The result of a collaboration between Aston Martin and The Little Car Company, the Aston Martin DB5 Junior is a 2/3 smaller replica of the iconic British model aimed at youngsters.
Very faithful to the original (both outside and inside) the DB5 Junior measures 3 m in length and 1.1 m in width, weighs 270 kg and accommodates an adult and a child.
To cheer him up, we find an electric motor with 6.8 hp capable of driving it up to 48 km/h. The range is 16 to 32 km and the Aston Martin DB5 Junior has disc brakes, regenerative braking and an evolved suspension inspired by the original model.
Those who want more performance and exclusivity can opt for the Aston Martin DB5 Vantage Junior. Equipped with a locking differential and carbon fiber bodywork, it has a second battery pack and sees power rise to 14 hp and autonomy to values between 32 and 64 km.
What is the price of all this? The DB5 Junior is available, before tax, for 35,000 pounds (about 38,500 euros) and the DB5 Vantage Junior for 45,000 pounds (about 48,500 euros).
