Aston Martin launches Vanquish S with nearly 600 horsepower

Following the success of the DB11, Aston Martin launched the upgraded version of the Vanquish.

The Vanquish S retains the 6.0-liter V12 heart, but power has increased by 30 horsepower, from 565 to 595 horsepower at 7,000 rpm and maximum torque reaches 628 Nm at 5,500 rpm.

The Vanquish S's 0-100 km/h acceleration time has been reduced from 3.8 seconds to 3.5 seconds. Top speed remains at 321 km/h.

In addition, the Vanquish S is equipped with an 8-speed “Touchtronic III” automatic transmission, which provides faster gear changes and smoother, quieter acceleration. Traction control is also standard equipment on this model.

The Vanquish S also gets upgraded suspension and an aero package, including a full carbon fiber front bumper and rear diffuser to reduce lift, helping the car operate stably at high speeds.

At the rear, the taillights have many similarities with the One-77 supercar, two dual exhaust pipes on both sides combined with a carbon diffuser add to the car's ruggedness.

The interior of the car has a contrasting style with premium Alcantara leather seats sewn with prominent white thread, the dashboard is also made of carbon fiber.

The Aston Martin Vanquish S starts at £199,950, a £7,000 premium over the standard Vanquish. The Vanquish S Volante starts at £211,950. Customers can take delivery of the Vanquish S from December this year.
