A New Chapter for the Vantage Legacy

With the launch of the new Aston Martin Vantage S, the iconic British marque delivers a sharper, faster, and more focused sports car that elevates the Vantage lineage to new heights. Designed for driving purists, the Vantage S blends breathtaking performance, bespoke craftsmanship, and unmistakable British character in a package that feels both timeless and cutting-edge.

While the base Vantage is no slouch, the S version introduces significant enhancements in handling, aerodynamics, and power delivery—making it a clear step forward for enthusiasts seeking more from their Grand Tourer.

Aggressive Yet Elegant Design Language

Visually, the Vantage S retains the muscular proportions of the standard Vantage but amplifies its road presence with aerodynamic upgrades. A redesigned front splitter, more pronounced rear diffuser, and sculpted side skirts contribute to both improved downforce and a more aggressive silhouette.

The grille is wider and sharper, echoing design cues from Aston Martin’s GT racing cars, while unique S badging and optional carbon fiber accents underscore its motorsport inspiration. Furthermore, new lightweight forged wheels and bespoke color options enhance the car’s exclusivity and visual drama.

Engineered for Performance on Road and Track

At the heart of the Vantage S lies a hand-built 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine—developed in collaboration with Mercedes-AMG—that now delivers 665 horsepower and 800 Nm of torque, thanks to recalibrated mapping and refined internals.

This powertrain propels the car from 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds, with a top speed of 325 km/h. Power is channeled through an 8-speed ZF automatic transmission tuned for lightning-quick gear shifts, while the new Launch Control system ensures explosive starts with maximum grip.

To handle this power, Aston Martin has implemented stiffer suspension settings, adaptive dampers, and a recalibrated electronic differential—resulting in sharper turn-in, greater mid-corner stability, and improved road feedback.

Interior – Precision Meets Luxury

Inside, the Vantage S maintains Aston Martin’s signature blend of refinement and racing inspiration. The cabin features a driver-focused cockpit wrapped in the finest leather and Alcantara, with contrast stitching and “Vantage S” branding subtly embedded throughout.

Lightweight sports seats come standard, and the center console houses tactile aluminum switchgear alongside a revised infotainment interface that supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Optional carbon fiber trim packages and a bespoke audio system by Bowers & Wilkins elevate the experience to grand touring perfection.

Technology with an Edge

Beyond performance, the Vantage S integrates a suite of advanced technologies to enhance control and safety. Systems like Dynamic Torque Vectoring, Stability Control, and Track Mode allow drivers to tailor the car’s behavior to their environment—whether on a winding road or a closed circuit.

The braking system has also been upgraded with carbon-ceramic discs for improved fade resistance and weight reduction, while the Vantage’s aluminum-intensive structure keeps curb weight down for optimal handling dynamics.

A Driver’s Car Refined to Perfection

The Aston Martin Vantage S is more than just a performance upgrade—it is the embodiment of what a modern-day sports car should be. It captures the thrill of driving in its purest form, without sacrificing elegance, comfort, or individuality.

Aston Martin CEO Lawrence Stroll summed it up best:
“The Vantage S represents everything our customers love about Aston Martin—performance, emotion, and unmistakable design—all turned up to eleven.”

The Ultimate Vantage

In a world of increasingly digital and synthetic driving experiences, the Vantage S is a welcome reminder that soul, sound, and steering feel still matter. This is a car built for those who drive not just to arrive, but to feel alive.

Whether carving through alpine roads or dominating track days, the Aston Martin Vantage S sets a new benchmark for what a contemporary British sports car can be.
