Model Overview
The Aston Martin Vanquish S represents the ultimate evolution of Aston’s flagship grand tourer before it was succeeded by the DBS Superleggera. Introduced in 2017 as the final iteration of the second-generation Vanquish, the S took an already stunning GT and sharpened every edge both visually and mechanically. Powered by a naturally aspirated 5.9-litre V12 producing 595 bhp, the Vanquish S features a re-tuned intake system, quad exhaust tips, and recalibrated suspension for greater agility. Paired with the 8-speed Touchtronic III gearbox, it delivers more responsive shifts and seamless performance, while still maintaining Aston’s signature blend of refinement and drama.
Aerodynamic enhancements such as a deeper front splitter and rear diffuser not only add aggression to the styling but also reduce lift at high speed, improving stability. Inside, the Vanquish S benefits from luxurious materials and a more focused cockpit feel, making it as suitable for long-distance touring as it is for spirited backroad drives. As the swan song for Aston’s VH platform and naturally aspirated V12 era, the Vanquish S stands as a high watermark in Aston Martin’s modern legacy offering timeless styling, engaging performance, and a fitting farewell to a truly analogue breed of GT.
