Vantage N24

At 1,330 kg (2,930 lb), the Vantage N24 is 250 kg (550 lb) lighter than the standard car. This has been achieved through a range of weight reduction measures including: the removal of the interior trim of the standard car, with the exception of the facia moulding which is re-trimmed in Alcantara; the console and door casings are replaced by new lightweight mouldings; the air-conditioning system is removed, as are the airbags.

The chassis has been fitted with a full high-strength steel rollcage and Recaro competition seats. A suede-trimmed steering wheel with a quick release mechanism is also fitted as standard. The Vantage N24’s safety features are completed with a Sabelt six-point safety harness with a push-button release and Lifeline Zero 360 gas extinguisher system.

The V8 Vantage road car’s acclaimed suspension has required only minor adjustments for optimal track performance. These include larger diameter front and rear anti-roll bars and adjustable ride height aluminium dampers, as well as single rate, flat ground springs with separate helper springs. The front subframe is modified for extra camber and castor.

Cast magnesium front and rear wheels are standard fit with high performance Yokohama A048-R tyres. The brakes are uprated with Pagid RS 29 race pads. As further endorsement of the standard V8 Vantage underframe, the active safety systems are directly carried over to the Vantage N24, including: dynamic stability control, traction control, ABS and electronic brakeforce distribution, providing reassurance and enhanced control in slippery conditions.
