Aston Martin, Lucid Motors Strike Deal for EV Powertrains

[Mr.Smith]

This would be great for Aston Martin and would put the brand on the radar for me.

Lucid makes the best EV drivetrains on the market. Having AMs design and build with Lucid technology would be the perfect combination

Since Lucids hit every ugly branch as they fell out of the tree…. Then climbed back up to do it again this could make a much better car

Lucid's engineering is top flight (industry best perhaps right now?) - their design not so much
Aston's design is legendary and oh so good, and their engineering not so much

hmmm - if it survives the marriage - the results could be stunning…I can't wait to see what this brings.

Which reminds me of the car that was supposed to blend italian design and japanese engineering, but did the opposite: https://www.theautopian.com/we-need...ded-japanese-styling-and-italian-engineering/

yes - automotive marriages "made in heaven" rarely result in great outcomes…hence my "wait and see" attitude.
