The new product by Aston Martin is fitted with a 5.2-litre Twin-Turbo V12 engine and is being sold as a new flagship model for the British Giant. The next-generation Aston Martin Vanquish has been launched in India at Rs. 8.85 crore (ex-showroom and options not included).
It is said that only 1000 units are to be made every year, and bookings have been commenced with deliveries expected to start later this year.
V12 Engine forever
The Vanquish is powered by a new 5.2-litre Twin-Turbo V12 delivering a staggering 833bhp and 1000Nm of torque that creates a new benchmark for supercar performance with massive in-gear acceleration and a top speed of 344kmph.
For the first time on an Aston Martin front-engined V12 sports car, the award-winning ZF 8-speed automatic transmission is matched with an electronic rear limited slip differential (e-diff).
Exterior Design Highlights
The Vanquish comes with an entirely new front bumper, fender, and grille appearance, providing an even more aggressive design personality and increased road presence. Matrix LED headlights bring in the brand's new light design with integrated Daytime Running Lights (DRLs).
One of the key design features is the Kamm Tail with a decklid spoiler integrated in to give aerodynamic balance front to rear. A clean styling feature of the rear-end is the 'Shield', which has been styled to look like it is floating at the rear of the vehicle.
Interior Design Highlights
Craftsmanship and attention to detail are a fundamental theme throughout the Vanquish interior. Intentionally designed as a 2 seat flagship, Vanquish's interior is centered around providing pleasure to the driver and sharing the visceral experience with only one other.
This complements the new interior design that has come so far in every next-generation sports car from Aston Martin, with Vanquish being given a one-off interior arrangement. The center console has been lowered to a horizontal level for an increased sense of clarity, room, and refinement.
Style Packs and feature lists
The Vanquish's interior also makes use of a mixture of materials to achieve sections of obvious lines in bright bold mannerisms to enhance the quality and luxury sense. For every jewellery pack spec, an attractive bright chrome horizon line supersedes a typical stitch line for the dashboard.
In an age of technology when touchscreens have the potential to overwhelm the interior, Vanquish still balances technology with surfaces that feel as luxurious and as intuitive to operate while driving as they ever have been. Toward this end, all the major driver controls are mounted centrally, leaving the most-used functions within reach in a further expression of the clarity and simplicity of a driver-centered interior.
As with all Aston Martin cars, Vanquish buyers can delve into limitless bespoke and customization options through the Q by Aston Martin personalization service.
Official Statement from Chairman
Talking of the breathtaking new V12 flagship, Aston Martin Executive Chairman, Lawrence Stroll, had this to say: "With the launch of Vanquish we have capped Aston Martin's next-generation sports car range. A genuine halo model in all senses, Vanquish makes a bold statement. One that further reinforces our commitment to producing the most powerful, most stunning, and most exhilarating cars in the ultra-luxury sports car segment," he said.
Conclusion
The Aston Martin Vanquish is the ultimate definition of luxury, performance, and state-of-the-art engineering. Equipped with its powerful 5.2-litre Twin-Turbo V12 engine, bold yet sophisticated design, and an exquisitely crafted interior, it creates a new benchmark in the ultra-luxury sports car category. With only 1000 units produced each year, the Vanquish's exclusivity makes it even more coveted by car enthusiasts. Being Aston Martin's new flagship vehicle, the Vanquish is a genuine reflection of the company's history of innovation and craftsmanship, presenting an unmatched driving experience for the people who aspire for the exceptional.
