Aston Martin Vantage full in-depth review and specs, on track and road | Autocar

With 656bhp rather than the 503bhp of its predecessor, the latest Aston Martin Vantage has moved on to a new performance plane.

It was a serious sports car before but the comprehensive overhaul has, as with the DB12 we were so impressed by recently, significantly shifted its capabilities. Its price too: this is a £165,000 before options.

Along with 656bhp at 6000rpm it makes 590lb ft at 2000-5000rpm. It drives the rear wheels through an eight-speed automatic gearbox and weighs (dry) 1605kg.

Performance is strong, with a 0-62mph time of 3.4sec and a top speed of 202mph. It'll return 23.3mpg and emits 274g/km of CO2.

Join Matt Prior as he gives it a full review on road and track and has a look under the skin.
