HOW TO FIX ASTON IN 5 SIMPLE STEPS

摘要

TopGesr: Have you driven the Valkyrie yet on the road?Tobias Moers: I have. It's good, ride comfort is pretty good, it works well. The seating position is very special, quite similar to another car I know...TG: Speaking of which... you've left behind the Mercedes Project One, and inherited the Aston Martin Valkyrie. Which gave you the biggest headache?TM: The diplomatic answer to that is quite a challenge! There's a huge difference, you can't compare them because the Project One is not a normal car, but it's more traditional - the drivetrain is the unique thing. With the Valkyrie, the V12 is the more traditional bit, even if it revs over ll,000rpm, but the gearbox and the electric motor is a very special challenge, and the car itself, it's more of an aircraft than a car.TG: What was it about the job that attracted you? TM: Lawrence [Stroll] asked me to join him on ajourney, and sometimes in life you have to ask, "What's next?". Aston Martin is a brand I love, it's well known, but the definition of the brand, the products behind the brand, there's so much room for improvement.TG: Lawrence must have liked the synergies between Mercedes and Aston? TM: It wasn't the reason he emailed me. Who can fix this, who can run a turnaround program with Aston, who can build the product strategy for the future? Those were his questions. Is it beneficial that I know Mercedes' tech department quite well? Yes, for sure.
