Coming soon to Signature Car Hire from the stable of Aston Martin is the superb new Virage Coupe. Timing, precision and sheer performance characterise this new car, as one would undoubtedly expect from the masterful marque. Whilst wrapped in a sublime body which draws one’s eyes along its sleek lines, this supercar delivers its race-bred performance in a perfectly-tuned and almost understated manner.
This latest car is the pinnacle of the development of the VH range. A perfect element in the palette of sports cars offered by Aston Martin, the Virage Coupe offers drivers an experience unique amongst the marque’s blueprint.
The personality of the Virage Coupe is intrinsically introverted to the beholder, yet alludes to superb sports car performance to the driver.
There is nothing to mistake though in the engineering of this refined car. The legendary hand-built 6.0 litre V12 engine produces an awesome 490 bhp rating the Virage Coupe high up in the league distinguished supercars. 570 Nm of torque mean that this is a car which causes more than a murmur in polite conversation. The ideal complement for such an engine is the six-speed Touchtronic II automatic transmission. This partnership is founded on the fact that the front mid-mounted power unit contributes to the perfectly-balanced weight distribution.
This poise leads to a determined sense of agility, allowing the driver to experience race-bred performance whilst seated in a seamlessly-luxurious sports car. An ADS, or Adaptive Damping System, allows the driver to be the master of the road conditions, with up to ten different settings revealing what true performance feels like.
The integrity of the Virage Coupe is further enhanced by the ‘Sport’ feature. Engaging a sharper throttle response, the driver is able to change gear faster whilst preventing the gears from shifting up as the rev limiter takes up.
One of the most important features however of the Virage Coupe is not how fast it can go, but how fast it can stop. An identifying characteristic of the car will be that it will arrive with Carbon Ceramic Matrix brakes as standard, a step change in the standard of cars even at this level. Paired with the excellent weight distribution, this means that the handling of the Virage Coupe is beyond expectation.
Levels of comfort indeed exceed the imagination for such a performance-driven sports car. Inside the hallmark swan-wing doors, blended Bridge of Weir leather flows over the interior giving a unique journey for the optical senses as well. Upholstery becomes more than just somewhere to sit.
