The fastest Vantage in the nameplate’s history, it is powered by a heavily reworked, hand-built 4.0 Twin-Turbo V8 engine. It also marks the biggest-ever jump in power and torque compared to the model it succeeds, with peaks of 665 PS and a colossal 800 Nm of torque.
Working in harmony with an 8-speed ZF automatic transmission, this gearbox enables this two-seater sports car to reach a top speed of 202 mph and launch it from a standstill to 60mph in just 3.4 seconds. Standing start acceleration has been perfected with the introduction of a new Launch Control system. When engaged by the driver, Launch Control allows the car to deploy as much torque as conditions allow, using the E-Diff, ESP slip control, and engine torque management to keep wheel slip in the optimal range throughout the launch.

Shorter gear ratios also allow for more dynamic and seamless gear changes. Not only this but an array of new drive options have been introduced. For the first time in an Aston Martin Vantage, Wet Mode and Individual Mode are introduced, placing the driver at the core of this sports car.
A highly evolved aluminium structure, perfect 50:50 weight distribution, and state-of-the-art suspension provide the foundation for a definitive driving experience. Vantage features an enhanced body structure to deliver more focused and engaging dynamics, thanks to additional underbody stiffening components.

With the combined improvements in front and rear mounting stiffness for the dampers, the Vantage see’s tangible gains in precision, handling balance, and driver feedback, together with an overall uplift in refinement.
