UNVEILING THE ALL-NEW VANTAGE: DESIGNED FOR TRUE DRIVERS
New Delhi, 29th August: Aston Martin New Delhi is excited to introduce the new Vantage in India, priced at ₹3.99 Cr plus personalized options. As the latest addition to a 74-year legacy, the all-new Vantage emerges as a leading contender in our lineup, crafted for enthusiasts who demand both performance and luxury. This launch represents Aston Martin’s bold move to set new standards in sports car excellence within the Indian market.
The new Vantage, reimagined with a contemporary touch, upholds the essence of high-performance sports cars while catering to modern demands. This iteration honors cherished qualities of power, precision handling, and a finely tuned front-engine, rear-wheel-drive chassis—qualities that have become increasingly rare.
Following the acclaimed launches of the DB12 Coupe and Volante, the Vantage joins a prestigious roster of ultra-luxury sports cars, GTs, SUVs, and hypercars, reinforcing Aston Martin’s status in the high-end automotive world.
Tracing its origins to 1950 when “Vantage” first denoted an enhanced engine for the DB2, the nameplate evolved into a standalone model in 1964 with the DB5 and has been a staple of Aston Martin’s offerings ever since, known for its impeccable style and performance.
The new Vantage embodies a transformative chapter in Aston Martin’s 111-year history. It features a bold exterior with an aggressive grille, aerodynamic lines, and a dynamic profile. Inside, the cabin offers a mix of luxury and technology, including premium materials, a state-of-the-art infotainment system, and advanced driver assistance features such as adaptive cruise control and lane-keeping assist.
Aston Martin’s Chief Executive Officer, Amedeo Felisa, remarked, “In a time of significant change in high-performance cars, staying true to our legendary values is crucial. The new Vantage is designed to uphold these values with unparalleled performance and the latest technologies. It combines class-leading power and speed with a perfectly balanced chassis, making it a sports car with thrilling capabilities. The Vantage’s assertive design, new interior, and cutting-edge infotainment set a new benchmark in sports car excellence.”
The Vantage features a reworked 4.0 Twin-Turbo V8 engine, delivering an impressive 665PS and 800Nm of torque—30% more power and 15% more torque than its predecessor. This engine, paired with an 8-speed ZF automatic transmission, achieves a top speed of 202mph and accelerates from 0 to 60mph in just 3.4 seconds. A new Launch Control system optimizes performance, while advanced cooling features ensure engine stability.
Handling is enhanced by a bonded aluminum structure with a 50:50 weight distribution, additional underbody stiffening, and intelligent adaptive dampers. The Vantage’s Electronic Power Assisted Steering (EPAS) offers precise responses, supported by Michelin Pilot Sport S 5 tires and lightweight 21” forged alloy wheels. Optional Carbon Ceramic Brakes provide even greater stopping power.
Externally, the Vantage presents a muscular stance with a 30mm wider body, a 38% larger grille for better cooling, and new Matrix LED headlights. The rear design features a wider bumper and larger quad exhausts. Inside, it combines luxury with modern technology, including a 15-speaker Bowers & Wilkins sound system, a 10.25” touchscreen infotainment system, and seamless smartphone integration. Production starts in Q1 2024, with deliveries set for Q2 2024.
