New aston martin vanquish review
Company Aston Martin Moscow began accepting orders for the
new generation Vanquish (2013). The previous generation supercar was revealed
to the world in 2008. The car is at the top of the line model Aston Martin.
Here crossed stylistic solutions such as waist elegant,
expressive bulge on the doors and LED "Blade" rear lights. All body
panels are made from carbon fiber, because it easily allows you to create any
shape, and has an ideal balance between strength and weight. By the way, the
weight of the renewed British supercar (1,739 kg) - the best figure among
direct competitors in the face of the Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano (1765 kg), Nissan
GT-R Premium Edition (1815 kg) and the Jaguar XKR-S 5.0 V8 SC Coupé (1828 kg).
Platform VH refreshed to 75% and includes power carboxylic
elements. Through the use of CFRP, and optimization of the body structure, the tensional
stiffness increased by more than 25%. Chief designer Marek Raykman Aston Martin
said: "The design of the new Vanquish bonded common thread with the
heritage and future of Aston Martin, and the use of carbon fiber relieve us of
any restrictions on the form of the details."
When viewed from behind the eye catches a new air duct (Aero
Duct) on the trunk lid. This solution prevents the lifting force on the rear
axle. "Carbon" nature of the new Vanquish discern in some components
of the unpainted carbon fiber - a front splitter, sill plates and along the rear
diffuser.
The interior became more spacious legroom, knee and shoulder
has increased by 37, 50 and 25 mm, respectively. Vanquish - is not only a sport
but also a practical car. Trunk became 60% more spacious than the DBS. 368
liters of luggage space volume make Vanquish leader in practicality among cars
class Gran Tourism. Landing formula can be selected - "2 + 2" or
"2 + 0" with additional storage compartments behind.
6-liter V12, mounted on the Vanquish, fundamentally
different from its predecessors. Firstly, it has a new block, the new head
timing control system, the fuel pump increased power big wing intake manifold
and combustion chamber is entirely recycled. All these measures have helped
improve the impact of the engine to 573 hp (from the previous 528 hp at 7000
rev / min) and torque increase to 620 Nm (577 to 5800 Nm @ rev / min). In
addition, the motor is located 19 mm below. This provided a weight reduction
center and improves manageability.
Due to the central location of the front-engine layout and Transaxle,
85% by weight of the supercar is concentrated within the wheelbase. On the
problem of engineers concerned to minimize the mass outside the base to reduce
the moment of inertia about the vertical axis. Restrain temper in check are
called carbon-ceramic Bemba brakes third generation, which were used to model
the One-77. Front mounted 398 mm diameter discs with 6-piston calipers and rear
- 360 mm discs and 4-piston calipers...
Aston Martin Vanquish was the first car with a traditional
"automatic" system and Launch Control, which optimizes the process of
starting the car. As a result, acceleration to "hundreds" takes just
4.1 seconds and a top speed of 295 km / h
It is clear that large amounts of Vanquish no one expects -
is, like any other model of Aston Martin, - good piece and implemented a
maximum of dozens, even hundreds of not (for example, in 2009 Russia had sold
