New Vantage Roadster redefines the rules with a design that provides the panache, sense of freedom and adventure for which convertibles are famed, but without the limitations traditionally inherent in their design. As beautiful as its hard-top coupe companion, new Vantage Roadster features the fastest operating fully automatic roof on the market, opening or closing fully in just 6.8 seconds, and at speeds of up to 31mph (50km/h). This is a sculptural and engineering masterpiece that enables drivers to enjoy the complete freedom of the open road utterly without compromise.
Powered by the majestic Aston Martin 665PS/800Nm 4.0-litre V8 twin-turbo engine, new Vantage Roadster brings all the class-leading performance, dynamic sensations, and visual excitement of the coupe model, with an additional dimension of roof-down freedom for the ultimate ultra-immersive, open-air driving experience. The top speed remains the same as Vantage Coupe at 202 mph, with the sprint from rest to 60mph taking just 3.5 seconds.
Thanks to its ultra-stiff yet lightweight aluminium structure, composite body panels and 49:51 front-to-rear weight distribution, Vantage Roadster provides the ideal platform for an unmatched driving experience. Featuring race-inspired unequal-length double wishbones at the front, a multi-link rear axle, coil springs and Bilstein DTX adaptive dampers (with a bespoke tune), along with a non-isolated steering column, Vantage Roadster provides the pure precision, balance, poise and, above all, confidence that are the unmistakable hallmarks of the truly great high performance driver’s car.
