ASTON MARTIN is celebrating its return to Formula 1 with a special Vantage model. The legendary British brand promises that the F1 Edition is the production version of the two-seater most heavily geared towards the racetrack to date.
Based on the new official safety car for the global racing series, the newcomer benefits from extensive work on the chassis and aerodynamics as well as an optimized drive train.
The 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine has been increased by 25 hp to 535 hp – and the eight-speed automatic transmission has also been refined.
Offered as a coupe or roadster, this gives 0-62 mph in 3.6 or 3.7 seconds and top speeds of 195 and 190 mph, respectively. Among the paint job options, all of which have dark gray graphics, is a Racing Green color that mimics the Grand Prix machine.

Inside, buyers will find new black leather and gray Alcantara upholstery, which is complemented by light green, black, gray or red contrasting stripes and seams.

The rear-wheel drive Vantage F1 is available now in May and starts at £ 142,000. Deliveries are scheduled to begin in May.
Boss Tobias Moers said: “Performance is at the heart of every Aston Martin, but if it has an F1 badge it has to be a really exceptional car.
“This is a benefit that appeals to the most demanding drivers and represents an exciting moment in our history.”
