In this thrilling episode, the team travels to Spain for the launch of the Aston Martin Vantage, but alas, Mark is back in the US saving Red Lobster. They introduce James, an engineer who spills the beans on the car's impressive specs. With 656 horsepower, 590 lb-ft of torque, and a 0-60 time in the mid 3s, this updated Vantage is a beast on the road. The wider body, double wishbone suspension, and massive brakes make it a force to be reckoned with. And let's not forget the 4L twin-turbo AMG engine that roars without any fake noise - music to any car enthusiast's ears.
Inside, the Vantage shines with improved interior space, premium touch points, and endless customization options. The team dives deep into the engineering details, discussing the balance between luxury and performance in this new generation Aston Martin. They marvel at the car's body control, flat cornering, and exceptional ride quality achieved through cutting-edge technologies. The car's drivetrain, featuring a 4L twin-turbo V8 engine and ZF 8-speed gearbox, delivers power and precision on the road. The new electronic differential and shortened final drive ratio enhance performance, ensuring a thrilling driving experience.
As they hit the track with the Vantage, equipped with carbon ceramic brakes and track traction control mode, the team experiences the full might of the 650hp 4L V8 engine. The ZF 8-speed gearbox impresses with its seamless shifts, complementing the engine's ferocity. While the steering lacks a bit of feel, the car's agility and power are undeniable. The electronic differential proves its worth, aiding in cornering without overshadowing the driver's control. With the Aston Martin Vantage, it's clear that this new generation has the funding and resources to compete without compromise, making it a true contender in the world of high-performance sports cars.
