If this is what the final system could look like, it would be far superior to the current in-car tech in Astons.

LeTV was given carte blanche for the design and came up with some concepts we would never expect to see in an Aston Martin.

Some of the design influence came from the world of electric cars, an area Aston Martin is beginning to look into.

The 12.2-inch display that replaces the instrument panel could be updated and re-designed over the life of the car.

Some vehicle aspects, such as climate control and interior lights, can be controlled, but there is no connection to the drivetrain system management software for security reasons.
