Our most recent review of the 2026 Aston Martin Vanquish resulted in a score of 7.5 out of 10 for that particular example.
Carsguide Contributing Journalist Stephen Ottley had this to say at the time: The definition of luxury is having something you want, rather than something you need. And the Vanquish is definitely something you don’t need, but will desperately want once you’ve experienced it. It’s opulence on wheels, the kind of car you buy mostly because you can. Because owning a V8-powered Aston Martin wouldn’t cut it in your circle of friends. Or because you just want the very best things in life, cost be damned.

This is what Stephen Ottley liked most about this particular version of the Aston Martin Vanquish: Imposing presence, Immense power, Plush interior
The Aston Martin Vanquish is available in 77 standard colours. Obviously that means there are too many to list here, with 18 different black and grey hues alone. The company also offers an array of purples, blues, reds, oranges and, of course, green - Aston Martin's trademark colour.
The Aston Martin Vanquish is powered by a 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12 engine. That makes it the last V12-powered model in the Aston Martin range, with the majority now powered by the AMG-sourced twin-turbo V8.
Aston Martin claims the Vanquish has a 0-100km/h time of just 3.3 seconds and a top speed of 345km/h, thanks to its twin-turbo V12 engine.
The interior design of the Aston Martin Vanquish is plush and pampering. Every surface is trimmed in a high-quality material, including leathers, metal and wood.
Standard equipment for the Aston Martin Vanquish includes 21-inch alloy wheels, carbon ceramic brakes, 16-way adjustable sports seats, keyless ignition, a 10.2-inch touchscreen multimedia display, Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth, wireless phone charging and a 1170-watt 15-speaker Bowers & Wilkins sound system.
The boot volume is just 248 litres in the Aston Martin Vanquish, which is surprisingly small for such a large grand tourer.
The Aston Martin Vanquish, despite being nearly 5.0m long, is a two-seat coupe.
The combination of a thirsty V12 engine (13.7L/100km) and an 82-litre fuel tank means the Aston Martin Vanquish has a driving range of less than 600km.
