  • Aston Martin V8 Vantage
British engineering made its way into India with the launch of the Aston Martin V8 Vantage, a two-seater coupe, in 2011. The much-awaited car was greeted with excitement and enthusiasm and rightly so. Aston Martin is known for producing world-class luxury cars that have been featured in several motion picture blockbusters, most notably the Bond films. It’s no wonder then that the Vantage caused a ripple of excitement among the rich, all eager to get a piece of this gorgeous coupe. While similar in appearance to the DB9, it’s a tad cheaper and packs more punch. It sports a low body which gives it the look of a sports car though the interior feels like a sedan. A new low front air dam and a bumper set made of carbon fiber lend it an aggressive look while also providing a higher inflow of air. The cabin is superbly styled and sports all the luxury you’d hope to find in a coupe of its class.

Aston Martin V8 VantageDesign

The V8 Vantage speaks of elegance and sportiness, combined in the fine way Aston Martin is noted for. The low ground clearance makes it appear sporty while the inside looks and feels like a sedan. The driving experience is further enhanced if you drive in sport mode, giving off a low rumble that’s evidence of the power lying beneath. It’s said to have a better driving dynamic than others in its class while the design elements lower the coefficient of drag and lift to increase high speed stability.

The long hood, lower front bumper and sculpted race derived side sills serve to enhance its gorgeous looks and performance. The Vantage’s main halogen projector headlamps and dipped HID lamps along with LED rear tail lamps add to its aggressive appearance.
