What is the Aston Martin Vanquish?
The Vanquish is a front-engined grand tourer with a two-door body and a V12 at its heart. It sits among Aston Martin’s flagship sports cars, pairing a focus on long-distance travel with the marque’s sporting character. Carbon-fibre body panels and carefully finished interiors have featured in its story across distinct generations.
The name has appeared in three generations, with a gap between the first and second.
Vanquish generations
The first generation ran from 2002 to 2007. The second followed from 2012 to 2018 and carried the internal code AM310. It used carbon-fibre body panels and continued the car’s grand touring role. The third generation began in 2024, bringing the Vanquish name back as a modern flagship.
