Aston Martin has unveiled its new 2024 Vantage GT3, which will make its international debut at the Rolex 24 Hours at Daytona in January. The car is a comprehensive evolution of the recently retired Vantage AMR GTE and GT3 cars, with an all-new nose-to-tail aerodynamic package, comprehensively revised suspension and state-of-the art electronics. It features large louvres in the top of the front wheel arches that evacuate high pressure air to reduce lift, with an even larger stack of louvres in the rear arches allowing high pressure to escape from the rear to reduce drag. The new Vantage GT3 is built around Aston Martin's bonded aluminum chassis structure and powered by a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 engine, with torque sensors mandated for LMGT3 category in which it will compete.
The new Vantage GT3 is a heavily modified version of the regular Vantage for endurance racing.
It has a roll cage installed in its bonded aluminum chassis, carbon fiber body panels, and other changes to make it suitable for track use.
All cars in the GT3 class start their lives as actual production cars and have very similar performance despite variety.

Fallacies

The article contains several logical fallacies. The author uses an appeal to authority by stating that Aston Martin claims a certain performance boost without providing any evidence or testing results to support this claim. Additionally, the author makes use of inflammatory rhetoric when describing the new styling as 'bulked up' and 'still-fresh'. This is not objective language and could be seen as biased. The article also contains a dichotomous depiction by stating that Aston Martin has made significant improvements to both the powertrain and chassis, but then describing these changes in an overly positive manner without providing any negative feedback or comparison with previous models.
Aston Martin claims a 3.4-second 0-60 mph time and 202 mph top speed thanks to the new engine.
Bias

The article contains several examples of bias. The author uses language that dehumanizes white supremacists and extremist far-right ideologies by referring to them as 'dog whistling' and celebrating their reaction to the reference in the title. Additionally, the author makes a political statement about how Aston Martin chose not to have an ad during Super Bowl time, which is irrelevant to the article itself.
Aston really bulked up when designing the new Vantage. It stands 1.1 inch wider than before.
