Behind familiar styling, the Vantage gets an all-new interior and a serious power upgrade.
We are already in a world where combustion cars live alongside the EVs that will ultimately displace them; like dinosaurs sharing the planet with those nifty new mammals. At the sharpest and most expensive end of the market, the difference between the two competing evolutionary strains is already stark, and despite 656 hp, the heavily revised Aston Martin Vantage arrives as an also-ran on raw performance. It’s not even close.
On road, the new car feels more GT-ish than its predecessor did, despite firmer suspension settings, especially in the gentlest of the switchable drive modes. This is labeled Sport, but in Spain it felt more like a comfort setting, the adaptive dampers remaining soft enough to allow plenty of suspension travel over bumps and compressions but without becoming floaty.
