What Is the Aston Martin Vantage GT3?
The Aston Martin Vantage GT3 is powered by a 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 — the AMG-derived engine that also powers the road-going Vantage — producing around 550 bhp. The Vantage GT3 is front-mid-engined, with a weight distribution that gives it strong mechanical balance and predictable behaviour at the limit.
The current Vantage GT3 was introduced in 2019, with subsequent updates refining the car through its homologation cycle. The current specification represents the most competitive iteration in the programme's history.

Aston Martin GT3 Racing Record
The Vantage GT3's strongest results have come at prestige endurance events. TF Sport has achieved strong results at the Spa 24 Hours and WEC rounds. In North America, Heart of Racing has been Aston Martin's standard-bearer in IMSA, producing consistent results in the GTD class across multiple seasons.
British GT is a natural home for the Vantage — a UK-built car in the UK's premier national GT championship — with multiple strong championship campaigns.
