Could this be the next Aston Martin for James Bond?

We consulted AI to envision the next iconic car for James Bond. Given the precedence of Aston Martin in the past nine films featuring Pierce Brosnan and Daniel Craig as Bond, it’s unsurprising that the initial AI-generated design resembled something the renowned manufacturer might produce. Could this be the new vehicle for the next film?

007’s next ride: Tesla Cybertruck meets Batmobile

With many people making the switch to electric, isn’t it time Bond did the same? AI’s imaginative projections have birthed a revolutionary concept for James Bond’s next vehicle — a fusion of the Batmobile’s sleek, futuristic car with the Tesla Cybertruck.

This remarkable vehicle showcases sharp, angular lines echoing both the Batmobile and the Cybertruck, while delivering electric-powered performance. With its unquestionably bulletproof body and state-of-the-art technology, could this be the next James Bond vehicle?

AI predicts Bentley’s potential Bond return and Morgan Plus 4 debut

Prompted to envision a Bond car beyond the confines of Aston Martin, AI created captivating car concepts, one of which was a design reminiscent of the timeless Morgan Plus Four.

Notably, this car boasts a soft-top convertible configuration, ideally suited for scenes where stealth and action take a backseat.

Another standout contender was a Bentley, a brand that hasn’t graced a Bond film since Sean Connery’s “From Russia with Love” in 1963. The car evokes a sense of sophistication and timeless elegance, aligning seamlessly with the suave and discerning taste often associated with the iconic spy.

It’s worth noting that in Ian Fleming’s original spy novels, James Bond favored a Bentley, with the transition to Aston Martin occurring later in the movie adaptations.
