Aluminum and carbon fiber Vanquish S
The Aston Martin Vanquish is the first-ever production vehicle to feature carbon fiber-wrapped foam as a structural component. Its A pillars consist of carbon fiber woven around polyurethane cores.
The main body structure comprises carbon fiber, extruded aluminum, and composite materials bonded together to form a central monocoque safety cell with additional deformable, composite-structure, energy-absorbent zones front and rear. The transmission tunnel is reinforced with carbon fiber. Cut-a-way of an early Vanquish Vanquish S |
