Irvine, CA, 16 August 2019 - Aston Martin The Americas today announced the addition of its newest retailer in the United States with the appointment of Aston Martin Walnut Creek, serving San Francisco's Bay Area with immediate effect.

Positioned just off Interstate 680 at the intersection of Main Street and Parkside Drive in the heart of Walnut Creek, California, the new facility will include a seven-car showroom capable of displaying the entire Aston Martin line-up. Aston Martin Walnut Creek is located just 25 miles from San Francisco and 70 miles from Sacramento.

In addition to the customer reception area and new car gallery, both of which will be finished in Aston Martin's distinctive brand identity, the new facility will also incorporate an approved service center which, when established, will cater for the needs of Aston Martin owners in the Sacramento River delta area and Northern California.

Laura Schwab, President, Aston Martin The Americas said: 'We're delighted to have a partner like the Price Simms Automotive Group within our retailer network. The addition of their second store helps expand the footprint for Aston Martin in a key market for us.

The new Aston Martin Walnut Creek joins a retailer network of more than 40 stores in the Americas, serving its clients in five countries including the United States, Canada, Mexico, Peru and Chile; part of a global network of more than 160 partners representing more than 53 countries around the world.

Aston Martin is a modern, exclusive sports car brand with a unique heritage instantly recognised around the world. Distinctively fusing the latest technology, time-honoured craftsmanship and graceful styling to produce a range of critically acclaimed performance sports cars, Aston Martin is globally recognised as one of the world's most revered brands.

Under its 'Second Century Plan' announced at the Geneva Motor Show in 2015, the brand significantly refreshed its core line-up of sportscars and grand tourers to include seven separate models, including the New Vantage and Vantage AMR; the DB11 V8 Coupe, DB11 V8 Volante and DB11 AMR; the DBS Superleggera and DBS Superleggera Volante.

While at the helm of the company, global CEO Dr Andy Palmer has also expanded Aston Martin's manufacturing to include special, low-volume, hypercars including the 2015 Aston Martin Vulcan and the forthcoming Aston Martin Valkyrie and Valhalla mid-engined hypercars; both built in partnership with Red Bull Advanced Technologies. Valkyrie and Valhalla each incorporate the latest engineering learnings gleaned from the brand's Formula 1™ efforts with Red Bull Racing and marry them to Aston Martin's signature design language; creating an uncompromising design that will be capable of delivering F1 and Le Mans prototype levels of performance but built for the public road.

Underscoring its commitment to deliver its products to a wider range of potential customers worldwide under the 'Second Century Plan,' Aston Martin also announced that for the first time ever it would produce an SUV, the DBX. Built at an all-new facility in St. Athan, Wales, the DBX signals Aston Martin's first steps to a more diversified product portfolio; combining the real beauty, authentic materials and world-class dynamic performance owners have come to expect with SUV versatility and multi-terrain confidence not yet seen from the brand. The new SUV will debut in December of 2019 and reach retailers in 2020.
