Introduction
Vantage S
For Aston Martin, 'S' represents a heightening of the senses to deliver our most addictive driving experience. For the Vantage S, this translates to a hyper-focused, adrenaline-laced connection that is sharper and more visceral. It is a sports car built to strip away any buffer between driver, chassis, and tarmac, transforming raw dynamic force into sensory pleasure.
Specification Poise through Compliance.
True poise and agility are born from perfect harmony with the road surface. Equipped with recalibrated Bilstein DTX adaptive dampers and a directly mounted rear subframe, the Vantage S amplifies the sensations between your hands and the tarmac. And yet, by finessing the rear suspension to balance compression and rebound, the Vantage S breathes naturally over challenging surfaces, offering unshakeable composure.
Powertrain Dialogue, connected.
The Vantage S offers drivers unity between instant combustion response, razor-sharp gear transitions, and intuitive chassis systems. Power from the hand-built twin-turbo V8 flows through a recalibrated ZF eight-speed automatic transmission, integrated seamlessly with bespoke traction-shaping electronics. This interconnected network reads the limit of adhesion in real time, translating mechanical performance into crystal-clear feedback at the steering wheel.
THE PUREST V8 LEGACY.
The heart of the Vantage S represents a landmark moment for the front-engined, rear-wheel-drive sports car. By unlocking the full potential of the hand-built 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, the chassis is enriched with a class-defining 680PS and 800Nm of torque. This is a celebration of uncompromised internal combustion, engineered to deliver immediate response and a resonant, mechanical character that builds continuously to the redline.
TRACTION. PRECISION.
A shorter 3.083:1 final drive ratio sharpens the ZF eight-speed automatic transmission, delivering instantaneous in-gear acceleration. To cultivate absolute confidence when powering out of a bend, intelligent torque-shaping calibration works in seamless harmony with the Electronic Stability Control. The system actively optimises rear-axle traction to sharpen corner rotation, allowing you to feed in power early while keeping your connection to the limit of grip completely clear.
UNSPRUNG CLARITY.
Opting for Carbon Ceramic Brakes sheds 27kg of unsprung mass, immediately sweetening steering response and allowing the dampers to track asphalt imperfections with exquisite fidelity. Featuring 400mm front and 360mm rear grooved, drilled discs, the system remains completely impervious to fade even at temperatures of 800 degrees. This immense thermal resilience translates to a firm, beautifully consistent pedal feel, offering a highly predictable decay of speed under heavy deceleration.
Exterior The Physics of Form.
The visual character of the Vantage S is a direct translation of its dynamic objectives. Every line of its silhouette exists to balance extreme thermodynamic demands with high-speed stability. It is a shape sculpted to master the passing air, simultaneously pinning the chassis to the road and harmonising the overall handling balance from turn-in to apex.
THE APEX OF EXTRACTION.
The front of the Vantage S is defined by prominent, centrally mounted bonnet blades finished in gloss black or twill carbon fibre. While they lend a focused character to the nose, their primary purpose is highly functional: optimising the extraction of high-temperature air from the 'hot-V' of the twin-turbo V8, ensuring consistent, high-performance thermal efficiency under hard use.
A DISCREET PEDIGREE.
The profile of the Vantage S whispers its capability through subtle, handcrafted jewellery. Hand-forged brass 'S' fender badges, finished in rich red glass enamel, provide a quiet nod to Aston Martin’s high-performance lineage. This stance is anchored by bespoke 21-inch Y-spoke wheels, beautifully balancing structural stiffness with an athletic, focused footprint.
AERODYNAMIC EQUILIBRIUM.
The full-width decklid spoiler is the most explicit signature of the car's sharpened performance focus. Generating 44kg of downforce at maximum speed, it works in absolute unity with the front splitters. This carefully calculated bias ensures exceptional front-end bite and turn-in response, keeping the rear axle completely stable without corrupting the car's neutral handling balance.
GROUND-EFFECT RESOLVE.
Beneath the elegant bodywork lies a highly sophisticated underbody architecture. A redesigned front airdam and front venturi vanes work to channel high-velocity air beneath the car, creating a low-pressure zone that draws the chassis closer to the asphalt. This system contributes a further 67kg of downforce, anchoring the car at high speeds without requiring a stiff, punishing suspension setup.
Interior The Interface of Control.
Inside, the Vantage S is designed to close the gap between driver intent and physical execution. It is a highly focused environment where organic materials, tactile knurled metals, and deep-set seating ergonomics coalesce to form an active partnership. The cabin wraps tightly around you – acting not as a passive cocoon, but as a sensory conductor to heighten your appreciation of the car’s performance.
A BOLD CENTREPIECE.
Located at your fingertips, the knurled metal drive mode rotary dial is a striking mechanical anchor, available in a unique red or silver anodised finish. A single, tactile click recalibrates the powertrain instantly. This bold centrepiece is colour-matched to the seatbelts, contrast welting, and headrest embroidery, creating a cohesive flow of high-performance highlights throughout the cabin.
THE 'ACCELERATE' STANDARD.
The standard cockpit features a unique Alcantara® and leather 'Accelerate' interior, accented by satin carbon fibre trim inlays to minimise weight. Highlighting this handcrafted environment are the upper shoulder panels of the seats, proudly adorned with embroidered 'S' logos. Requiring almost 2,500 individual stitches and over 16 metres of thread, each emblem is a signature of high-performance luxury.
SCULPTED HERITAGE.
Paying homage to a legendary bloodline, the iconic Aston Martin wings are beautifully detailed on the headrests. Available as a unique option, a highly precise debossing and embossing technique uses 1.5 tonnes of extreme pressure and heat to permanently sculpt the wings directly into the leather, creating a subtle, three-dimensional graphic of tactile heritage.
THE PATTERN OF VELOCITY.
For an even deeper immersion, the optional Inspire Sport interior introduces full semi-aniline leather or Alcantara® in monotone and duotone palettes. The surfaces are detailed with an intricate, diminishing chevron quilting pattern surrounded by placed perforations. This unique design creates a striking visual impression of speed and motion from the moment you enter Vantage S.
Technology Sensory Intelligence.
Technology within the Vantage S acts as an electronic extension of the chassis itself. Anchored by Aston Martin’s next-generation in-house infotainment system, the cabin’s digital layer operates with cognitive immediacy. It is an intelligent framework designed to handle complex connectivity seamlessly in the background, ensuring the vital dialogue between driver, cockpit, and tarmac remains completely uninterrupted.
