The new Aston Martin Vantage, priced at Rs 3.99 crore (ex-showroom), has made its India debut today. The brand has confirmed that deliveries for the all-new Vantage will commence in the fourth quarter of 2024. Aston’s sports coupe has been extensively restyled on the outside, but even more significant are the updates to the interior. Under the hood, the Vantage retains the Mercedes-AMG-sourced 4.0-litre, twin-turbo V8 engine, but now produces more power than before.

  1. New Vantage is powered by a 665hp, 4.0-litre V8 engine
  2. New interior ditches all of its Mercedes influence
  3. Rivals Bentley Continental GT, Porsche 911   

Aston Martin Vantage powertrain, specs

The new Vantage continues to be powered by a Mercedes-AMG-sourced V8 engine. Still 4.0-litres in capacity and blown by a pair of turbos, output is hiked to 665hp and 800Nm, which makes the standard Vantage as quick as the outgoing V12: it has a 0-100kph time of just 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 325kph. For reference, the previous V8 car produced 510hp and 685Nm. Power is sent to the rear wheels via an 8-speed torque converter automatic gearbox.

 

Aston Martin Vantage exterior and interior

Visually, the new Vantage looks a lot more aggressive than its predecessor – there’s a huge grille up front that stretches almost the entire width of the front bumper; there are new intakes at the edges, the bonnet has stronger character line. One can even notice some resemblance with the One-77 supercar.

In profile, the air ducts on the fenders have been slightly redesigned, and at the rear, there’s a more aggressive bumper and diffuser setup. The new Vantage is also 30mm wider than before, thereby improving its overall stance, and there are new frameless mirrors and flush electronic door handles.

On the inside, the Vantage follows the DB12 with a completely new cockpit arrangement that majors on connectivity, engagement and refinement. The new Vantage ditches all of its Mercedes influence, and adopts a completely new, in-house developed infotainment platform. There’s a new 10.25-inch touchscreen running the bespoke software, and includes features like 3D live mapping and wireless smartphone mirroring.

Despite the focus on digitisation, Aston Martin remains a defender of physical switchgear, so it has retained them for the climate control stack, gear selector, drive control switch as well as several other vehicle functions. It also gets an all-new steering wheel and a new digital instrument cluster, and there’s a notable step-up in interior quality and fit and finish as well.
