You can now see that the transplant was successful, if largely on the review of the V-8 Vantage front structure. Yet did the Aston Martin to a nearly perfect 51/49-percent from front to rear weight distribution to achieve. The extra mass of the motor, another 200 pounds or so, partly offset by carbon-ceramic brakes and lighter wheels and lighter seats and rear quarter panels. The total weight of the V-12 Vantage, is about 3700 pounds, only about 100 pounds more than the V-8 Vantage.
The extra weight is easily neutralized by the V-12 to 510 hp and 420 Nm torque available at 6500 rpm and 5750 rpm, respectively. The engine is tuned the same as in the larger DBS and propel this relatively small compartment in a different league. We cycled a DBS to 60 km / h in 4.3 seconds, a time publish the same with that of the V-8 Vantage. Aston claims the sprint from 0 km / h in 4.2 seconds in 62 of the V-12 Vantage takes, so we expect them the fastest Aston ever we were there and test the fastest, the One-77 comes on the market . The maximum speed is 190 kmh located from 180 to V-8. But what really makes the difference lies in the incredible flexibility and responsiveness of the engine.
