Aston Martin Vanquish

A New Reign of V12 Dominance.










Engineering & Performance

The new Vanquish is a conqueror for the ages. Engaging yet exhilarating dynamics come together to usher in a revolution of refinement and ferocity.




Engine, Transmission & Powertrain

Engine

Designed for peak performance, the glorious new 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12 engine generates 835PS and 1000Nm of torque, reaching a top speed of 214 mph (345 km/h) and accelerating from 0 to 62mph in 3.3 seconds. Engineered to be stronger yet lighter with a reinforced cylinder block, reprofiled camshafts, strategically repositioned spark plugs and optimised intake and exhaust ports, the evolutionary engine has been crafted for ultimate exhilaration.

Transmission

Power from the V12 is fed through the renowned ZF 8-speed automatic transmission paired with an Electronic Rear Differential. Through a blend of torque tuning and transmission calibration, Vanquish achieves a balance that makes it effortlessly usable for daily driving. This combination enables smooth power delivery and responsive performance, whether navigating city streets or open highways.

Powertrain

Vanquish uses a rear electronic differential, a first for its V12 platform, managing torque across the rear axle. Its carbon fibre prop shaft handles high torque, transferring power from the transmission to the e-diff. The e-diff directs power across the rear axle, switching from open to locked in just 135 milliseconds, it boasts cornering agility and preeminent control in oversteer and high-speed lane changes.

Chassis, Dynamics & Suspension

Chassis

Vanquish is equipped with stiffer cross-members, undertrays, rear bulkhead and a lateral transmission damper, designed to enhance control over the forces generated by lateral motion between the drivetrain and body structure during dynamic driving. By minimising this movement, stability is significantly improved, resulting in significantly enhanced dynamic behaviour and increased driver confidence.

Dynamics

The latest Bilstein DTX™ damper technology delivers a significant increase in force bandwidth between drive modes over the outgoing car. This force provides greater refinement and control across the settings. With bespoke calibration, Vanquish handles bumps and slopes effortlessly. Increased stiffness and a longer wheelbase creates robust chassis; optimal suspension stiffness minimises unwanted road feedback.

Suspension

Vanquish's bonded aluminium body dictates exceptional lateral and horizontal stiffness, enhancing handling precision. An engine cross brace improves torsional rigidity and lateral stiffness between front suspension towers. With double wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension, it achieves optimal control.

Brakes, Brake Assistance & Tyres

Brakes

Standard Carbon Ceramic Brakes (CCB) feature 410mm front and 360mm discs, enhancing braking performance while cutting unsprung mass by 27 kg versus cast iron counterparts. Brembo manufactured brake calipers feature an aluminium, monobloc construction for maximum brake stiffness, ensuring a consistent brake pedal feel. The front brake calipers are six-piston and rear brake calipers are four-piston.

Brake Assistance

The CCB system brake pads ensure consistent performance, resisting fade up to 800°C, including noise reduction to ensure quiet operation at all temperatures. Brake cooling is provided from cooling ducts feeding high-pressure from the front bumper to the inner wheel arch. This provides optimum air flow directly to the rear surface brakes with high temperature air expelled through the wheel and wheel arch.

Tyres

Bespoke Pirelli P Zero Tyres, tailored for Vanquish, ensure top-tier performance and comfort in any condition. Developed in collaboration with Pirelli, these tyres provide exceptional lateral grip and incorporate acoustic foam for significant noise and vibration reduction. Winter tyres are also available. 

Handling, Steering & Control

Handling

Building on the DB12 and Vantage, Vanquish gets the latest of our advanced Electronic Stability Program (ESP) system integrating cutting-edge control tech. This unified system merges various vehicle dynamics controls, enhancing the driving experience. Predictive technology refines the driving experience, reducing ESP interventions. It offers four ESP modes (On, Track, Off, Wet), accessible via a console button, with Wet mode linked to drive mode selection.

Steering

With tuned body stiffness through meticulous extra bracing, Vanquish gives maximum feedback and dynamism. The longest wheelbase in its category guarantees class leading comfort and stability at high speeds. The cutting-edge ESP system incorporates an industry-leading predictive technology and ensures that every drive is a masterclass in control and agility. The Vanquish is a car you will enjoy pushing to its limits.

Traction Control

Experience unparalleled freedom with 9 levels of adjustable traction control. Starting at TC5 for optimised launches, they can adjust slip precisely during cornering. Dialling down to TC1 improves traction, while TC6 to TC8 enhances drive-off slip. TC Off disables stability interventions, allowing unrestricted performance and full dynamic potential.






Exterior

With its assertive presence and elegant proportions, the Aston Martin Vanquish seamlessly blends sophistication and power. Each is a uniquely crafted work of art.

Front

Grille

Vanquish receives an all-new front bumper, fender and grille design with a self-assured and striking aesthetic. The traditional Aston Martin horizontal vaned grille is ever present and enlarged to offer a 13% increase in surface area over previous generations to aid cooling for the 835PS engine.

Wheelbase

Vanquish benefits from an extra 80mm longer wheelbase between the front axle and A-pillar. This extension elongates the front of the car, increasing the ratio of ‘dash to axle’ or the distance from the base of the windscreen to the middle of the front axle, measured when a car is viewed from its side profile. Increasing this dimension lengthens the bonnet endowing Vanquish with an elegant, rakish and luxurious side profile

Thermo Louvres

Purposely carved into the carbon fibre bonnet to aid cooling of the V12 engine, the thermo louvres are a focused example of function meeting technical form. The six louvre gills are inspired directly by the Aston Martin Formula 1 car aerodynamic features

Side

Doors

Presenting door handles are fitted to the distinctively Aston Martin flush fit door handles, deploying with a simple press or when the vehicle is opened via the remote key. Swan doors open elegantly, complemented by a prominent and familiar rear wheel arch, emphasising the rear-wheel drive prowess.

Side Strake

The iconic Aston Martin side strake sits purposefully inside a sculpted fender panel. The side strake can be customised within the exterior packs, with a choice between bright chrome contrasting against the gloss black side panel or alternatively gloss black or carbon fibre providing a more discreet character. Like Aston Martins of yesteryear, Vanquish is adorned with a red V12 identifier, a subtle detail with a historic significance.

Wing Mirrors

Frameless door mirrors introduce a smaller, sleeker design with less intrusion to forward vision and also improving the aerodynamic profile of Vanquish.

Wheels, Roof & Lights

Wheels

The Aston Martin Vanquish showcases forged 21” alloy wheels, offered in Satin, Gloss, or Diamond Turned finishes, with a selection of different colours. They blend lightweight durability with dynamic performance, emphasising. This balance of strength and style exemplifies Aston Martin's dedication to engineering excellence.

Lights

All new LED headlights, with intricate design and textures, are engraved with the Aston Martin name. DRL and Matrix LED headlights with a 6-block design pattern use an AI-generated pyramid design to reduce light refraction. Taking inspiration from the LED light blades fitted to Valkyrie, Vanquish offers a rear light signature with 7 distinct light blades which accentuate the body profile and provide a characterful start up light sequence.

Roof

A first for an Aston Martin V12, Vanquish is fitted with a panoramic glass roof as standard. Tinted to allow 6% light transmission and using a low-coating to protect occupants from harmful UV-A and B rays, the roof retains privacy and negates the need for a traditional blind.

Rear

Kamm Tail

Inspired by iconic Aston Martin models of the past, such as DB5 and DB6, these models benefited from a rear Kamm Tail profile. The Kamm Tail presented a partial solution to the problem of aerodynamic lift, which was becoming severe as sports car racing speeds increased during the 1950s.

Exhaust System

Vanquish is bestowed with large quad exhaust tailpipes with a distinctive oval shape. These complement the muscular design character and a clear statement of the engine power output. With a stainless-steel system, Vanquish benefits from a unique muffler flow geometry and tailpipe configuration. These result in an enhanced range of frequencies and resonant behaviour that has been created to ensure aural lineage with the Vanquish bloodline.

Rear Diffuser

Enhancing the flow of low-pressure air under the car, the central rear diffuser and outer diffuser blades provide a clean and stable separation of airflow from the vehicle, assisting with stability at high speed and adding to the muscularity of the Vanquish's rear.
