7-SPEED MANUAL & SPORTSHIFT III ASM

The V12 Vantage S transmissions are derived from Aston Martin’s racing programme to bring motorsport engineering and race-car capability to the road.

Sportshift III, a seven speed Automated Shift Manual (ASM) transaxle gearbox was specifically designed to tap the potency of V12 Vantage S, with advanced light-touch paddleshifts giving maximum driver control.

2017 also sees the return of a manual-shift transmission as an option, providing maximum engagement between driver, vehicle and road. It delivers the ultimate analogue experience in a digital world.

V12 Vantage S doesn’t just deliver power it's harnessed by the bespoke seven-speed Sportshift III automated manual transmission. This marriage of high performance engine and specifically engineered transmission is one derived from our GT race programme – proven through endurance race success. Lightning fast shifts are delivered with precision to ensure ultimate performance and control. The driver has even more control with optional Sport mode offering an instantaneous level of performance through rapid responsiveness.

Involvement

An Unmistakable
Presence  

Powerful athleticism. Perfect balance. Vantage is a true icon of contemporary design. Perhaps the greatest achievement is producing a car which looks as simple, pure and toned in Roadster format as it does as a Coupe. V12 Vantage S adds further visual intensity over the subtlety of other Vantage Roadsters, with carbon fibre detailing and impactful exterior graphics for the front grille and rear tailgate panel.

V12 Vantage S Roadster commands your full attention even before you drive.
