2025 (25) | Aston Martin Vanquish Volante (VAT Q)

The Aston Martin Vanquish Volante represents the open-top flagship of Aston Martin’s front-engined sports car range, combining V12 performance with grand touring refinement and open-air driving capability. Powered by a 5.2-litre twin-turbocharged V12 producing 824 bhp and 1,000 Nm of torque, paired with an 8-speed ZF automatic transmission and electronic rear differential, it delivers 0-62 mph in around 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 214 mph. Compared with the Coupé, the Volante retains the same core chassis and powertrain technology while introducing a fully retractable K-fold fabric roof, engineered to preserve structural rigidity and high-speed refinement without significantly compromising performance. The roof can be opened or closed in seconds, allowing the car to transition seamlessly between refined grand tourer and open-top super GT.

Advanced chassis systems include adaptive Bilstein DTX dampers, rear-wheel steering, electronic stability systems and multiple drive modes, giving the Vanquish Volante exceptional breadth of ability across long-distance touring and high-performance driving. Extensive use of lightweight materials and active aerodynamic development further enhance agility and stability. Inside, the cabin combines Aston Martin’s latest infotainment architecture with handcrafted materials, premium leather and a driver-focused cockpit design. The result is a high-performance V12 convertible that blends dramatic styling, exceptional performance and long-distance usability in one of Aston Martin’s most technically advanced open-top models.
