Aston Martin DBR22 debuts at Pebble Beach

At the time of going to print, the Pebble Beach Concours was about to kick off and we had just heard Aston Martin was going to show off a new roadster that drew inspiration from the legendary DBR1 itself. They call it the DBR22.


The DBR22 is a magnificent study in the use of carbon fibre; it’s used almost everywhere. While the exterior is finished in a shade of British Racing Green, the DBR22’s cabin is wrapped in light brown leather. Just like the iconic DBR1, which famously took the chequered flag at the 1959 24 Hours of Le Mans, the DBR22 doesn’t have a roof, just a sliver of a screen to deflect air away from the driver and passenger.
