Vehement means showing strong feeling, forceful, passionate, or intense. Ardent, fervent, and impassioned are all synonyms of vehement, all expressing strong intensity of feeling. The antonym would describe something restrained, mild, or controlled. 'Subdued' means quiet, restrained, or lacking energy, which is the direct opposite of vehement. Hence, 'subdued' is the correct antonym.
