Aston Martin recently introduced the all-new 2025 Vantage model, which features multiple updates in performance and design. They also launched a race-oriented GT3 version. Now, Aston Martin has unveiled another racing variant competing in the GT4 category with some exclusive modifications.
Main Features of the New Supercar
The GT4 regulations require racing cars to be linked with road-legal vehicles. Aston Martin confirmed that the new Vantage GT4 shares 80% of its components with the original model, including the aluminum chassis, engine, transmission, and most external panels. The car boasts a large rear wing and air vents on the hood to improve airflow, aimed at enhancing downforce and stability at high speeds.
The new supercar comes with 18-inch wheels, smaller than the 21-inch wheels used in the road-legal Vantage. Nonetheless, the car still appears elegant and attractive with the smaller wheels, which add a touch of aggression and agility.
The Vantage GT4 continues to utilize the 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine, but with specific modifications to comply with racing regulations. The engine is paired with a modified 8-speed automatic transmission, effectively turning it into a manual 6-speed setup.
New Track-Ready Interior
Undoubtedly, the most significant modification can be seen in the interior, which has been completely revamped to reflect the racing nature of the vehicle, eliminating the traditional center console and adding a roll cage, fire suppression system, and other safety features.
Aston Martin plans to build over 40 units of the Vantage GT4 this year, with orders already being accepted.
