The cabin is outfitted in British wool, silk and cashmere.<\/p>\n Aston Martin President and CEO Andy Palmer says the Lagonda Vision Concept is the rebirth of a great brand.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s a new kind of luxury car from the first-ever 100-percent battery electric luxury car brand.\u201d<\/p>\n While Palmer didn\u2019t give many details about the new car, he did say the Vision Concept will get 400 miles on one charge\u2014enough to drive from Los Angeles to San Francisco in one sitting. It will have self-driving capability and zero emissions.<\/p>\n Production at the 114-year-old Lagonda brand will begin by 2021 at the company\u2019s factory in Wales, and a second model may arrive by 2023.<\/p>\n Aston Martin also showed the 1,100-horsepower Valkyrie AMR Pro, a track-only evolution of the marque\u2019s hypercar that has performance capabilities like a Formula One car\u2014and a top speed of more than 223 miles per hour. It\u2019s the most powerful Aston Martin ever made.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n
