Aston Martin Vantage 2012

The Vantage was presented to the public for the first time at Auto Show Geneva 2005 as a 2006 model. It is the sportiest model of this prestigious British brand. One of its main mechanical characteristics was the use of the VH platform using extruded aluminum parts which are glued on aluminum panels.

Speaking of family, Aston Martin Vantage 2012 is available in multiple configurations. First there is the coupe and convertible V8 engine with 420 horsepower. If this power does not satisfy you, there is the version with 510 horsepower V12 engine. Last year, we introduced the N420 model to celebrate the participation of Aston Martin Vantage 2012 in the 24 Hours of Nürburgring. Then, just recently, we added versions S Coupe and Cabriolet S. The Vantage is the sportiest model of this brand. It is the shortest and the one with the smallest wheelbase of all Aston Martin models. These relatively small size adds to its agility, its performance and its handling.

Aston Martin Vantage 2012 have a specific target

Although their aluminum platform is similar to regular model coupe and roadster models S experience multiple enhancements to improve their driving behavior and performance. Under the hood is a more powerful version of the 4.7-liter V8 engine. This engine has an intake system with adjustable air, a mapping of more aggressive ignition and the ability to use gasoline octane higher. This gives a power of 430 horsepower, 10 more than the version N420. This allows cavalry from 0-100 km / h in 4.7 seconds.

Always in terms of mechanics, several improvements were made to the model S. The exhaust system is more efficient, the brakes are more powerful while the lateral stability system is more sophisticated. In addition, this model is the first Aston Martin Vantage 2012 to offer assistance system starting side. Of course, the designers have made some changes to the interior and exterior presentation for the S Coupe and Roadster S can be differentiated from other models.

And V12? Aston Martin Vantage 2012

Vantage is not only the smallest model in Aston Martin Vantage 2012, it can also boast of being the sports car world smaller size to accommodate a V12 engine (that of DBS) under the hood. Needless to say, the space is more than minimal insert an engine of this size. To do this, engineers had to modify the lubrication system and cooling while using a generator of smallest dimension.

With the power / weight ratio favoring Vantage V12 compared to the DBS, its acceleration is faster. In addition, the V12 has the effect of boosting the performance of this car. The high torque of this engine provides thrills. By cons, there is always a little something that irritates use. Thus the pedal does not encourage heel-toe, which is a shame because the gearbox is a manual transmission from Graziano, an Italian supplier.
