The stunning Aston Martin Vanquish Zagato Concept was recently unveiled at the prestigious Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este at Italy’s Lake Como. Beginning with the iconic DB4 GT Zagato of 1960, the iconic British brand and the Italian design house Zagato have maintained a luxury car building partnership for over fifty years. This fifth collaboration, based on the Vanquish V12, carries signature references from previous Aston Martin concepts such as their CC-100, One-77, and Vulcan.

Powered by Aston Martin’s 5.9-litre 592 hp V-12 engine, the Zagato wears new carbon fibre bodywork shaped as one piece panels and new round taillights with classic Zagato design details and same LED technology from the Vulcan. The interior is a perfect combination of Zagato concepts and Aston Martin’s craftsmanship, with herringbone carbon fibre paired with anodized bronze and aniline leather. The unique Zagato “Z” quilt pattern stitching accents the seats, the door trim, and the centre console while the headrests feature the embossed the Z logo. Although this exquisite design remains a concept for now, the partnership’s previous collaborations suggest it could become another limited production offering.
