On May 20, 2016, the Vanquish Zagato Concept was presented to the public at the Concorso d'Eleganza Villa d'Este on Lake Como . It continues the 50-year collaboration between Aston Martin and the Italian design studio Zagato, which began in 1960 with the DB4 GT Zagato .

On June 21, 2016, Aston Martin announced that it would produce the Vanquish Zagato in a small series of 99 copies. The first vehicles were delivered in early 2017.

At the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance 2016, a roadster variant made its debut with the Vanquish Zagato Volante . As with the coupé, 99 vehicles were produced in a small series and delivered from the beginning of 2017.

In August 2017, the manufacturer announced the last variant of the Zagato series. This is a shooting brake limited to 99 copies .

Vehicle characteristics

The Vanquish Zagato is based on the Vanquish, which has been built since 2012 . The body is still made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic , but has been redesigned. For example, the radiator grille was enlarged, a retractable rear spoiler installed and, in the case of the Coupé, two elevations (called "Double Bubbles" by Zagato) were embedded in the roof. In addition, design elements from the One-77 and DB11 models were used . In the interior there is a leather upholstery with “Z” quilting and “Z” logos on various interior parts. The Coupé accelerates from 0 to 100 km / h in 3.5 seconds, the Roadster needs 0.2 seconds more.
