The 2026 Vantage Roadster maintains the coupe's squared-off muscularity and wide haunches while integrating a sleek Z-fold soft top that disappears smoothly behind the seats. This fast-acting roof system, operating at speeds up to 50 km/h, offers both visual elegance and practical agility. Unlike typical convertibles with bulky rear profiles, the Vantage remains sculpted and tight, thanks to engineering that started at the chassis level. Aston Martin bolstered the underbody and reinforced specific mounting points rather than overloading the structure, resulting in a torsionally stiff car with minimal weight gain, just 60 kg over the coupe. The result? A silhouette that’s lean, mean, and every bit as striking with the top down.

Quite the opposite. Sharing its heart with the coupe, the Vantage Roadster is powered by a twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 delivering 656 hp and 800 Nm of torque, propelling it from 0 to 96 km/h in just 3.5 seconds. Paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission and rear-wheel drive, the roadster holds a nearly perfect weight balance of 49:51. Adaptive dampers and a stiffer subframe ensure agile cornering, while five dynamic driving modes and nine traction settings let drivers tune their experience, whether they're carving mountain passes or sliding in controlled drifts. The only thing you lose is the roof, everything else, from power to poise, stays exhilaratingly intact.
