The next Aston Martin Vantage is already here, at least in photos

Although the new Aston Martin Vantage will not be presented until late this year, the British brand did not want us to get through the summer without a first look at the new incarnation of its model, so it has released a short series of images of the car. Don’t expect to see much of the car, since it is conveniently camouflaged, and we already know that with this type of body paint it is hard to make out the details of the bodywork.

What this paint pattern designed to confuse cameras cannot hide is the presence of slim headlights, together with a front grille that reminds us of the one we have seen on other cars from the brand. In terms of styling, we can see little more in these images, which have been carefully taken to prevent many details of the model from being revealed.

At the rear we can clearly see a large diffuser and a twin exhaust that gives it a more aggressive and attractive look. And we know little more because the brand is jealously guarding all the secrets of this model. Among them, the platform. We can assume it will use a version of the platform that is also used by the DB11, although, as we said, this is only a feeling, since nothing concrete is known about the model that will reach the market during 2018.

As for the engine, there are also suspicions about what will power this spectacular car. It would be a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 which in the DB11 delivers 503 CV and a maximum torque of 695 Nm, although it could be retuned to offer slightly less of both. If it keeps the DB11’s configuration, the Vantage’s acceleration time will be 4 seconds and it will reach a top speed of 301 km/h. Is this what we will find in the end? Enjoy the photos, and as soon as we have more information, we will publish it.
