The new Aston Martin Vantage S
Aston Martin dealers welcome the new V8 Aston Martin Vantage S which is characterised by a host of new driver-focused features all designed to push the honed dynamics of the standard Vantage to a new benchmark level.
The 4.7 litre V8 engine has been engineered to deliver peak power of 430 bhp (436 PS / 321 kW) at 7300 rpm and torque of 490 Nm (361 lb.ft) at 5000 rpm and is coupled with a new developed Sportshift II transmission designed for the Aston Martin Vantage S with seven short ratio gears to deliver intense driver involvement.
The core of the Aston Martin Vantage S is the new seven speed Sportshift II automated manual transmission which delivers exceedingly rapid gear changes, 20% quicker than Sportshift, and it permits shorter well-spaced ratios taking advantage of the optimum torque. The Sportshift II allows the driver to take an increased level of control, modulating the throttle pedal to achieve the desired type of gear change
The Aston Martin Vantage S benefits from a unique sound with a new exhaust muffler and bypass valve map, creating a very distinctive and highly vocal exhaust note.
Dr. Ulrich Bez, CEO of Aston Martin, said: “The Vantage S epitomises every attribute of the V8 Vantage and pushes the driver experience beyond what we have offered before, it combines dynamic exhilaration with all the charming finesse, beauty and practicality already associated with the Vantage range.”
Customers can now order the Aston Martin Vantage S at their local Aston Martin dealer or from any of the global dealership network.
