Just took a deep dive into the first drive review of the 2026 Aston Martin Vantage Roadster, and wow, they’ve really stepped up their game compared to previous models. The Roadster shares all the updates from the coupe, which include some impressive tech upgrades and a revamped interior that feels both luxurious and modern. Under the hood, there’s a more powerful engine that really delivers on performance.
One of the coolest features is the convertible top—it fully retracts in under 7 seconds, making it super convenient to switch between coupe and roadster modes on the fly. Driving it at high speeds feels significantly better than before, with improved handling and responsiveness that make it a joy on both highways and twisty roads.
The 2025 update to the Vantage isn’t entirely new, but it’s heavily revised both aesthetically and mechanically. Sure, the price has gone up, but considering all the enhancements and the overall charm of the new Vantage, it seems like a worthwhile investment for enthusiasts. Definitely looking forward to seeing how the Roadster stacks up in real-world driving!
