If you’ve been keeping track of Aston Martin's portfolio, you might remember it was three years ago when the Vanquish name was dusted off. At the 2019 Geneva Motor Show, the peeps from Gaydon brought a concept for a mid-engined machine positioned below the Valhalla and the Valkyrie. Earlier this year, company CEO Tobias Moers told us the "entry-level" supercar is still happening. However, it won't hit the streets until 2025.
The folks at Autocar have learned more about the new baby supercar from Aston Martin. As previously reported, the Vanquish will eschew the originally planned in-house V6 in favor of AMG power. Specifically, it'll switch to Affalterbach's obsequious twin-turbo V8 installed in the larger high-performance German models.
