    Aston Martin, in partnership with The Little Car Company have announced the DB5 Junior, a two-thirds scale electric junior car. Based on Aston Martin's reference 3D scan of an original DB5, the working scale model is built to replicate the original with great accuracy and authenticity. Image Credit: Supplied

    The model features an aluminium honeycomb chassis and composite body, providing a very rigid platform while keeping the total weight down to around 270kg. The electric powertrain delivers 5kW / 6.7 bhp to the rear wheels, and can accelerate to a 30mph (48kph) top speed. Image Credit: Supplied

    The DB5’s dashboard gets fully functional Smiths instruments, which have been updated for the modern era. The fuel gauge has been converted into a battery meter, while the oil temperature now monitors the motor temperature. It even has the same Smiths clock as seen in the original 1960s car.

    The car comes painted in the original DB5’s famous Silver Birch colour as standard, with a full black leather interior and carpet set. There is even a boot at the rear for storage. A removable battery pack is stored under the opening bonnet, giving 10-20 miles (16-32km) driving range, depending on driving style. Image Credit: Supplied
