Aston Martin 2017 sales its best yet
ASTON Martin announced it sold 5,117 cars in 2017, citing “sell-out demand” for its DB11, Vanquish Zagato and Vantage GT8 as factors for the result.
Company President and Chief Executive Andy Palmer said the brand’s performance is “ahead of expectations, both in terms of financial performance and in meeting our targets for the DB11 and special vehicles.”
“This strong sales performance shows that our Second Century transformation plan is building momentum. Phase Two of the program will be largely completed in 2018 with the introduction of the Vanquish replacement and production of the new Vantage, contributing to continued sustainable profitability at Aston Martin,” Mr. Palmer said.
The company noted it achieved its highest full-year sales volumes in nine years, driven by rising demand in North America, the UK and China. It added that part of its Second Century Plan is to expand its UK manufacturing footprint.
