The new Vantage is a statement of intent from Aston Martin. It follows soon after the radically updated DB12 and packs 30% more power than its predecessor.
Aston says it is “engineered for real drivers” and there’s a complex stability control system, honed for use on the race track and with eight levels of assistance. The company says it wants to charge up-market, away from the likes of Bentley and Maserati, and into a league that’s home to McLaren, Ferrari and Lamborghini.
