Ever since ASTON MARTIN first launched the Vantage in the 1950s as an upgrade to the DB2, it has been synonymous with performance. The latest incarnation of this flagship sports car continues a proud tradition
UNWAVERING IN ITS singular purpose, the new Aston Martin Vantage is highly-focused. Its instinct is not simply to exhilarate the senses, but to overwhelm them through world renowned design, performance and dedicated craftsmanship.
The heart of Vantage beats with a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine to produce that visceral Aston Martin roar, while its strong backbone of aluminum delivers exceptionally sharp, agile handling – leaving a lasting impression well beyond the drive. A rare breed and a statement of independence on the road, the name Vantage continues to embody all that is beautiful in this performance sports car range from Aston Martin.
Masterfully, Aston Martin’s closely guarded principles of purity and beautiful proportion remain uncompromised. Sculptural forms create an athletic predatory stance, while muscular flanks and broad haunches express the agility and dynamism inherent to the car.
The nose of the clamshell bonnet is pitched towards the ground, as if hunting its prey. Distinctive and assertive features like the three dimensional S curve surrounding the meshed grille, or the focused expression of its ultra-slim LED headlights, instantly portray Vantage’s beautifully intense visual character.
