2026 Aston Martin Vanquish 25
By Lorenzo Bianchi July 22, 2026
Aston Martin will build only 50 Vanquish 25 models, split equally between Coupe and Volante body styles.
The anniversary edition receives exclusive exterior detailing and bespoke interior finishes inspired by the original 2001 Vanquish.
Power comes from the existing 835 PS twin turbocharged 5.2 litre V12 with 1,000 Nm of torque.
Twenty-five years after the original Vanquish made its public debut, Aston Martin is marking the occasion with a special edition that looks back without trying to recreate the past. The 2026 Aston Martin Vanquish 25 takes the latest generation flagship and layers it with details drawn from the original 2001 model, all assembled through the company's bespoke Q by Aston Martin division.
Production will remain highly exclusive. Just 50 examples are planned worldwide, split evenly between 25 Coupes and 25 Volantes, with buyers able to choose either a 2+0 or 2+2 seating configuration.
Familiar Shape With Anniversary Details
Nothing about the Vanquish 25 is intended to overpower the original design. Instead, Aston Martin has concentrated on subtle visual touches that distinguish the anniversary model.
Every example wears exclusive Q Skye Silver paint paired with bespoke metal foil detailing on the side sills and shield vanes. Unique Aston Martin script graphics, stainless steel side strakes, a dedicated exhaust finisher, and discreet Vanquish 25 badging further separate the car from the standard model. Even the 21-inch forged wheels receive a subtle "V" highlight developed specifically for the edition.
The approach feels restrained. Unless parked beside a regular Vanquish, many of the differences only become obvious when viewed up close.
A Cabin Built Around Craftsmanship
Inside, the changes continue with the same level of attention.
The seats feature exclusive Vanquish 25 embroidery, while new perforation patterns and laser-etched trim inlays appear throughout the cabin. A bright red start-stop button sits prominently within a bespoke rotary control layout, contrasting with a black Alcantara headliner. Buyers can choose from Onyx Black, Oxford Tan, or Phantom Grey interior themes, each developed specifically for the anniversary edition.
Rather than redesigning the interior, Aston Martin has focused on materials and finishing techniques that acknowledge the original Vanquish while fitting naturally into the latest generation car.
The Flagship Performance Stays Intact
Mechanically, the 2026 Aston Martin Vanquish 25 remains unchanged.
Its 5.2 litre twin turbocharged V12 develops 835 PS and 1,000 Nm, continuing to power Aston Martin's flagship front-engine sports car. The package also includes the bespoke chassis, carbon fibre bodywork, and performance technologies introduced with the latest Vanquish. Performance remains equally impressive, with 0–62 mph in 3.3 seconds and a 214 mph top speed.
That decision reflects the purpose of the project. The Vanquish already represents the most powerful front-engine production model in Aston Martin's history, leaving little need for mechanical revisions.
Celebrating A Quarter Century Of Vanquish
The 2026 Aston Martin Vanquish 25 is intended as a tribute rather than a replacement. Inspiration comes directly from the launch specification of the original 2001 Vanquish, interpreted through contemporary craftsmanship and Q by Aston Martin's bespoke capabilities. The model will make its public debut during Monterey Car Week in August 2026, with customer deliveries scheduled to begin in the fourth quarter of the year.
