The Aston Martin Vanquish is turning 25, and rather than retire its flagship, it’s set to die another day with the launch of a limited-edition special, built by its Q division.<\/p>\n

Called the Vanquish 25, just 25 coupe and 25 Volante convertible versions will be made, either with 2+0 or 2+2 seating.<\/p>\n

Underneath the bespoke trim it’s the same third-generation Vanquish that arrived in 2024 as Aston Martin’s most powerful series-production car in its 113-year history, meaning no changes to the show-stopping 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12.<\/p>\n

The V12 beating heart still produces 614kW and 1000Nm, sending the Vanquish 25 from 0-100km\/h in 3.3 seconds, and on to a top speed of 344km\/h.<\/p>\n

Aston Martin says the Vanquish 25’s design draws inspiration from the original Ian Callum-designed Vanquish that debuted at the 2001 Geneva motor show, reworked with modern materials and finishing techniques.<\/p>\n

Exterior changes are led by an exclusive Q Skye Silver paint finish, along with metal foil detailing on the side sills and shield vanes, foil Aston Martin script, and a bespoke exhaust finisher with stainless steel side strakes.<\/p>\n

There’s also unique ‘Vanquish 25’ badging and a subtle ‘V’ motif worked into the 21-inch forged alloy wheels.<\/p>\n

nside, buyers get new trim perforation patterns and splits, seatbacks embroidered with the ‘Vanquish 25’ logo, laser-etched trim inlays, a bright red engine start\/stop button surrounded by bespoke rotary detailing, and black Alcantara headlining.<\/p>\n

Three interior colourways are offered: Onyx Black, Oxford Tan, or Phantom Grey.<\/p>\n

Aston Martin’s head of Q, Vittorio Gabba, said the special edition was a fitting way to mark the nameplate’s history.<\/p>\n

“25 years on from the unveiling of the very first Vanquish it is only right that we mark this nameplate’s contribution to our heritage,” Gabba said.<\/p>\n

The Vanquish 25 will make its public debut at Monterey Car Week in California in August, with first deliveries slated for the final quarter of 2026.<\/p>\n

Aston Martin hasn’t released pricing, though given the exclusivity and bespoke Q treatment, buyers should expect a significant premium over the standard Vanquish’s asking price of $753,000 plus on-roads for the coupe, and $813,000 for the Volante.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Aston Martin Vanquish 25 coupe (left) and Volante convertible (right) The Aston Martin Vanquish is turning 25, and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":817982,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[64,63,105],"class_list":["post-817981","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-technology"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/817981","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=817981"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/817981\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/817982"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=817981"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=817981"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=817981"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
