2020 Aston Martin Vantage AMR

Renowned for delivering one of the most exhilarating driving experiences currently on the market, the Aston Martin Vantage has been given an extra dose of excitement with the addition of a third pedal and manual transmission. The result? Vantage AMR.

Launched today on the penultimate round of the FIA World Endurance Championship Super Season - a world where Aston Martin Racing competes with the Vantage GTE - Vantage AMR fulfils Aston Martin's promise to deliver a product with the involvement and driver engagement that only a manual can offer.

The heart of Vantage AMR remains Aston Martin's potent new alloy, 4-litre twin-turbo V8 engine. Set low and as far back in the chassis as possible for optimal centre-of-gravity and near perfect 50:50 weight distribution, this high performance, high efficiency engine develops 510PS at 6000rpm and 625Nm from 2000-5000rpm, propelling Aston Martin Vantage AMR from 0-60mph in 3.9 seconds and 0-62mph in 4.0 seconds. As with the existing Vantage model, top speed is met at 195 mph. However, while performance is still at the forefront of all Vantage models, its delivery in the Vantage AMR is very different.

Aston Martin Vantage AMR is equipped with a motorsport-inspired 7-speed transmission developed by Graziano, featuring a 'dog-leg' first gear. Inside, the driver is presented with the opportunity to deliver each gear with both precision and finesse via a hand-stitched leather-clad gearstick. Second to seventh gears - those that will be used most frequently when on the move - are positioned in a traditional double H-pattern configuration. To ensure a more rewarding and engaging experience expected of a manual, Vantage AMR's transmission is mated to a limited-slip differential, tuned and calibrated by Aston Martin's leading dynamics team, headed by Chief Engineer Matt Becker, from the team's base at Silverstone Race Circuit.
