The 2024 Aston Martin Vanquish will carry the basic design language of its super expensive 7 figures worth siblings, the forthcoming Valhalla and Valkyrie hypercars. Though it won’t be limited to just very few in the production or cost you millions of dollars. It will feature a new hybrid V-6 powertrain that the company will be creating in-house and plans to aggrandize throughout its portfolio in the coming years.
With its all-new engine which will be now located behind the driver, the car would be able to produce an estimated power output of up to 700 horsepower, which then will directly compete with the cars that come in the similar class and segment such as the Ferrari F8 Tributo and McLaren 720S.
Engine, Transmission, and Performance
Aston Martin has confirmed that it will no longer be bolting an AMG-sourced engine into the 2024 Aston Martin Vanquish. Instead, the British automaker is developing its own powerplant. While many specifics are still being kept under wraps, we do know that it’ll be a new hybrid 3.0-liter V-6 that could develop up to 700 horsepower. While this is the same engine that will power the upcoming Valhalla and Valkyrie hypercars, it will be a less extreme (read: less powerful) example in the Vanquish.
While those limited-production models are being co-developed with Red Bull Racing, Aston said it’s developing the Vanquish alone. The company has also confirmed that the Vanquish will feature a bonded-aluminum spaceframe instead of the carbon-fiber tub that will be used on the company’s hypercars. The lack of aggressive aerodynamic technology that adorned the concept suggests this Aston will be more of a grand tourer than its much more expensive track-focused siblings.
Fuel Economy and Real-World MPG
Neither the EPA nor Aston Martin has said how fuel-efficient the 2024 Aston Martin Vanquish will be in the city or on the highway. When those estimates are announced, and when we have the chance to get behind the wheel, we will test it on our 200-mile highway fuel-economy route to evaluate its real-world mpg.

Interior, Comfort, and Cargo
The 2024 Aston Martin Vanquish nameplate will be entering new territory with the switch to a mid-engine layout. That means everything we’ve previously known about its interior has gone out the window, and our expectations for its new digs are solely based on speculation. We have heard that its cabin will be roomier than Aston’s other upcoming mid-engine hypercars.
Apart from the additional passenger space, it’s hard to predict how the company will choose to outfit the Vanquish’s cabin. There will no doubt be a vast amount of customization options, upscale materials, and racy elements throughout. If there’s one thing we can say for sure, it’s that the next-generation Vanquish will go without the tiny back seat that was present on its predecessor.
Infotainment and Connectivity
We can only speculate about the infotainment system that might reside inside the Vanquish. While it could be similar to the setup found on the Vantage sports car, which boasts an 8.0-touchscreen that’s primarily controlled with a rotary knob on the center console, we think the interface might be more advanced by the time the Vanquish goes on sale. If the Valhalla’s infotainment system—or lack thereof—is any indication, Aston might start to focus more on the driving experience and less on built-in touchscreens and mainstream connectivity features.
Safety and Driver-Assistance Features
Aston currently offers a handful of driver-assistance technologies on some of its models, such as the Vantage sports car. That suggests the Vanquish could be available with safety features that include a 360-degree camera system and blind-spot monitoring.
