Kahn Design's Vengeance

Published on May 14, 2015 in News by Frédérick Boucher-Gaulin

Kahn Design might not be a household name (and it has nothing to do with the bad guy in Star Trek), but this small outfit is currently working hard on a car they intend to sell soon.

Named the Vengeance, Kahn Design’s coupe is based on the Aston Martin DB9. Its bodywork, however, has been fully rethought with muscular lines which, according to the designer, make it look like a sabretooth tiger. The car will be made of aluminium with stainless steel accents and will feature 20-inch wheels at the front and 21-inch wheels at the back. New vents have also found their way onto the front fenders.

There is no release date yet (since the car is nothing more than a digital drawing at this point), and no powertrain information, but Kahn Design will probably stick to Aston Martin’s V12 engine for simplicity’s sake. This means that the Vengeance would have 517 horsepower and 458 pound-feet of torque to play with.

If the public’s reaction is positive, Kahn Design could have enough prospective buyers to enter the next phase of their master plan: building a real prototype.
