BUSINESS owners looking for the ultimate expression of success should be dancing with glee at the introduction of the new Aston Martin DB11 Volante.
Alongside the DB11 Coupe that was launched to wide acclaim last year, the new DB11 Volante sets new standards of performance, innovation, engineering and style to create the definitive open-top Sports GT.
Lighter and more rigid than the model it replaces, the DB11 Volante has been engineered to deliver greater levels of performance and handling.
Powered by a new 4.0-litre twin-turbo 500bhp V8 engine, the DB11 Volante is built around the same aluminium structure first seen in the DB11 Coupe. Fitted with an eight-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission, electric power steering and limited-slip differential with dynamic torque vectoring, the driver is able to configure the car’s responses to suit the road, weather conditions or their mood.
The Aston Martin DB11 Volante features the same single-piece aluminium bonnet and innovative ‘Curlicue’ aerodynamic feature from the DB11 Coupe. It also boasts new wood or carbon fibre veneer panels on the seat backs, a beautifully tailored fabric hood – available in a choice of Bordeaux red, black silver or grey silver – ultra-slim ‘light blade’ tail lights, and a striking new design of forged alloy wheel.
The end result is a breathtaking shape that perfectly expresses the character of an Aston Martin convertible GT. But you shouldn’t need us to tell you that Aston Martin make the most achingly beautiful cars in the world.
Aston Martin President and Chief Executive Officer, Dr Andy Palmer, said of the DB11 Volante:
“For many of our customers, indeed many generations of Aston Martin customer, the Volante has always offered something very special: a unique combination of elegant style, innate sporting ability and sensory engagement that lifts it above other open-top cars. The new DB11 Volante captures those qualities perfectly and promises the kind of pleasure and enjoyment that can only come from driving an open-top Aston Martin”
Orders are now being taken for the new Aston Martin DB11 Volante with deliveries scheduled to begin in the first quarter of 2018 – just in time for the Spring sunshine. Prices in the UK will start from a riff-raff discouraging £159,900.
