About the Aston Martin Vanquish S
The Vanquish S represents the final, most potent iteration of Aston Martin's second-generation flagship before the arrival of the DBS Superleggera. It is distinguished by an exposed carbon fibre aerodynamic package, including a revised front splitter and rear diffuser that significantly reduce frontal lift. The naturally aspirated 5.9-litre V12 was tuned with larger intake manifolds to produce 595 bhp (603 PS), making it one of the last great atmospheric engines from Gaydon. With a chassis refined for sharper handling and a recalibrated 8-speed Touchtronic III gearbox, it remains a pinnacle of the brand's 'Super GT' philosophy.
