ENGINEERED FOR REAL DRIVERS
ENGINEERED FOR REAL DRIVERS
Vantage. Simply a model made of more. More thrill, more feel and more connection to each ripple of the road. An icon made in the image of every Le Mans winner. Punched with more power. Plied with more precision to race and get your heart racing. And engineered to reach the limit. Then make itself at home. This is Vantage.

50:50 WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION
AT THE LIMIT OF PERFECT BALACE
ARROWED WITH AGILITY
Graced with a centre of gravity 49cm off the ground. Braced with 29% more stiffness under the load of a corner. Anchored with front-mid engine and propelled by rear-wheel drive. All harmonising to put your Vantage in the position to manoeuvre through turns with the agility of a race car.
Thrillingly poised
The lower seating position, lower centre console, lower and more athletic ‘h’ point, and ergonomic alignment of the controls along the centreline of the cockpit plant the driver at the core of the car.
TORQUE SHAPING
HAND-THREADING THRILL THROUGH THE EYE OF THE CORNER
1.3x the thrill
An engine that solders you to the edge of your driving seat. 30% more horsepower. Towering with 15% more torque. The largest single surge in performance in the 73-year story of Vantage.
Ravenously restless
Hat trick of the heart racing. Modified cam profiles, optimised compression ratios and enlarged turbos send the engine’s full repertoire of thrill charging through the veins of Vantage. Without a scintilla of delay.
800Nm on the rocks
This roaring fire of performance is made manageable by triple the number of radiators. 56% more thermal apertures. Fronted by a grille remoulded to mainline more cool air.
STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM
LINING YOUR LIMBS WITH A SIXTH SENSE OF CONTROL
SIX DIMENSIONS OF STABILITY
Every millimetre of movement is measured across six dimensions. Surge, Heave, Sway, Pitch, Roll, Yaw. 6 axes, live-monitoring every ripple of performance. To pave a deeply intelligent foundation for the application of ESP.
Stability begets agility
An innate sense of balance. Brimming with the latest evolution of ESP. Enlightened by a new algorithm to predict optimum grip. Intervening in the moment to any moment of instability. Without hijacking your command of the car.
DAMPERS
ARMED TO DISARM THE INCONSISTENCIES IN THE TARMAC
DAMPENED NOT DILUTED
Bilstein DTX dampers boost force distribution by 500%. Reinforced further by a new rear cross brace. To clad the chassis in new calm. And give you the stability and rigidity to push your Vantage harder.
A gilded sense of grip
Our latest generation bonded aluminium structure increases torsional stiffness and strengthens your feeling of connection. Tightening your clutch on the car’s behaviour. Deepened by active vehicle dynamics that bend the bearing of the powertrain, braking systems and e-Diff to the different weather and surface conditions.
Pressing power into your drive in the touch of a button
Our new Launch Control System harmonises the engine, transmission, and stability control to tailor torque to the road ahead. The dynamic trio of E-Diff, ESP slip control, and engine torque management ensures a tight grip on the road. And with adjustable Traction Control (ATC) at your fingertips, you can eliminate wheelspin and dominate the road by setting ATC to TC off.
NON-ISOLATED STEERING COLUMN
STEERING WHEEL FEEDING YOU BRAILLE FROM THE ROAD
SLALOMING WITH STRENGTH
A new apex of feeling. Amplified by targeted bracing, undertrays and anti-roll technology. Ramping up torsional stiffness through the length of the body. Widening your ability to coax agility from the car.
Revel in the reality of the road
Plugging you into your car. Reworked from the inside out to create connectivity between the driver, steering wheel and body structure. Fluently feeding your fingers with feedback. Drawing more feel into your cabin. And totally rewriting the standards of driver connectivity.
EXTERIOR DESIGN
AN ANATOMICAL STUDY OF AGGRESSION
Bitten with balance. Doused with dynamism. Every curve, sill and strake, scythed and carved with unapologetic conviction. Angled in new aggression. From the seething snarl of its front grille to the roar of its rear.
Wheels and brakes
21-inch, hand-forged alloy wheels. Rolled in a bespoke blend of tyre. Made by Michelin to the measure of Aston Martin. 360mm x 400mm. With a carbon-ceramic option available at your command. To minimise weight, maximise endurance, and rein in all 202mph, 800Nm and 800 degrees of unadulterated thrill.
Wide body
Fronting up to the limit with a broader-shouldered stance. 30mm wider. Seething with new sharpness. The vanguard and spearhead of a new body of strength. Laterally stiffened from torso to tail. Braced with 29% more strength under the pressure of a corner.
INTERIOR DESIGN
A CABIN COURSING WITH CLASS
Your vanguard of connectivity. Homed in a brand-new interior. Glowing with a landscape of 1970 x 720 pixels. Bound in a vision of Bridge of Weir hide and boosted with the new lowered centre console. Placing you in the epicentre of your Vantage and marrying the digital with the analogue. A new chapter of intelligence written from the inside out.
Connected to the limit
Pulsating with intelligence. From every pore, decibel and pixel. Beaming from 10.25 inches and the highest definition touchscreen in its class.
Woven with 1170 Watts
Vantage comes with option of the Halo system. 15 speakers and 1170 Watts. Accelerating through your eardrums. Symphonising with the score of the engine. Arranged by Bowers and Wilkins. And fitted as standard is the Aston Martin 390-Watt, 11 speaker audio system. Tuned by some of the leading minds in music. And made to dance and duet with the interiors of your Vantage.
