Meet the New Vantage S: Aston Martin’s Fastest Yet

Aston Martin has officially revealed the Vantage S at the 2025 Goodwood Festival of Speed, presenting the most track-capable iteration of its Vantage lineup to date.

The Vantage S is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine, producing 671 brake horsepower and 800 Nm of torque. Throttle response has been custom-tuned to reflect the car's 'S' classification, with drive-by-wire inputs individually mapped across its driving modes. Launch Control has also been optimized, enabling the car to accelerate from 0 to 100 kilometers per hour in 3.4 seconds — an improvement of 0.1 seconds. Top speed is maintained at 325 kilometers per hour.

The aerodynamic redesign includes a new rear spoiler that adds 44 kilograms of rear downforce, contributing to the car's total 111 kilograms of downforce at high velocity. This upgrade provides better stability at top-end speeds.

Chassis updates include re-tuned Bilstein DTX adaptive dampers, offering improved steering feedback. The rear spring aid stiffness has been reduced for enhanced compression and rebound balance, improving comfort at lower speeds. Additionally, transmission mount stiffness has been decreased by 10%, refining the connection between the powertrain and chassis.

Exterior enhancements include carbon fiber bonnet inserts, 'S' badging on the front fenders, and a full-width rear decklid spoiler. The car is equipped with custom 21-inch Y-spoke wheels in satin black, complemented by red wheel accents and bronze-painted brake calipers.

The interior features Alcantara and leather 'Accelerate' upholstery, carbon fiber trim, and an embroidered Aston Martin logo on the headrests. The 'S' designation is also embroidered into the seat’s shoulder panels. Additional customization is available, including red or silver anodized finishes for the drive mode selector, color-matched to elements like seatbelts, stitching, and headrest embroidery.
