Aston Martin DB11 Volante: Goddess of Beauty Loses the Roof and Fits a 503HP Twin-Turbo V8

Aston Martin represents pure elegance, sensuality, class and style of a certain level. If at this excitement of excellence you put a roofless dress – the so-called Volante – you will reach automobile ecstasy. That’s just what the new DB11 Volante represents, for now unveiled with the only available engine – a V8 that promises to keep the same driving emotions of the bigger sister (with V12 and solid roof) but with better fuel consumption and emissions, looking to a wider audience that will not struggle to use it on a daily basis.

Even though an Aston Martin would be used and celebrated by driving it only in the ideal context, the DB11 Volante V8 guarantees the opportunity to enjoy it every day of the year by going to open the canvas roof in 14 seconds and fold it over your head in 16, even while driving, but at no more than a certain speed. Do not be fooled by the enchanted feeling that the lines of the last born transmits, as the twin-turbo 8-cylinder 4-liter is AMG-derived and delivers 503 horsepower and 695Nm of torque on the rear wheels, through an 8-speed automatic transmission.

4.1 seconds are enough to take from 0 to 100 kph and its top speed is 300 per hour, combining the power of a biturbo engine with the renowned driving feel that every gentleman driver that knows Aston Martin expects. A convertible of such rare beauty deserves to be admired, driven and celebrated as James Bond would do coming back from one of his eccentric missions.
