Dr Andy Palmer, Aston Martin CEO said “We are very much looking forward to opening a showroom in Abu Dhabi. The UAE market is extremely important for a luxury automotive brand like Aston Martin and Etihad Towers is the perfect location.”
Neil Slade, General Manager Middle East and North Africa at Aston Martin, commented “Aston Martin is much more than a car, it is a lifestyle and Etihad Towers reflects that lifestyle. The new dealership will allow us to take excellent care of our Middle Eastern clients and further enhance their experience of Aston Martin.”
The event will also see the Abu Dhabi launch of the luxury car maker’s most intense and exhilarating track-only supercar to date, the Aston Martin Vulcan.

The new supercar is strictly limited to just 24 examples worldwide and allows owners the opportunity to precisely tailor their track day experience through a graduating scale of detailed power and dynamic performance adjustments.
Dr Andy Palmer concluded: “Vulcan is not just a supercar, it represents 102 years of road and race experience and only 24 people in the world will be able to say they are part of this unique club.”
