Aston Martin DB AR1 Engines and Transmissions

The Aston Martin DB AR1 engine story centres on a large naturally aspirated petrol unit, seen in the 5.9 MT. That powertrain pairs a manual gearbox with rear-wheel drive, so torque arrives smoothly and you shift less often than the displacement suggests, while traction rewards a measured right foot.
