Aston Martin Vanquish Volante

Wednesday, Jul 23, 2025 12:00 AM

We (nearly) run out of superlatives to describe Aston’s fastest, most powerful and most expensive open top car It’s 90kg heavier. Anti roll bar stiffness and rear spring rates have been upped by 7%. And the roof goes up and down. There you go. The material differences between the coupe and this Aston Martin Vanquish Volante.Long gone are the days where ripping the roof off ruined the rigidity of a car. The foundational structure, Aston’s chief engineer Simon Newton, reassures me, is basically the same between the regular Aston Martin Vanquish and the Volante. The interior, too, is the same as the regular car, and it continues with that car’s raison d’être. This is a two-tonne bruiser of a super GT-cum-supercar. A 5.2-litre V12-engined £360,000 2.0-metre wide screaming flare that signals “I am doing very well for myself”.
