Aston Martin has revealed the all-new Vantage Roadster, blending its signature luxury with modern engineering for an updated take on the iconic model. Following the technical reinvention of the Vantage Coupe in 2024, the Roadster enhances its sibling’s performance and sophistication with open-top freedom.

Under the hood, the Vantage Roadster boasts a 4L V8 twin-turbo engine, delivering 655 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. This power propels the convertible to 60 mph in just 3.5 seconds, matching the Coupe’s top speed of 202 mph. A lightweight design ensures only a 60kg increase in weight over the Coupe, while the industry-leading Z-fold roof opens or closes in a quick 6.8 seconds, even at speeds of up to 31 mph — the fastest electronic convertible top on a modern sports car to date.

Aston Martin’s engineers designed the Roadster in parallel with the Coupe, maintaining structural rigidity and dynamic performance. Advanced Bilstein DTX adaptive dampers and bespoke Michelin Pilot Sport S 5 tires ensure precision handling, while race-inspired suspension and braking systems enhance confidence at any speed.

Visually, the Vantage Roadster retains the dramatic lines of the Coupe, whether the roof is up or down. New paint options, a choice of roof colors and customizable livery designs add to its bespoke appeal. Inside, next-generation infotainment features a Pure Black touchscreen alongside intuitive physical controls.

“This is a convertible without compromise,” said Adrian Hallmark, Aston Martin’s CEO. “The Vantage Roadster delivers a world-class, roof-down driving experience that elevates the dynamic legacy of the Vantage name.”

The new Vantage roadster is set for deliveries in Q2 2025. See more of the new Vantage Roadster in the video by Aston Martin below.
