A Aston Martin just confirmed the return of the V12 Vantage in 2022, through a small teaser where we can even hear these twelve cylinders «screaming».
The technical details surrounding this version are still in the secret of the gods, but from a sound point of view, this little video has already left us with «mouthwatering».
Hoarse, full and almost deafening. The “rumble” of this 12 twin-turbo cylinders of 5.2 l, which is already present in the V12 Speedster, no DB11 e no DBS Superleggera, anticipates the most muscular version of this model ever, which will hit the market with the sights on the Porsche 911 Turbo S.
TO NOT LOSE: Aston Martin DBX (550 hp). The world’s most stylish sports SUV?
A test prototype of the Aston Martin V12 Vantage has already been “hunted” outside the Nürburgring.
Gaydon’s brand did not reveal the specifications of this model, but the final power should not be far from the 700 hp and 753 Nm that this engine achieves in the V12 Speedster, which fulfills the sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.5s and reaches a maximum (limited) speed of 300 km/h.
Renovations in terms of the infotainment system and improvements to the chassis are also expected, for what will be a kind of «swan song» for Vantage, which in 2025 will give rise to an electric model.
But while that doesn’t happen, the best thing is to hear this V12 «screaming». And preferably very loud!
