Freshly unveiled, the Aston Martin DB11 Volante Convertible
is the latest evolution of the iconic GT Sports. Powered by a new 4.0-liter
twin-turbo V8, the Aston Martin DB11 Volante has not finished to impress.
ASTON MARTIN DB11 VOLANTE: AN EXCEPTIONAL CONVERTIBLE
The Aston Martin DB11 Volante has the privilege of being
considered as the most elegant convertible of the English manufacturer. It is
an exceptional combination of performance, efficiency and sporting character.
The DB11 Volante is now setting new standards of performance, innovation,
engineering and style to create this GT Sports Cabriolet.
Thanks to its new 4.0-litre twin-turbo engine, the DB11
Volante has a brand new aluminum structure. The DB11 Volante goes from 0 to 100
km / h in 4.1 seconds and can go up to 300 km / h. The car has been designed to
provide an extraordinary range of capacity … the level of performance and
handling has been accentuated. It is certainly one of the most prestigious GT
Sports cabriolets on the market.
A PLEASANT CAR TO DRIVE
The interior of the DB11 Volante is comfortable, refined and
especially spacious to stick to its image of grand tourer. In addition to its
heated steering wheel that offers a real comfort in all seasons, the DB11
Volante has an 8-speed paddle-shift automatic transmission. Thanks to the
technologies offered in the convertible, the driver can configure the car
according to the road, weather conditions or simply his mood.
AN ELEGANT AND SPORTING LOOK
The DB11 Volante has a remarkable one-piece aluminum hood
with the aerodynamic innovation “Curlicue”. Seen from the inside, the new wood
or carbon fiber veneer panels on the seat backs offer unparalleled style to the
latest Aston Martin convertible. The sporty side of the DB11 Volante is
definitely emphasized by the superb C graphic-shaped tail lights.
AN INNOVATIVE ROOF
The defining feature of the Aston Martin DB11 Volante is
obviously its convertible roof. Combining the timeless appeal of a fabric hood
with the latest acoustic and insulating materials, the roof cossets occupants
from extreme weather and wind noise. The roof of the DB11 Volante only takes 14
seconds to lower and 16 to close. It can be operated remotely from the key or
on the move at speeds of up to 50 km / h with a headwind of the same strength.
The new system also allowed a 20% gain on the boot volume compared to the DB9
Volante.
To test the resistance of this incredible roof, engineers
have subjected the roof to more than 100,000 cycles in special weather chambers
that reproduce the most hostile environments in the world, compressing 10 years
of use in one-month test. The results of the Life Cycle Durability (LCD) test
were then validated with real-world tests with prototypes.
The Aston Martin DB11 Volante is the most advanced and
complete open-top ever built by the English manufacturer. Styled to put rivals
in the shade and created to achieve the perfect balance of driving, handling,
responsiveness and refinement, the DB11 Volante is designed to provide the
ultimate driving pleasure.
