For a few weeks now we have heard that Mercedes and Aston Martin would be working with each other to create a new kind of car. Something that would surprise us and take the auto world by storm. This week we have received news that they have officially partnered up.
Mercedes and Aston Martin have partnered together to create cars that will be given brand new technology and a whole new platform that both of their designs have created. Because of this new partnership we won’t be surprised to see Mercedes buying a stake in Aston Martin.
In reality this partnership is something that we are looking forward to and was a smart plan for the two automakers. Aston Martin will once again need to rely on someone to help purchase all of their major car components from the usual mainstream suppliers once they are through working with Ford.
Also we can only imagine the kind of car that would be generated after combining a powerful Mercedes engine into a sleek Aston Martin framework. Who better to help Mercedes create the classic and powerful cars once they sever ties with McLaren than to join forces with one of the best supercar manufacturers. In fact we have heard rumors that Mercedes is planning on using Aston Martin’s expertise to create a lightweight aluminum platform for the next SL generation.
