The Aston Martin Vanquish Volante Defies Logic: Review
It might be a mistake to look at the new Aston Martin Vanquish Volante too rationally. With a starting price of $489,700, it's crazy expensive both at face value and relative to Aston Martin's other cars—the excellent DB12 Volante is over $200,000 less. But why look at the Vanquish Volante rationally when you could just, well, look at it . Is there a better-looking convertible on sale today? Is there anything with quite such panache and presence? Is there anything with such an evocative name, with the performance and soundtrack to back it up? For my money, probably not. Quick Specs 2026 Aston Martin Vanquish Volante Engine Twin-Turbo 5.2-Liter V-12 Output 824 Horsepower / 738 Pound-Feet 0-60 MPH 3.3 Seconds Base Price / As-Tested $489,700 / $595,300 That's how Aston Martin hopes people will see the Vanquish Volante. We can't call it Aston Martin's flagship, as the company will soon launch the 1,000-plus-horsepower Valhalla hypercar. But the Vanquish is the pinnacle of the traditional Aston—a gorgeous, imposing grand tourer with a monster V-12 up front. This carbon-bodied car will be rare, too. Aston Martin will only make 1,000 examples per year, 400 of which will be open-top Volantes. It recasts the V-12 as something a lot more exclusive than it was before, something for those who want it badly enough to pay the enormous premium. There's nothing like a V-12. That high-pitched starter-motor sound that gives way to a flare of revs settling down into a smooth idle never fails to make you feel like a million bucks. Aston essentially redesigned its twin-turbocharged 5.2-liter V-12 for the Vanquish, and the result is 824 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque. Which is a lot. Photo by: Chris Perkins / Motor1 Photo by: Chris Perkins / Motor1 Photo by: Chris Perkins / Motor1 Pros: Outrageous Speed, V-12 Soundtrack & Smoothness, Stunning Looks Aston Martin threw all of its technical know-how, a very advanced traction and stability control system, wide tires, and an electronic limited-slip differential at the problem, but 824 hp and 738 pound-feet of torque is a lot for two rear Pirellis. The first time you try to get the power down hard out of a slow corner, you realize just how much this V-12 has. Like the new Vantage, too, the Vanquish is pretty stiff at the rear, so it can feel skittish at times. Be measured with your throttle inputs, though, and the rewards are massive. This car is effortlessly fast. Shift around 4,000 rpm and you won't think you're doing much until you look down at the speedometer. Rev the V-12 out and then things get really exciting, with all sorts of pace and a hard-edged (if ever-so-slightly turbo-muted) soundtrack. As with the DB12 and Vantage, the Vanquish uses an eight-speed automatic transaxle at the back, and it shifts quickly and smoothly, though not as crisply as dual-clutch on downshifts. Simon Newton, Aston's head of vehicle dynamics, said that with its other new models, the company reduced the final-drive ratio to provide more in-gear punch. With the V-12, the Vanquish didn't need that tweaking. It's got plenty of punch, and that taller final drive gives it the classic striding GT car feel. At 2,000 rpm in 8th, you'll be doing 97 mph; at 3,000, you'll be doing 145 mph. To use a technical term, the Vanquish Volante has legs. Photo by: Chris Perkins / Motor1 Cons: Firm Low-Speed Ride, Too-Familiar Interior, So Expensive It's not power without finesse either. Aston developed a new feature called 'Boost Reserve' that juggles the throttle opening and wastegates to keep the turbos spooled up when you lift the accelerator. You can actually hear the turbos whistling away on the overrun with the top down, and the feature works amazingly well. There's no perceptible lag from behind the wheel. The Vanquish Volante isn't just an engine with some car attached, either. The chassis is a wonderful thing on its own. This is a big, heavy car, but it doesn't drive like it. And not in an artificial way, with rear-wheel steering or active anti-roll bars trying to compensate for the size—just very good spring and damper tuning. Photo by: Chris Perkins / Motor1 Being a convertible, there's a bit of cowl shake over rough surfaces, and in general, the low-speed ride can be firm, but the dampers do a wonderful job of rounding off any hard edges. And as you build up speed, the car seems to free up a bit, flowing with the road beautifully. There are three damper settings, but frankly, I see no need to switch them from their softest 'GT' mode, which provides the right amount of control and compliance. Aston Martin has also done a great job with the steering, too. It's heavy, yet in a natural way, with weight building in concert with load increasing on the front tires. And while the Vanquish has a super-sharp front end, with a rear that follows very quickly, the steering is never nervous. Unlike in a Ferrari, where you really have to be measured with your inputs, the Vanquish feels intuitive. When you're not engaging in a bit of grand touring, the Vanquish Volante is perfectly usable as an everyday car. Roof up, it's admirably quiet, and while you're always conscious of the size, it's not unwieldy. There's also no low splitter to scrape, and the visibility is quite good for a car like this. Photo by: Chris Perkins / Motor1 Photo by: Chris Perkins / Motor1 Photo by: Chris Perkins / Motor1 The interior is lovely, trimmed with rich-smelling leather everywhere you look. Although it doesn't look or feel that different from the cabin of a DB12 or Vantage. Those cars have lovely interiors, too, but for the extra $200,000-plus, there isn't much that sets the Vanquish apart. Still, Aston has smartly integrated a lot of physical knobs and buttons that feel wonderful and increase ease-of-use, and Apple CarPlay Ultra integration makes all infotainment functions a cinch. Though note that it's only as good as your phone—you'll need a relatively new iPhone for it to work at its best, and if your phone overheats in the wireless charger, you're out of luck. It would be an extravagant car to daily drive, of course, but with that V-12 constantly humming along, it would be a hell of a lot of fun too. Just don't expect to fit much in the trunk, especially with the top down. Photo by: Chris Perkins / Motor1 Really, the choice between coupe and Volante is a matter of personal preference. I don't think the drop-top looks quite as good as the coupe, but it's still one of the most beautiful, striking cars on sale today. And while there are some dynamic compromises from losing the roof, they're hardly great enough to spoil the car. Park the Vanquish Volante next to a DB12, and it doesn't make a ton of sense. But just look at it. Listen to it. Drive it. Say the words 'Aston Martin Vanquish Volante.' Suddenly, it makes all the sense in the world.

2026 Vanquish Volante Drive: The Aston Martin of Aston Martins
Posh, high-performance coupes and convertibles have long been Aston Martin's stock in trade. Modern Aston Martin's pursuit of growth—part of its quest for profitability—has seen the brand expand into sports cars, supercars, SUVs, and ultra-low-production variants thereof. But ultrafast, ultraluxe, and ultralovely grand touring coupes and convertibles remain at the brand's core. Cars like the new Vanquish, which arrived last fall as a stunning coupe, and now the Vanquish Volante, its open-top counterpart. Both stand as the ultimate expression of Aston Martin–ness. That means the Vanquish occupies a loftier perch than the thematically similar DB12, which also is available in Volante form. Differences versus its penultimate sibling can be summarized as: size, style, and motivation. Befitting its status, the Vanquish is the most grandly proportioned of Aston Martin's grand tourers. It is 6.5 inches longer overall, and its wheelbase extends 3.1 inches inches further than the DB12's. All of that extra wheelbase is situated between the base of the windshield and the front axle, as the front of the car effectively stretches forward, a visual totem of the Vanquish's other great differentiator: its V-12 engine, which nestles entirely behind the front axle. view exterior photos Aston Martin The twin-turbocharged 5.2-liter V-12 is a fresh design, even as this engine configuration dwindles to a tiny dot in the firmament of modern powertrains. But it burns more brightly than ever, boasting 64 more horses than Aston's last V-12, its 823 horsepower and 738 pound-feet of torque sent rearward to an eight-speed ZF transaxle, which incorporates an electronic differential. Unleashing that much thrust on public roads (particularly in the crowded environs of New York City) is a challenge, and for a while, we're only able to delve partway into the accelerator's long travel. After crossing the Hudson, we succumb to brief bursts on the Palisades Parkway. They reveal a ferociously reactive powertrain that lets loose a refined roar when provoked. We flap the paddles to extend the music, which is more vocal in Sport than in the standard GT mode, although you can also switch to the louder exhaust mode via a button on the center console. Far outside the city at last, we're able to give the Vanquish Volante more leash. The ZF gearbox—a torque-converter automatic rather than a dual-clutch—manages to be both ultraquick and supersmooth. Powering out of corners or pummeling empty straights, the V-12 just pulls and pulls, with tremendous torque across a wide band—max grunt is available from 2500 rpm. Even at go-directly-to-jail speeds, there's still so much more. Aston claims a top speed of 214 mph. Carbon-ceramic brakes, which were optional on the DBS, are standard on the Vanquish. With just one set of hardware to tune for, Aston's engineers were able to dial in fantastic brake-pedal action that responds more to pressure than to travel and yet doesn't feel overly touchy. It perfectly complements the accelerator-pedal effort and even the steering heft, creating harmony among the major controls. view exterior photos Aston Martin There are four drive modes—GT, Sport, Sport+, and Wet—as well as an Individual setting to mix and match from among them. But the changes they effect are subtle. In any mode, the steering remains perfectly weighted and more relaxed than darty. The Aston Martin–blend Pirelli P Zero PZ4s (275/35ZR-21 front, 325/30ZR-21 rear) are certainly low-profile, and yet this Aston never feels harsh, even over broken pavement—of which we encountered plenty in our drive from midtown Manhattan out to the hinterlands and back. The Vanquish is utterly composed over lumpy, twisting two-lanes tackled at extralegal speeds, the chassis tuning allowing enough compliance to keep from upsetting the car. This is a grand tourer, not a racer. view exterior photos Aston Martin Simon Newton, Aston's director of vehicle performance, says that the convertible was developed alongside the coupe, and that they aimed to deliver the same driving performance between the two. They adjusted for the slight weight difference (Aston says the Volante is about 200 pounds heavier with a claimed 50/50 weight distribution) by increasing the rear spring rates and front anti-roll-bar stiffness each by 7 percent. On the subject of stiffness, the convertible adds a structural crossbrace behind the front seats, and there's extra structure across the top of the rear suspension and in the sills. Like the coupe, the Volante's bonded-aluminum architecture is draped in carbon-fiber body panels. And what panels they are. The Vanquish is, quite objectively, a stunner, no less so in Volante form than as a coupe. The compact-stacking fabric top doesn't interrupt the graceful bodywork when tucked away, and it stows in just a claimed 14 seconds, a feat that can be performed on the move at low speeds. Raise the top (in 16 seconds), and it provides eight layers of insulation from the world outside. view interior Photos Aston Martin The world inside is leather lined and beautifully finished. Like the coupe, the Volante is strictly a two-seater. Those seats are comfortable, and without over-large side bolsters, ingress and egress aren't needlessly challenging. Behind them, small coves can accommodate a small backpack or handbag. You sit deep in this car, with the beltline up around shoulder level and a fairly high cowl. The slope of the dashboard, scooped-out door panels, and a console that's lower than in the DB12 keep the interior from feeling confining, however. The long hood falls away from view, which can be somewhat disconcerting when parking in close quarters, but there is a dedicated hard button to instantly summon the parking cameras (with a choice of views), which is helpful. view interior Photos Aston Martin Aston has retained physical switchgear in the Vanquish, and that's part of what makes this car so welcoming to the driver. Its most future-techy aspect is the standard integration of Apple CarPlay Ultra. The system takes over not just the central touchscreen but the instrumentation display as well. And while you don't have to hop out of it to operate climate controls or other screen-based vehicle systems, it was otherwise unimpressive. We found the system to be glitchy, Siri to be obtuse, and the phone-based navigation to be useless when we were out of cell range. We ended up quitting out of it in favor of the native navigation. Really, the Vanquish Volante is about classicism, not the latest gadgetry. The beauty of long-hood-short-deck proportions, the sound and fury of a V-12 engine, and the experience of open-air driving—those are what's central to this car. These desirable elements make the Vanquish Volante the grandest of grand tourers, one that comes at an equally rarefied price: $489,700 (inclusive of destination and, ahem, gas-guzzler tax). The upcoming supercars are sure to be still more expensive, but while you can pay more for an Aston Martin, this grandest grand tourer strikes us as the ultimate Aston Martin. view exterior photos Aston Martin Specifications Specifications 2026 Aston Martin Vanquish Volante Vehicle Type: front-engine, rear-wheel-drive, 2-passenger, 2-door convertible PRICE Base: $489,700 ENGINE twin-turbocharged and intercooled DOHC 48-valve V-12, aluminum block and heads, port fuel injection Displacement: 318 in3, 5204 cm3 Power: 823 hp @ 6500 rpm Torque: 738 lb-ft @ 2500 rpm TRANSMISSION 8-speed automatic DIMENSIONS Wheelbase: 113.6 in Length: 192.5 in Width: 78.0 in Height: 51.0 in Trunk Volume: 7–8 ft3 Curb Weight (C/D est): 4500 lb PERFORMANCE (C/D EST) 60 mph: 3.3 sec 100 mph: 6.7 sec 1/4-Mile: 11.2 sec Top Speed: 214 mph EPA FUEL ECONOMY (C/D EST) Combined/City/Highway: 16/13/21 mpg Reviewed by Joe Lorio Deputy Editor, Reviews and Features Joe Lorio has been obsessed with cars since his Matchbox days, and he got his first subscription to Car and Driver at age 11.
