阿斯顿·马丁Vantage是一辆漂亮的汽车，它为铭牌赋予了崭新的生命，给您在跑车中想要的一切。好吧，除了车顶，当您想感受头顶风时，所有东西都会飞出去。阿斯顿·马丁Vantage敞篷跑车是双门轿跑车的升级版。

The Aston Martin Vantage is a beautiful car – one that gave the nameplate a fresh, new lease on life. It’s everything you could ask for in a sports car. Well, everything except a roof that pops off when you want to feel the wind on your head. The Aston Martin Vantage Roadster, a droptop version of the drool-worthy coupe, changes that.

就像硬顶车型一样，该车具有低摆、激进的姿态，并带有空气动力学线条，赋予其无可否认的运动美感。只要按一下按钮，就可以将其车顶收起来，让您以惊人的速度在高速公路上沐浴阳光。

Just like the hardtop model, the vehicle sports a low-slung, aggressive stance, with aerodynamic lines that give it an undeniably sporty aesthetic. Except, you know, the darn thing can shed its roof at the push of a button, allowing you to soak the sun while you plow through the highway at breakneck speeds.

阿斯顿·马丁Vantage敞篷跑车配备Z形织物车顶，可以折叠或展开，用时不到7秒。具体来说，它需要6.7秒的打开时间和6.8秒的合上时间，这使其成为同类产品中最快的全电子车顶装置。请注意，车顶装置只能以最高31 mph的速度使用，因此，如果您驾驶时感到有点毛毛雨，则必须放慢速度。由于该车采用紧凑型车架设计，因此可转换的方向不会改变太多线条，从而确保了织物的东西看起来像双门跑车一样令人惊叹，尽管它确实有点重，但增加了132磅的重量。

The Aston Martin Vantage Roadster is equipped with a Z-frame fabric roof that can fold in or deploy in less than seven seconds. Specifically, it takes 6.7 seconds to collapse and 6.8 seconds to deploy, which, the company claims, makes it the fastest fully-electronic roof mechanism of its kind. Do note, the roof mechanism can only be used at speeds of up to 31 mph, so you’re going to have to slow down a little if you’re driving with the top off and you feel a drizzle coming. Because of the vehicle’s compact frame design, the convertible orientation doesn’t change the lines all that much, ensuring the darn thing looks every bit as stunning as the coupe, although it does get a bit heavier, putting on an extra 132 pounds.

车辆还损失了一些后部空间，将后备箱空间从12.4减少到了7立方英尺。是的，这听起来像是大幅减少，阿斯顿·马丁声称它仍然可以容纳标准尺寸的高尔夫球包以及其他一些配件。另外，您仍然可以在其中放几箱啤酒和杂货，以防万一您想将跑车带到小型超市或其他地方。

The vehicle also loses some space in the rear, cutting down the boot space from 12.4 to seven cubic feet. Yes, that sounds like a drastic reduction, although Aston Martin claims it can still fit a full-sized golf bag, along with a few other accessories. Plus, you can still fit a couple of boxes of beer and groceries in there, just in case you want to take the sports car to the mini-mart or something.

阿斯顿·马丁Vantage敞篷跑车采用相同的前置中置4.0升双涡轮V8发动机，该发动机来自梅赛德斯·奔驰，可输出503马力和505磅英尺的扭矩。这足以在3.7秒内将其从静止状态发送到每小时60英里的速度，仅与轿跑车的加速速度相差一刻。为了适应车辆的新形式，阿斯顿·马丁的工程师针对悬架操作特别调整了悬架，差速器，助行器和驾驶模式，以确保其性能与硬顶对手一样，具有精确的操控性，速度和转弯性能。

The Aston Martin Vantage Roadster houses the same front mid-mounted 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine sourced from Mercedes-Benz, which puts out 503 horsepower and 505 pound-feet of torque.  That’s enough power to send it from standstill to 60 mph in 3.7 seconds, just a single tick behind the acceleration of the coupe. To accommodate the vehicle’s new form, Aston Martin engineers tuned the suspension, differential, driving aids, and driving modes specifically for convertible operation, ensuring it performs with the same precise handling, pace, and cornering performance drivers have enjoyed with its hardtop counterpart.

遗憾的是，它没有与双门跑车相同的七速手动变速箱选项，因此您只能使用ZF八速自动变速箱驾驶。顺便说一下，在屋顶展开的情况下，该死的东西可以达到190 mph的最大速度。没有任何关于它可以达到最高速度的消息，但是我们可以想象，它仍然可以逼近那些最大速度。

Sadly, it doesn’t get the same seven-speed manual transmission option as the coupe, so you’re relegated to driving it with a ZF eight-speed automatic. With the roof deployed, by the way, the darn thing can hit max speeds of 190 mph. No word on how fast it can go with the top off, but we imagine, it can still push pretty close to those max speeds.

阿斯顿·马丁Vantage敞篷跑车的首批装置将于4月至6月开始发货。价格是$ 161,000美元，因此仅比轿跑车贵10英镑。

First units of the Aston Martin Vantage Roadster will start shipping between April and June. Price is $161,000, so it’s just 10 grand more expensive than the coupe.
