New Vantage finally get the V12 treatment, but only to say goodbye, as this will be the last V12-powered Vantage From Aston. It will be a special edition with production limited to 333 units, of which all have been sold already. Being one of the last of an era, this Vantage V12 is likely to become a collectors item in the near future as the V12 engine slowly dies out.
Mounted in a widebody edition of the Vantage, the V12 is the same 5.2L quad-cam unit found in the DB11 . Peak power has been increased to 690 hp and torque to 555 lb-ft, matching the specs of the Speedster . Aston are claiming a top speed of 200 mph and a 0-62 mph sprint time of 3.4 seconds. A reworked eight-speed ZF gearbox has the job of handling the gear changing, and a mechanical limited slip differential should help with power management at the rear.
