Aston Martin Vanquish - all the most interesting about the car for 25 million rubles

Aston Martin Vanquish - this is the flagship sports car, belonging to the class of Gran Turismo. It was created long ago, in 2001, and this car became a full-fledged successor to the Virage model. In 2007 this machine was replaced with DBS, but when its production was completed, they decided to return the name Vanquish.

First generation

The very first Aston Martin Vanquish was released from 2001 until 2005. Of the striking features - a rigid chassis design (which was achieved by using a composite of aluminum and carbon). Also, the attention of connoisseurs could not help attracting a 6-liter V12 powerplant to 48 (!) Valves. Its power is 460 "horses".

In motion, this engine is driven by a 6-diaphazone electrohydraulic transmission. It is also interesting that the engineers decided to equip the standard model with 355mm brake discs (of course, ventilated), which have four piston calipers in front. In addition, ABS (electronic brake force distribution is also available).

Interestingly, this model was a James Bond machine. He went on it in the film "Die, but not now."

Vanquish S

The debut of this car took place in 2004. This Aston Martin Vanquish boasted a much more powerful powerplant and improved aerodynamic characteristics. Plus, the developers have made some changes in the design of the cabin and finalized the suspension.

The number of produced horsepower was increased to 520. By the way, changes affected not only the motor, but also its appearance. The developers made a new splitter and finalized the shape of the nose. It was also possible to minimize drag. Wheels became larger diameter - this also became a slight change.

For all time the company produced a little less than 1100 such machines. The release was decided to end with a version such as Aston Martin Vanquish S Ultimate Edition. There are only fifty such versions in the world. These models differ painted in a body full of black color, updated interior and minor technical changes.

The maximum that Aston Martin Vanquish can produce is 321 km / h. And this model remained the fastest and fastest - of all the serial machines produced by the company. And she kept this record until 2013 - until the moment when another car came out that became known as V12 Vantage S.

The second generation

In 2012, another car was released, which became a full-fledged replacement for the first generation of Aston Martin v12 Vanquish. The novelty was based on the 4th generation of the VH platform. It was created using an abundant amount of aluminum and special carbon fiber - all in order to make the body more durable and less heavy.

Under the hood, it was decided to install a 5.9-liter V12 engine. Its power was 550 horsepower. In the exterior of the model, the company's trademark features are clearly traced. For example, the front lights look like an old Virage model. And the back was decided to stylize under One 77. In some lines, one can trace the similarity to DB9. But in other respects the exterior turned out to be quite original.

We can not say a few words about the interior of this car. It turned out magnificent - expensive, luxurious, but strict - nothing superfluous. There are similarities with the exclusive, mentioned above One-77. The interior of this model is trimmed with high-quality leather and Alcantara - and manually. On the center console you can see a 6.5-inch color LCD-display (this is an audio and multimedia system). By the way, the music in the car is very good - in fact there are 13 powerful speakers and a 1000-watt stereo system inside.

One of the main tasks of the developers was to reduce the amount of fuel consumed to a minimum. In principle, the results are - 20-22 liters per 100 kilometers around the city, and a little more than ten - on the highway. However, economics is unlikely to be a factor that will excite a person who has allowed himself to buy a car for 25 million rubles.

Characteristics of Aston Martin Vanquish

And finally I would like to talk about the performance of new cars of this company. The improved version, published in 2015, received the reputation of the most powerful and fastest machine among the entire line. Images of Aston Martin Vanquish v12 2015 Cabrio are provided above, and even from the photos you can understand that this is really that car that is worthy of attention. 568-hp engine, 8-speed automatic transmission Touchtronic 3, acceleration to a hundred - in 3.6 seconds, and a maximum of almost 330 kilometers per hour. Not surprisingly, the cost of this car is more than 300 000 dollars. At the current rate, this is more than 23,000,000 rubles. However, true connoisseurs of speed, comfort, style and luxury will not skimp on buying this car. Because he really is worth that kind of money.
