James Bond's next car will probably be electric
Aston Martin
Being a British MI6 spy, James Bond is used to getting all of the coolest, newest, and most-lethal cars, gadgets, and weaponry. So the impending switch to an electric car makes complete sense.
In an interview with CNBC, Aston Martin's CEO Andy Palmer said that it's likely that the character James Bond will find himself driving an electric car in the future. Palmer also said that he believes the growth in electric car use and acceptance is "almost as inevitable as death and tax."
Palmer cited the instant-torque and incredible thrust that electric cars can deliver as some of the main benefits for the potential switch.
It's no secret that Aston Martin is looking to dive deeper into the world of electric vehicles. In February, the company announced a partnership with the ever-so-elusive Faraday Future and LeEco that would be purposed around the development of EVs.
Anyway, it's a safe bet that whatever Aston Martin has up its sleeves for Bond is at least as exciting and dangerous as anything we've seen in the past. Have faith.
Aston Martin has been providing James Bond movies with cars since 1964, though with a couple minor interruptions here and there. In the last movie, "Spectre", Bond drove an Aston Martin DB10, a model that was never meant for production.
