While the Aston Martin DBX may have turned out to be a little too predictable for some fans of the British sports car brand, this design project may just go some way towards envisaging what may have happened had caution been thrown to the wind.

Penned by Chinese exterior designer Jiaqi Han, these rather impressive renderings were created while he studied at the ArtCenter College of Design in California. Today, Han lives in Los Angeles, having moved to the States to pursue his dream of car design.

In Han’s words, this EV render has been designed to “create more opportunities for design and layout.” The profile remains sleek, with a cab-backward stance and a sloping roofline. It tries to tread a line between the DBX’s stance and the Vantage’s roofline.

However, the most intriguing element of this design project are the doors. While appearing to have four doors, the front-most suicide-style ones actually open up to reveal access to two storage areas. This innovative repackaging solution harnesses the freed-up space thanks to the electric motors, as well as the signature long bonnet. “The luggage in the dash-to-axle is the key design feature of this vehicle,” says Han. “It allows the window graphic to extended into the luggage compartment, showcasing this unique function.”

While this EV project would fit in with Aston Martin’s plans to electrify all models by the year 2025, we suspect that they’d be less than happy messing with the success of the DBX. As of last month, Aston is averaging around 90 sales of the DBX per month in the US, with it being hailed as a brand-saving model, in the vein of how the original Cayenne is viewed to Porsche.

But this design project remains a tantalizing “what if,” if nothing else. You can check out more of Hans’s work on Behance or his website.
