Introducing the 2025 Aston Martin Vantage Roadster—a car that lets you feel the wind in your hair and the power under your right foot, all while making your neighbor’s convertible look like a child’s toy. This open-top marvel boasts a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, delivering a hearty 656 horsepower (665PS) and 590 lb-ft (800Nm) of torque. That’s enough muscle to propel you from 0 to 60 mph in a brisk 3.5 seconds, should you be running late for a very important date.

Aston Martin’s engineers have managed to keep the weight gain to a mere 60 kg compared to the coupe, ensuring that your indulgence in open-air driving doesn’t come at the cost of performance. The pièce de résistance is the ‘Z-fold’ roof, which can elegantly disappear or reappear in just 6.8 seconds, even while cruising at speeds up to 31 mph (50 km/h). This makes it the fastest-operating convertible roof on the market, perfect for those who can’t decide between sun and shade.
The Vantage Roadster shares its top speed of 202 mph with its hardtop sibling, ensuring that your hairdo can be ruined just as quickly, regardless of your roof preference. The car’s structure and suspension have been meticulously tweaked to account for the slight shift in weight distribution, so you can take corners with the confidence of a seasoned race car driver—or at least look like one.
Inside, you’ll find a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, because even when you’re driving a masterpiece, you still need to know what’s playing on the radio. The standard 11-speaker audio system is impressive, but for those who believe that more is more, an optional Bowers & Wilkins system is available to ensure your music sounds as good as your engine’s roar.

Customization options abound, with new paint colors like Iridescent Sapphire and Bronze Flare, and roof hues including Black, Red, Blue, or a fetching Black and Silver combo. Through the ‘Q by Aston Martin’ personalization service, you can make your Vantage Roadster as unique as your fingerprint—or your penchant for bespoke luxury.
Now, for the detail that might make your wallet sweat: the price. While official figures for the 2025 model are yet to be confirmed, it’s expected to start at around £180,000 in the UK. In Singapore, the 2024 model was anticipated to be priced at approximately SGD 337,940, so you might want to start counting your pennies—or rather, your gold bars.
In summary, the 2025 Aston Martin Vantage Roadster is a harmonious blend of power, elegance, and open-air exhilaration. It’s the perfect vehicle for those who demand performance without compromising on style, and who enjoy turning heads almost as much as they enjoy the thrill of the drive.
