred sound system (Bang and Olufsen, of course), and his kind of woman. 

What would owning an Aston Martin be without living a refined lifestyle to match your perfect automobile? The two go hand in hand, and if you listen to the choice words of a traveled man in the film, you might just have to buy a Vanquish.

If nothing else, the roar of that handcrafted V12 should convince you.

Xpeng’s latest electric vehicle carries enough processing power to make the term "smart car" actually sound more realistic than it actually is. The new Xpeng L03 debuted simultaneously in Europe and China on July 16, with the company presenting it across 65 markets. Available as a fully electric vehicle and an L03 Power X range-extender, the coupe-SUV is Xpeng’s most internationally focused model so far.

A new sodium battery posts wild four-minute charging numbers, but don’t expect it in an EV yet
The breakthrough could improve fast charging and battery life, but the study hasn’t demonstrated those results in a production-sized pack
EV Charger

A new sodium-metal battery has posted a charging number that makes today’s EVs look painfully slow. In laboratory testing, the cell operated at a 15C rate, equivalent to completing a charge or discharge in roughly four minutes.

That doesn’t mean researchers plugged in an electric car and watched it fill up before the driver finished buying coffee. The result came from a small experimental cell using a new quasi-solid electrolyte, while the larger pouch-cell prototype delivered far less dramatic performance.

The Apple Car may be dead, but it became the foundation of Apple Intelligence
A decade of work on a canceled car project reportedly laid the groundwork for Apple Intelligence.
Apple Intelligence in Apple Car

The Apple Car may have never left the garage, but it apparently gave birth to Apple's AI ambitions. According to Bloomberg's Mark Gurman, Apple's canceled autonomous vehicle project, one that consumed more than a decade of work and over $10 billion before being scrapped in 2024, ended up laying the technological foundation for Apple Intelligence. In a rather ironic twist, one of Apple's most expensive failures may also become one of its most important long-term investments.
