Aston Martin is adding a convertible to the new Vanquish. Visually, the Vanquish Volante is very similar to the coupé. The open-top sports car is powered by a 5.2-liter V12 twin turbo engine with 614 kW.
Aston Martin Vanquish Volante (2025)
Aston Martin Lagonda
Aston Martin is following up the Vanquish Coupé with an open-top version. The two-seater Vanquish Volante has a broad stature and flowing curves. The front bumper, fenders and radiator grille of the Vanquish Volante are designed in the same way as the coupé. The traditional radiator grille with louvres offers a 13 % larger surface area. New air vents at the outer corners of the bumper direct cooling air into the front wheel arches.
The matrix LED headlights incorporate the new light signature with integrated daytime running lights. The raised, comb-like rear end is the dominant feature. The wheelbase has been extended by 80 mm, emphasizing the aesthetics of the vehicle with its long bonnet and rear-mounted cab. The K-folding roof can be opened in 14 seconds and closed in 16 seconds. It can be operated up to a speed of 50 km/h.
Carbon-ceramic brakes are standard, with discs 27 kg lighter than conventional iron discs. A bonded aluminum body structure supports the chassis and driving dynamics systems. The optimized, stiffer floor pan offers 75 % greater lateral stiffness than the previous convertible.
Interior Layout of the Coupé
The Vanquish Volante adopts the interior layout introduced in the Vanquish coupé and which will be found in all future Aston Martin models. The next generation Aston Martin infotainment system features a 10.25" TFT digital driver display and an integrated 10.25" touchscreen in Pure Black with online connectivity. This has capacitive single- or multi-finger gesture control. The Vanquish Volante is equipped with Sport Plus seats as standard. Carbon performance seats are available as an option.
Twin-Turbo V12 with 5.2 l Displacement Offers 614 kW
The Vanquish Volante is powered by Aston Martin's new 5.2-liter V12 engine with two turbochargers, which, according to Aston Martin, produces 614 kW (835 hp) and makes the Vanquish the most powerful production convertible in the company's history. The V12 engine develops its maximum torque at 2,500 rpm – exactly half the speed of its predecessor – and is said to maintain this value of 1,000 Nm throughout the entire speed range from 2,500 to 5,000 rpm. A top speed of 345 km/h is achieved. The Vanquish Volante's overall weight has increased by 95 kg, raising the power-to-weight ratio from 313 to 416 hp per ton.
Power is transferred to the rear wheels via an eight-speed ZF transmission, which is mounted on the rear axle and features the same electronic differential (E-Diff) as the Vanquish coupé. In conjunction with the latest Electronic Stability Program (ESP), the dynamic driving characteristics are improved. The Vanquish Volante adopts the traction and stability control systems of the coupé.
The new Vanquish Volante is available to order now in limited numbers, with first deliveries scheduled for the third quarter of 2025.
