阿斯顿马丁近日发布了2015款V12 Vantage S敞篷版。该车与硬顶版共享相同内部结构,因此动力系统仍是那台5.9升V12引擎，最大565制动马力，峰值扭矩457磅-英尺（约合617牛米），但在1000转/分时就可达到376磅-英尺（约合508牛米）。搭配源自赛车的Sportshift III七速手自一体变速器。车辆0-60英里/小时（约合96公里）加速时间3.9秒，最高时速201英里（约合323公里），而硬顶版加速时间为3.7秒，最高时速205英里（约合330公里）。该车采用折叠织物软顶，重量比硬顶版增加80公斤至1745公斤。不过，相对于2012年生产的车型，重量减轻了20公斤。除了车顶不同外，敞篷车其余部分都与硬顶版一样。该车配备的可调底盘采用了Bilstein三阶段自适应阻尼，三阶段动态稳定控制系统和双阶段ABS，可提供包括正常，运动和赛道三种驾驶模式。该车标配碳陶瓷制动系统，选装件包括轻质10轮辐合金轮圈和Interior Carbon套装。
Aston Martin V12 Vantage S Roadster revealed
The V12 Vantage S Roadster shares its mechanical make-up with the coupé, so power comes from a mighty 565bhp 5.9-litre V12 engine. The new Aston can crack 0-60mph in 3.9sec and reach a top speed of 201mph, figures that are just shy of the 3.7sec and 205mph of the coupé.
The engine’s torque output is also prodigious, at 457lb ft, and 376lb ft is available from just 1000rpm. Drive is sent to the rear wheels through a race-derived Sportshift III seven-speed automated manual transmission that is supplied by Graziano.
The adoption of a retractable fabric roof has added 80kg to the kerb weight, taking it to 1745kg. However, that figure is 20kg lighter than the previous V12 Vantage Roadster, produced in 2012. Apart from the roof, the roadster is identical to the coupé.
Adjustable chassis features include Bilstein three-stage adaptive dampers, a three-stage dynamic stability control system and a two-stage ABS set-up, traits that are changeable through selecting one of the three driving modes: Normal, Sport and Track.
Standard equipment includes carbon-ceramic brakes. On the options list are lightweight 10-spoke alloy wheels and an Interior Carbon pack.
