2022 Aston Martin V12 Vantage Review: £265k, 700bhp, 200mph Supercar Tested | Top Gear
This is the new Aston V12 Vantage - the twin-turbo V12 from the contemporary DB11 and DBS Superleggera stuffed into the comparatively small Vantage. Usually, a much more compact, lighter biturbo V8 sits in that nose.
This isn’t a new idea though; AM has previous when it comes to V12s in Vantages - the original appeared in 2009, albeit with a touch more subtlety in the bodywork/aerodynamics department. In this iteration, you’re looking at just under 700bhp, 550lb ft of torque and 385bhp per tonne - the latter a little down because V12s are well-known fatties. Still, a Vantage that does 0-62mph in the mid-threes and the double-tonne top end is not to be sniffed at.
Impressive performance figures, but does this fussier new version do the V12 Vantage formula justice? Allow Top Gear Magazine’s Jack Rix to give you a history lesson on small twelve-cylinder Astons, and see if the latest stacks up against its predecessors...
