Aston Martin Kuala Lumpur has opened its doors to the what the Gaydon based carmaker dubs the world’s first super tourer, the Aston Martin DB12. The DB12 marks a significant milestone for the company as it coincides with 2 significant milestones in 2023, that being its monumental 110th anniversary and 75 years of the illustrious DB model line.

In the game of luxury performance cars, it’s all about one-upmanship and Aston Martin has boldly attempted that step by christening its new Aston Martin DB12 as the world’s first Super Tourer.

The BMW i4 has been confirmed a while ago and recently, Autocar reported that the BMW M4 Gran Coupe is in the works as well. But funnily, since they both share the same 4 Series Gran Coupe body, the M4 won’t be the most powerful in the 4 Series lineup, the i4 will be. Yes, the BMW i4 will be the most powerful 4 series yet, with 530 PS and over 800 Nm from the electric motors. 0-100 km/h takes around 4.0 seconds and it will accelerate to over 200 km/h.
