01 / THE STORY

History & context

The Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato Coupé, the twelfth model born from the enduring partnership between the Milanese Atelier Zagato and the esteemed British manufacturer Aston Martin, made its grand debut at the prestigious Villa d’Este Concours d’Elegance in May 2016. This exceptional creation, a realization of Aston Martin CEO Andy Palmer’s vision, was meticulously crafted in a limited series of only 99 units at Aston Martin’s Gaydon plant. At its core, the Vanquish Zagato Coupé seamlessly blends Aston Martin’s renowned refinement and mechanical prowess with Zagato’s distinct design philosophy. The bodywork, crafted entirely from carbon fiber, exemplifies the craftsmanship and attention to detail that distinguish collectible automobiles from mass-produced vehicles. Large one-piece panels minimize split lines across the sleek exterior, emphasizing the car’s exclusivity and bespoke nature. One of the standout features of the Vanquish Zagato Coupé is its rear end, adorned with round lights that are a hallmark of Zagato’s styling tradition. The double bubble roof, another signature Zagato design element, not only enhances the car’s aerodynamics but also adds a touch of elegance and individuality to its silhouette. Each aspect of the Vanquish Zagato Coupé reflects a meticulous balance between heritage and innovation, tradition and modernity. From its powerful stance to its refined interior, every detail speaks to the collaborative effort between Aston Martin and Zagato to create a vehicle that is not just a car but a work of art. This limited edition masterpiece stands as a testament to the passion and craftsmanship that define both brands, ensuring its place as a coveted collector’s item and a symbol of automotive excellence.
