The Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance has been the stage where the new Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato Volante has been seen, a variant of this popular and powerful model that has arrived at the American event to be seen and to showcase a spectacular car with a lot to say. This model wants to take the spotlight and will be present at the event, demonstrating the brand’s ability to create cars more impressive than it usually does.

As with the fixed-roof version, only 99 units of this model will be built, starting from a price of 500,000 euros, a sizeable figure that shows we are looking at a remarkable car with technology and capabilities that go beyond the norm. This variant is part of the Zagato family, which has already appeared in several of the brand’s models, such as the DB7 Zagato, the DB AR1 from 1983 and the original V8 Vantage Volante from 1987.

The convertible model is identical to the coupé, although it has replaced the fixed roof with a fabric one. As for the Zagato touch, it is marked by a redesigned front fascia, with improved fog lights and a rear section that incorporates the same exclusive changes applied to the coupé. In this respect, the rear lights give a very similar look to the Vulcan, the model that is only available for use on the track.

The Vanquish Zagato Volante is powered by a 5.9-litre V12 engine, which may soon be discontinued after this model. Compared with the model it is based on, this engine raises the power from 568 to 592 CV, with a 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 3.7 seconds. The results obtained from the partnership between Zagato and Aston Martin have produced truly spectacular cars, and this new model is just another step in the union and collaboration between the two companies.
