C26, you show your lack of knowledge on so many levels.
1. In 10 years Aston will need a new product line. Yes it will cost money, the fact it will be EV or combustion is neither here or there. They will NOT have to design an EV drive system, they will adapt an existing one from Merc, or maybe even Honda by then.
Every car company has the same cycle to plan.
2. Are you a stalker?
3. 5000 cars in 6 months, that is a lot of sales and a major feat for an all new product line. The fact they have moved production into 2025 H1 in order to smooth the flow sounds sensible to me.
They are producing complex machines with many parts and suppliers, not stamping out widgets.
If they can produce 5000 cars on new lines in the first 6 months it gives me a lot of faith in what they can produce and sell in 2025
I wouldn't keep buying back in if I had serious doubts. The brand is up there, so now too is the product. The cars are very, very good now. Go and try one, watch all the reviews.
