The Wave Edition to be exclusively auctioned to benefit the Naples Children & Education Foundation at the 2026 Naples Winter Wine Festival Auction

The one-of-a-kind Wave Edition is designed to replicate the movement of water and waves in the Florida Bay area

Aston Martin Naples announces the creation of the Vanquish Volante Wave Edition, a one-of-a-kind luxury high-performance convertible commissioned through the brand’s bespoke service Q by Aston Martin. This singular expression of flagship performance and artistry will make its world debut at the Naples Winter Wine Festival on 31 January 2026, where it will be auctioned to benefit the Naples Children & Education Foundation (NCEF).

Vanquish Volante Wave Edition showcases the extraordinary craftsmanship of Q by Aston Martin, the marque’s personalisation division, where designers drew inspiration from Collier County’s pristine coastline, with design elements evoking the rhythm, reflection, and serenity of water in motion. Together, these details create a space that reflects the Wave Edition’s duality: an exterior defined by energy and dynamism, and an interior devoted to calm and clarity.

The Wave Edition exterior is Q Iridescent Sapphire, a captivating blue finish with a subtle green shimmer; this dynamic paint selection was inspired by the movement of water around the Everglades of Southern Florida. Complementing this unique paint finish are Gloss Black tinted carbon fiber upper and lower packages, seamlessly integrated into an extended body color upper paint scheme that accentuates the car’s fluid silhouette.

The bespoke Club Sport White livery scheme runs across gloss black tinted carbon fibre, like waves breaking against rocks along the coast. The livery is exclusively designed for this Vanquish Volante and created to give sense of energy, including a bespoke wave-inspired lower pinstripe, pinstripes on the bonnet’s Formula 1 – inspired Thermos Louvres, pinstripes on side fenders and rear shield. Red brake calipers provide a striking contrast, serving as a subtle nod to the red buoys that mark Florida’s coastal waters. Adding further definition, the gloss black carbon fibre sidestrakes bear a V12 logo in white, echoing the wave livery.

Inside, the Wave Edition reverses the exterior visual tempo, offering a serene, light-filled cabin that evokes calm and balance, where the Glacier White primary palette is paired with Gloss Black carbon fiber detailing. Pale Blue contrast stitching and welt take the form of a bespoke signature wave motif—an abstract interpretation of a flowing crest—embroidered into the headrests and engraved onto the sill plaques, complemented by Aston Martin Wings stitched into the shoulder bolsters. The rear-cabin carbon fibre crossbrace features the same Club Sport White livery pinstripe as the one flowing across the Vanquish Volante exterior. A Red Anodized start/stop rotary serves as the interior’s subtle nod to coastal buoys.

Vittorio Gabba, Commercial Head of Q Operations at Aston Martin, said: “Vanquish Volante Wave Edition is a sculpture in motion, a car that embodies the beauty and dynamism of water while delivering the pulse-quickening performance that defines Aston Martin. This one-off commission captures the spirit of Florida’s coastline and channels it through the artistry and craftsmanship of Q by Aston Martin.”

Vanquish Volante Wave Edition will be offered exclusively at the 2026 Naples Winter Wine Festival, one of the world’s most prestigious charity auctions. All proceeds will support the Naples Children & Education Foundation (NCEF), whose mission is to transform the lives of underprivileged children in Collier County, Florida. Since 2001, the Festival has raised more than $336 million for children in need.

Vanquish Volante stands as the world’s fastest and most powerful front-engine convertible, combining breathtaking performance with timeless design. Beneath its sculpted bonnet lies a twin-turbocharged 5.2-litre V12 engine, producing 835PS (824bhp) and 1000Nm (738lb-ft) of torque. This formidable power enables Vanquish Volante to accelerate from 0–62mph in just 3.4 seconds and achieve a top speed of 214mph. Its meticulously engineered convertible roof opens in 14 seconds and closes in 16 seconds, operable at speeds up to 31mph.
