Aston Martin will introduce a new sports car, Virage, into its model range this year.

The car will make its world debut at the Geneva Motor Show next month, when its pricing will be revealed.

The coupe, also offered in Volante roadster form, will sit between DBS and DB9 in the range.

It has a front-mounded 6.0-litre V12 engine producing 490bhp, plus the luxury, comfort and refinement expected of the brand.

Standard equipment includes heated seats (Sports seats only), cruise control, satellite navigation, Bluetooth telephone preparation and a 700W Aston Martin premium audio system with full iPod integration.

Order books have opened now for the Virage and Virage Volante.
