Is an 835hp V12 super-GT better than the Italian standard?
In short: The Aston Martin Vanquish has returned, and it is far more than a simple upgrade. This video explores whether this bespoke British machine can outclass Ferrari's 12Cilindri in the high-performance super-GT category.
The new Vanquish distinguishes itself from the DB12 by featuring an extra 80mm of wheelbase dedicated purely to aesthetics. It houses a bi-turbo V12 producing 835hp, wrapped in a unique carbon-skinned body designed to stand out from the rest of the Aston Martin lineup.
Priced at over £300,000, the car represents a significant leap into bespoke territory. The review examines whether these specific engineering and design choices allow it to surpass its primary Italian rival.
