Aston Martin Vanquish 25: A Bespoke Tribute to Icon
A quarter of a century after its debut, Aston Martin today unveils the limited-edition Vanquish 25. This exclusive model celebrates three generations of the iconic British nameplate, and Q by Aston Martin has crafted it through its bespoke service.
The in-house design team and craftspeople at Q by Aston Martin bring unparalleled expertise to every bespoke and special commission, and the Vanquish 25 exemplifies this skill. The team drew inspiration from the original Vanquish detailing and launch specification of 2001, then added new handcrafting techniques and treatments to inject modern flair and style. The result gives the three iterations of this remarkably quick and engaging, range-topping creation a fresh new take.
Aston Martin will produce no more than 50 examples of the new Vanquish 25 for markets worldwide. Q by Aston Martin offers this special creation in either Coupe (25 examples) or Volante (25 examples) body styles, with 2+0 or 2+2 seating configurations.
On the outside, exclusive Q Skye Silver paintwork identifies the new Q by Aston Martin creation, alongside Q Commission metal foil detailing on the side sills and shield vanes, and bespoke Aston Martin script foil detailing. Aston Martin has also added a Q Commission exhaust finisher, stainless steel side strakes, unique 'Vanquish 25' badging, and a new subtle 'V' highlight on the 21-inch forged alloy wheels.
Inside, the Vanquish 25 features unique trim perforation patterns and trim splits, seatbacks embroidered with the exclusive 'Vanquish 25' logo, and laser-etched Aston Martin trim inlays. An eye-catching bright red start/stop button sits in the centre console, surrounded by bespoke rotary geometry, while black Alcantara covers the headlining. Buyers can choose from three interior trim colours: Onyx Black, Oxford Tan, or Phantom Grey.
These carefully crafted additions build on the compelling underpinnings of the latest-generation Vanquish, which became the most potent flagship in Aston Martin's 113-year history when it launched in 2024.
The Vanquish sits at the pinnacle of Aston Martin's fabled front-engined sports car range, showcasing exceptional in-house engineering ability. Its highlights include a world-class 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12 engine that produces an astonishing 835PS and 1000Nm of torque, a bespoke chassis with state-of-the-art dynamics technology, carbon fibre bodywork of epic proportions and presence, and an interior that sets the standard for modern automotive sports car luxury. With a top speed of 214mph and a 0- 62 mph time of 3.3 seconds, the Vanquish proves as ballistic as it is beautiful.
Aston Martin developed the emotional and aspirational template for today's 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12-powered halo model a quarter of a century ago, when the first Aston Martin to bear the now-established Vanquish name debuted at the 2001 Geneva Motor Show. In the years since, this nameplate has continued to represent a high-water mark for Aston Martin's series production ambitions.
Welcoming the unveiling of the new Vanquish 25, Vittorio Gabba, Head of Q at Aston Martin, said: “Anyone familiar with this iconic British brand knows the provenance of the name ‘Vanquish’ in our modern history.
“25 years on from the unveiling of the very first Vanquish, it is only right that we mark this nameplate’s contribution to our heritage. Vanquish 25 builds on the extraordinary achievements of the modern, third-generation Vanquish with a carefully curated package of exterior and interior features that subtly celebrate this important milestone in our history.”
The Vanquish 25 will make its global premiere at Monterey Car Week in California (10-16 August), with first deliveries arriving from Q4 2026.
