In-depth guide to the New Aston Martin Vantage Roadster
The 2025 Aston Martin Vantage Roadster arrives as the quintessential British sports car evolves into open-air excellence. Built on the technical foundation of the critically acclaimed 2024 Vantage Coupe, this convertible variant delivers the same class-leading performance while adding an entirely new dimension of sensory engagement. With 665 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque at your command, the Vantage Roadster transforms every drive into an event worth savoring.
Engineered from inception alongside its hardtop counterpart, the Roadster doesn't merely adapt the Coupe's architecture—it reimagines it. This parallel development approach yields a convertible without compromise, maintaining the razor-sharp handling and explosive acceleration that defines the Vantage name while adding the visceral thrill of open-air motoring. Your connection to the driving experience deepens as the unmistakable thunder of the V8 becomes an even more prominent companion on every journey.
Engineering Excellence
The Vantage Roadster's powertrain delivers performance figures that speak volumes: 0-60 mph in just 3.5 seconds and a top speed of 202 mph. These remarkable statistics stem from Aston Martin's 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8, which produces 155 hp and 85 lb-ft more torque than its predecessor. Eight precision-engineered gears channel this formidable power through an electronically controlled limited-slip differential to the rear wheels.
The Roadster's structure demonstrates the brand's commitment to dynamic excellence. Despite the addition of a fully automatic convertible roof, total weight increase remains a mere 60 kg compared to the Coupe—a class-leading achievement. Strategic reinforcements and weight-optimized shear panels enhance structural rigidity, ensuring the Roadster maintains the Coupe's renowned handling characteristics.
Technology That Enhances
You gain access to industry-leading Active Vehicle Dynamics that transform the Roadster based on road conditions and your driving style. The system's six-axis sensors create a detailed behavioral profile of the car in real-time, allowing the Electronic Stability Program to optimize performance continuously. For enthusiasts looking to fine-tune their experience, the Advanced Traction Control system offers eight distinct settings, giving you precise control over electronic intervention.
Bilstein DTX adaptive dampers with Roadster-specific tuning work in harmony with race-inspired double wishbone front and multi-link rear suspension. This sophisticated setup delivers the precision, balance, and confidence that define truly exceptional driver's cars. Carbon ceramic brakes measuring 410mm at the front provide relentless stopping power, while bespoke Michelin Pilot Sport S 5 tires offer exceptional grip in all conditions.
Convertible Innovation
The Vantage Roadster features the fastest fully automatic deployable roof on the market today. The innovative Z-fold configuration operates in just 6.8 seconds at speeds up to 31 mph, allowing you to transition between coupe-like refinement and open-air exhilaration without disrupting your journey. Eight levels of roof insulation ensure cabin acoustics remain comparable to the Coupe when the top is up.
Your security in all driving scenarios comes from the aluminum Roll-Over and Protection System (ROPS), engineered using an advanced "Castrusion" process that combines the strengths of casting and extrusion. This innovative approach creates a system that provides exceptional protection while maintaining the Roadster's dynamic balance and visual appeal.
Design That Captivates
The Vantage Roadster maintains the Coupe's dramatic proportions whether the roof is raised or lowered. The steeply raked windscreen flows into a high waistline, creating a thoroughbred sports car profile that appears as though it was never designed to include a roof. This visual harmony extends to the seamless roof stowage system, which eliminates the need for a bulky tonneau cover.
Your opportunity for personalization comes through an expanded palette of exterior finishes, including three new paint options: Iridescent Sapphire, Satin Iridescent Sapphire, and Bronze Flare. The convertible roof offers four distinct color choices, while 21 complementary paint liveries allow for further customization. Four 21-inch wheel designs and seven brake caliper colors complete the exterior options, ensuring your Vantage Roadster reflects your personal style.
The Vantage Roadster arrives in the second quarter of 2025, joining an exceptional lineup that includes the Vantage Coupe, DB12, DB12 Volante, Vanquish, DBX707, and the forthcoming Valhalla supercar. Experience the Vantage Roadster's ideal combination of thrilling performance and open-air luxury at Aston Martin Montreal.
