Introducing DB12 Volante - The Ultimate Open-Top Super Tourer by Aston Martin in Dubai

November 23, 2023
Aston Martin the epitome of luxury and performance is once again pushing the boundaries of automotive excellence with the introduction of the new DB12 Volante. This open-top marvel is the perfect companion to the recently unveiled DB12 Coupe, marking the initiation of new era for Aston Martin sports cars. With a perfect blend of Super Tourer performance and the exhilarating experience of roof-down driving, the DB12 Volante stands as class defining convertible, embodying the essence of elegance and sporting character.
 
Aston Martin's CEO, Amedeo Felisa expresses the brand's commitment to delivering an unparalleled driving experience, stating, "For many of our customers, roof-down driving is the greatest pleasure. Aston Martin Volantes have captured that emotion and expressed it in unique style for more than six decades. With the new DB12 Volante, we have changed the rules, creating a car that intensifies those feelings by preserving all the purity and exceptional sporting capabilities of the DB12 Coupe."
 
Developed in tandem with its Coupe counterpart, the DB12 Volante inherits the game changing design, engineering, and technological advancements of the latest evolution of Aston Martin's distinguished nameplate. The foundation of its uncompromised performance and handling lies in the DB12's exceptionally rigid bonded aluminum structure, ensuring an unrivaled driving experience with the roof up or down.
 
Key structural enhancements, including rear suspension mounting points and lateral connections, contribute to near 5% increase in global torsional stiffness. The focus on detail engineering extends to the underbody components, resulting in improvements in lateral stiffness, suspension performance, and refinement. The DB12 Volante boasts 3.7% increase in global torsional stiffness, providing stable and agile driving experience.
 
Under the hood, the DB12 Volante houses 4.0 Twin-Turbo V8 engine that delivers best-in-class performance. Tuned by Aston Martin engineers to produce 680PS/671bhp at 6000rpm and 800Nm/590lb ft between 2750-6000rpm, this hand-built engine achieves 34% increase in output compared to its predecessor, the DB11. With a top speed of 202mph and acceleration from 0-60mph in mere 3.6 seconds, the DB12 Volante offers breathtaking performance.
 
The power is seamlessly transferred through ZF 8-speed automatic transmission, featuring a range of shift strategies to complement different driving modes. The DB12 Volante also includes an Electronic Rear Differential (E-Diff) for optimal agility and stability, making it true driver's car.
The DB12 Volante exterior design is testament to Aston Martin's commitment to high-performance and high-style. The electrically-operated K-fold roof, with its two-stage folding procedure, achieves a class-leading 260 mm stack height, providing brilliant packaging solutions while maintaining a sleek profile.
 
When the roof is raised the fabric canopy, featuring eight layers of insulation, enhances interior cabin comfort. Lowering the roof reveals the K-fold mechanism beneath a hard tonneau cover, creating a beautifully elegant tail. The roof operation takes only 14 seconds to open or 16 seconds to close, even at speeds of up to 31mph and into 31mph headwind adding convenience and a touch of theater.
Four exterior hood colors, including standard black and optional red, blue, and 'Black and Silver,' offer range of customization options to complement the DB12 Volante's near-endless body and interior colors.
 
Step inside the DB12 Volante, and you will find marriage of exceptional comfort and quality and craftsmanship. The interior features wood veneer or carbon fiber panels on the seatbacks, matched to the door trim inlay, adding extra layer of visual interest and luxury when the roof is lowered.
 
The DB12 range debuts Aston Martin next generation infotainment system, developed entirely in house. The system includes 10.25" Pure Black touchscreen with full capacitive gesture control, seamlessly integrating online connectivity and providing access to features like Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
 
For audiophiles Aston Martin has partnered with Bowers & Wilkins to deliver standard fitment 390w 11-speaker audio system. Additionally, an optional halo system, 15-speaker, double-amplified 1,170W surround sound system, caters to true music enthusiasts with high-performance loudspeakers for an immersive listening experience.

From small distinguishing details to full-scale engineering and production of entirely bespoke components, Q allows customers to shape their ultimate DB12 Volante.
 
Aston Martin's Chief Creative Officer Marek Reichman encapsulates the essence of the DB12 Volante for sall in Dubai, stating, "The new DB12 Volante is again another emotional Aston Martin design form with a desire to be driven. We’ve sculpted a graceful muscular exterior shape that reflects its immense capabilities, set atop very advanced structural elements, with clean contemporary interior.
 
The Aston Martim DB12 Volante in Dubai will make its global debut at Monterey Car Week in California, gracing The Quail, Motorsports Gathering and the exclusive clubhouse Aston Martin Club 1913 at Pebble Beach Concours D’Elegance over the weekend. This convertible masterpiece represents the epitome of Aston Martin's dedication to delivering an extraordinary driving experience, combining performance, luxury, and the thrill of open-top motoring.
