More edge. More dominance. More thrill. Vantage S stands at the peak of Aston Martin performance. Raw, agile, and unrelenting. Bold aero features from bonnet blades to a full-width decklid spoiler amplify the aggressive stance. Beneath the sculpted skin, a hand-built 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 unleashes 680PS* and 800Nm. Solid-mounted subframe, a suite of lightweighting options and enhanced damper technology sharpen every response. The S badge is more than a mark – it's a dare.

Unrelenting. Undiluted. Unrivalled. Vantage S is engineered to engage real drivers with a more visceral experience. Crafted around class-leading engine output. Recalibrated for heightened urgency – from pedal feel to throttle response. Accelerator weighting and software tuning sharpened for lightning-fast reflexes and heightened agility.
Vantage S builds on what was already the most emphatic leap in power in over 70 years of the iconic Vantage marque. Unleashing the full potential of the hand-built twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8 to achieve a total power output of 680PS. And a staggering 800Nm of torque. As visceral as it is vocal. Securing its class-leading positioning with the highest output of any front-engined rear-wheel drive sports cars using purely an internal combustion engine.
Intelligent torque shaping works with the uniquely tuned Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system to transform every bend into a pulse-quickening pleasure. Corner exit speeds are enhanced. Stability and agility are heightened. Power flows seamlessly through the ZF 8-speed automatic transmission, whilst instantaneous in-gear punch and acceleration come courtesy of a shorter final drive ratio (3.083:1). Tailoring traction. Pinpointing grip. Maximising feel.
A solid-mounted steering column allows Vantage S to convey an unfiltered line between tarmac, tyres and steering wheel. A free flow of information delivered directly to the driver without any interference. More feedback creating a greater connection and intensified driver engagement.
Vantage S introduces a solid-mounted rear subframe to increase structural torsional stiffness. In addition to the targeted bracing, undertrays and thicker anti-roll bars already in place, this helps to further enhance body control.
Available with Carbon Ceramic Brakes (CCBs), a further 27kg of unsprung mass can be reduced. Vantage S brake discs are 400mm at the front, 360mm at the rear. Grooved and drilled for superior thermal management. Increasing braking efficiency and reducing brake fade at temperatures nearing 800 degrees. Boosting driver confidence for later braking. Empowering the driver to push the limits further. Painted brake calipers, fitted in Black, Red or Aston Martin Green as standard, offer a striking accent of colour and an evocative signal of performance.
The assertive aerodynamic design character leaves no doubt as to the performance intent of Vantage S. Centrally mounted bonnet blades support engine cooling. Directing airflow out of the engine bay and along the car to manage hot air away from the engine.
At the rear, a full-width decklid spoiler also increases its dominant road presence. Providing greater balance by increasing downforce at the rear of the vehicle by 44kg at Vmax. Downforce is front-biased, allowing improved turn-in and enhanced cornering grip.
The Vantage S exterior does more than simply catch your eye – it claims your undivided attention. Every dynamic line, every sculpted curve radiates precision and potency. Assertive new aerodynamics include centrally mounted bonnet blades at the front of the car and the addition of a full-width decklid spoiler at the rear. All carry an air of purposeful menace. A promise of blistering pace and immersive performance. The return of Vantage S. Engineered to amplify.
Centrally mounted optional carbon blades optimise hot-air extraction by channelling air away from the engine bay and Hot ‘V’ configured 4.0 litre V8 to dramatically aid cooling. Bonnet blades are matched to the Upper Body Package, including matching mirror caps, side strake and exhaust tail pipes. It can be specified in 2x2 Twill Carbon Fibre or Gloss Black as standard, bestowing dark brooding looks.
Formidable from nose to tail, the rear of Vantage S is adorned with a full-width lightweight carbon spoiler delivering aerodynamic balance at high speeds by increasing rear downforce by 44kg at Vmax. A rear diffuser and quad exhaust tailpipes sign off, as memorable for their visual impact as for their iconic stainless-steel roar.
The potent presence of Vantage S is amplified by 21” Multi Spoke Forged Alloy Wheels, available in a selection of Silver, Black and Satin Platinum finishes, and fitted as standard. Drivers can also specify the pinnacle Black Y-Spoke design, with a new Red graphic.
Vantage S displays intent, even when static. The side elevation showcases power and presence with the Lower Body Package featuring front splitter, side sill, rear diffuser and decklid spoiler. Available in a choice of 2x2 Twill Carbon Fibre or Gloss Black as standard, it gives Vantage S a dark assertive stance, appearing lower to the road. Finished with precision-engineered frameless door mirrors and presenting door handles. Iconic S badges are mounted on both fenders. Manufactured by the same artisans who craft the Aston Martin wings. Featuring a handmade, chrome-plated, brass forged ‘S’ filled with red glass enamel. Confirmation of Aston Martin’s high-performing bloodline.
Vantage S is equipped with LED headlights and signature daytime running lights (DRL). Cut in a 6-block pattern. They provide a distinct character and prevent refraction of light from the LED beam in its tracks. Intricately detailed and engraved with the Aston Martin wordmark. To leave your S signature on the night.
Satin Xenon Grey merges stealth and sophistication in a finish that echos liquid metal. Its mineral -like tone flows seamlessly over the sculpted form of Vantage S, while vivid red accents deliver a sharp commanding contrast, highlighting the inherent dynamism and performance-led design.
Apex Grey features an ultra-fine metallic finish that reveals striking highlights under changing light, accentuating every contour of Vantage S. Inside, Onyx Black semi-aniline leather and Alcantara® are complemented by Spicy Red accents, a bold, purposeful contrast that channels the Vantage S assertive character.
Rooted in Aston Martin’s racing heritage, Podium Green paired with vivid Lime accents creates a bold and unmistakable visual signature. This dynamic combination reflects the performance DNA of the Vantage S, reinforcing its athletic character with purposeful intensity.
The S cabin exudes sporting poise, defined by new interior refinements and assertive design cues that reflect the potency of Vantage S. Unique materials and advanced techniques – drawn from Aston Martin’s most innovative sports cars – set the tone. Digital fuses seamlessly with analogue. World-class luxury meets cutting-edge connectivity and craftsmanship. Step into the world of S. A letter like no other.
Vantage S introduces a heated sports steering wheel trimmed in Alcantara®, a lightweight material chosen for its performance feel and used throughout the cabin, from headlining to the seats and centre console. Finished in muted black with integrated heating and hands-on detection, it is also available with matching chrome accents to suit driver preference.
The performance seat’s low hip point connects the driver more closely to the car, offering a new sightline and greater precision behind the wheel. Every Vantage S interior includes embroidered S logos on the upper shoulder panels, with nearly 2,500 stitches and over 16 metres of thread. A clear statement of the car’s dedication to both luxury and performance.
A first in the automotive industry, Vantage S also offers optional ‘sculpted headrests’. Aston Martin wings are sculpted into both leather headrests using unique 3D embossing and debossing techniques formed with intense heat and extreme pressure of 1,500kg. Crafted with sub-millimetre precision to beautifully showcase Aston Martin’s artisan skills.
Vantage S is available with the optional S Interior Highlight Package. Beneath the perfectly placed floating centre console sits the rotary dial. It is machined from billet aluminium and anodised red, with tactile haptics to access the five drive modes – all at fingertip control. Drivers specify the Red finish which matches other highlighted features including contrast stitching, contrast welt, seatbelt and headrest embroidery.
The optional ‘Inspire S’ environment comes with S Herringbone quilting, ventilated seats, and leather upgrades to either full semi-aniline leather or semi-aniline leather and Alcantara®, in both monotone and duotone options. All working together for a more assertive design edge. New sill plaques showcase the S graphic etched on Silver or Black to subtly link with interior cabin jewellery.
