Aston Martin Unveils the Vanquish 25 Anniversary Edition
Aston Martin has unveiled the Vanquish 25, a limited-edition grand tourer created to mark 25 years since the original Vanquish’s debut. Developed through the brand’s bespoke Q by Aston Martin personalization division, the anniversary model pays tribute to the iconic 2001 flagship while combining handcrafted luxury with modern V12 performance.
Production is limited to just 50 examples worldwide, with 25 Coupes and 25 Volantes available. Rather than transforming the Vanquish into a track-focused special, Aston Martin has chosen to celebrate the model’s grand touring heritage through exclusive styling, premium craftsmanship, and subtle design enhancements.
Bespoke Design Inspired by the Original Vanquish
Every Vanquish 25 is finished in an exclusive Q Skye Silver paint, a color created specifically for the anniversary edition. Additionally, metal foil detailing along the side sills and shield vanes adds visual depth, while bespoke stainless steel side strakes and a unique Q Commission exhaust finisher distinguish the rear of the car.
The exclusive model also rides on specially designed 21-inch forged alloy wheels featuring a diamond-turned V motif that reinforces the anniversary theme.
Inside, Aston Martin continues the heritage-inspired approach with a cabin trimmed in Semi-Aniline leather and Alcantara. Diamond-quilted upholstery references the original 2001 Vanquish, while laser-etched trim pieces blend classic design with modern craftsmanship. Furthermore, a satin silver rotary start-stop button with a vibrant red center serves as a unique centerpiece on the center console.
Buyers can personalize the interior with three color combinations: Onyx Black, Oxford Tan, or Phantom Grey. Meanwhile, discreet embroidered anniversary branding highlights the vehicle’s limited-production status.
Modern V12 Performance Meets Timeless Grand Touring
Although the design celebrates the past, the Vanquish 25 delivers the latest generation of Aston Martin performance. Under the hood sits a 5.2-liter twin-turbocharged V12 engine producing 823 horsepower and 738 lb-ft of torque.
As a result, the rear-wheel-drive grand tourer accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in just 3.3 seconds before reaching a top speed of 214 mph. The combination of immense power and refined engineering reinforces the Vanquish’s reputation as one of the brand’s flagship performance models.
Aston Martin will publicly unveil the Vanquish 25 during Monterey Car Week in California this August. Customer deliveries are expected to begin in the fourth quarter of the year, with each of the 50 examples destined for a carefully selected group of buyers.
By blending bespoke craftsmanship, exclusive design, and high-performance engineering, the Vanquish 25 celebrates one of Aston Martin’s most recognizable nameplates while reaffirming the enduring appeal of the V12-powered grand tourer in an increasingly electrified automotive landscape.
