Unlike its predecessor with a dated Mercedes-based system, the new Vantage features a bespoke 10.25-inch touchscreen with advanced software offering 3D mapping, wireless smartphone mirroring, and other advanced features. Physical switchgear remains for essential controls, complementing the new digital instrument cluster and improved interior quality.

The highlight of the updates is the substantial power increase from the 4.0-liter, twin-turbo V8 engine sourced from Mercedes-AMG. Output is now a formidable 665hp and 800Nm, propelling the Vantage to a 0-100kph time of just 3.4 seconds and a top speed of 325kph.
