@Doyezee:
Stroll, quoted directly from Aston Martin website, Wed 29th July in H1, 2020 results:
"Now, to DBX, our first SUV and first step into a new market. As you have heard, we are in production and the first cars have been shipped to customers. With this car, we are putting into practice the build-to-order model for the future."
He also states:
"Secondly, the SUV has become a substantial category in the automotive today, and when you look at our competitors, they make around 5,000 SUVs a year. With the launch of the critically acclaimed DBX, which has been developed on its own unique platform and handles
and drives like an Aston Martin sports car, we believe we have a game changer. I feel
confident that we could similarly have a market for 4,000 to 5,000 SUVs a year over time. ".
So it wasn't previous management who said 4-5000 for DBX, it was Stroll.
Backtracking to 3000 already, then claiming it was previous management.
