The world’s first Super Tourer
This is no mere GT. An icon reborn and reinvented. Smoothed and chiselled into the shape of a Volante and given free rein to cut through continents, erase expectations and completely redefine the open-top category. This is DB12 Volante.
As jaw dropping as it is roof raising. DB12 Volante cruises with a K-fold roof to take the grand to the super with scything style and an aesthetic side profile. Opening and closing in a class-leading time. While giving you the freedom to bare the interior to the world for an open-air theater of performance.
Duetting with analog and digital finishes. An interior wrapped with technology. Every corner obsessively hand-stitched in hedonism, swelling every sense with state-of-the-art infotainment and a specially tuned surround sound system.
Engineering and performance
Propelled by power and purified by performance. DB12 Volante is made piece by piece and inch by inch to seek the speed of missiles. While injecting the cockpit with a turbocharged tourer experience intensity.
Thundering your senses
Blowing the top off performance. The twin-turbo V8 delivers a class-leading 680PS for a top speed of 202mph and comes forged with 800Nm of torque. Letting every ounce of power pour over the road without a roof to stop sound soaring around every edge of the cabin. Putting you at the heart of the ultimate roaring racing experience.
A body chiselled in strength
A dynamics masterclass. Cut from aluminium and reinforced with underbody stiffening components for a 7% increase in overall torsional stiffness. Finding support from anti-roll technology and double wishbone suspension, DB12 Volante flattens bumps and floats on any surface. Taking to the road or the track with a body that resists bends and twists, for a drive that bends to your will.
Taming dynamism
The open-top DB12 Volante comes reinforced with five drive modes. Taking to tarmac with greater grip thanks to ESP. Pulling the road closer to your palms with tighter control. The electronic limited slip rear differential delivers torque intelligently for better handling at any speed. With the non-isolated steering column puts feedback immediately where you can feel it.
Cutting through racecar speeds
Placing the power of control in your ankle. The choice of carbon ceramic brakes makes their debut in an Aston Martin core GT model. 400mm at the front. 360mm at the rear. Cut and patterned to inject confidence and fight heat in the highest speeds. While reducing unsprung mass by 27kg to quicken the feel of control in your hands.
The dynamic duet
Exterior
An open-top model made to marvel. Sleek, beautiful and scythed with sharpness. Carved to let torque flow through its heart-stealing body. And embellished with a reimagined and redesigned finely folded roof. Taking top-down driving to super levels while adding air to the already debonair.
Folded to perfection
DB12 Volante is crowned by a K-fold roof, opening to the atmosphere in a class-leading 14 seconds. And able to close even when you’re cruising at up to 35mph. All without impacting the aesthetic of the side profile. Folded and formed to a mere 260mm stack height, giving a seamless rear profile and maximising luggage capacity. The roof canopy stands acoustically enhanced and incorporates eight layers of insulation materials for improved interior cabin comfort.
Inherited aggression
Inherited and intended to cool. DB12 Volante bares a redesigned and remolded front bumper, fender and grille design. A honed focal point with a larger traditional ‘DB’ single-vaned grille for a 56% increase in open area to aid cooling.
A stronger stance
A constant wordmark of beauty. The side strake has featured on every DB and this super tourer is no different. Stealing glances to the wheels and forming a stronger stance are the side sills. With the front splitters cutting deeper into the ground through lift reduction.
A finer connection to the road
A revolution in rubber. DB12 Volante debuts the new Michelin Pilot Sport S 5 tyre. A harmonious creation between Aston Martin and Michelin. Wrapped in a hand spun compound for super grip to reject every drop of rain and inspire smoothness from every turn of tread. And enveloped in the new tyre are the 21-inch alloy wheels. Tailored, cut and threaded to create an assertive presence and an aggressive side profile.
An illuminating drive
DB12 Volante is fronted furiously by AI-generated light structures. Redesigned into a new six-block pattern and modelled to ensure a consistent and homogeneous light output. The Automatic High Beam lacerates with light for more support in the darkest of nights. As illuminating to the category as it is on the road.
Dominating the road with broader shoulders
DB12 Volante has been strengthened with a 6mm front and 22mm rear increase in track width flowing through to the body width. Bulking with broader shoulders for greater road presence and intimidating with every added inch.
Interior
An interior lined with digital intelligence, stitched with smarter sound and pulsing with never-seen-before infotainment. DB12 Volante wraps your senses in technology. Lines your cabin with the optimum blend of analogue controls and digital technology. The handcrafted past meets the fine-tuned future.
Interlinked intelligence
One thing remains at the core of every Aston Martin. The driver. DB12 offers a precision seating position for a perfect hip-to-heel ratio. Controls are ergonomically placed along the car’s centerline ensuring maximum connection. The high center console ensures immersive engagement with everyday tech interfaces. Swathed in hand-stitched Bridge of Weir leather. Bold, horizontal design lines are softened with elegant interior jewelry and distinctive trim detail. A high-tech, ultra-luxury cabin space embodies true Super Tourer values. Balancing sublime comfort with smart connectivity for long journeys that are effortlessly navigated and endlessly enjoyable.
Finishing touch
DB12 is equipped with 10.25-inch Pure Black, 1,970 x 720 high-resolution screens with ultra-responsive (30-nanosecond reaction time) capacitive touch control. The highest definition for any car with equivalent touch control systems. This allows fingertip input and multi-finger gesture control, creating an immediate sense of connection. DB12 creates a pleasing balance between touchscreen commands and the positive tactility of physical switches for secure, eyes-off mechanical operations such as gear selection, drive selection, heating, and ventilation. The perfect blend of peerless technology and everyday usability.
Next-generation infotainment
A major landmark for DB12. The introduction of Aston Martin’s next-generation infotainment system. Entirely bespoke. Meticulously designed and developed. The marque’s first in-house system. Supports wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™. A fully integrated multi-screen system with driver displays using Pure Black high-resolution screens with ultra-responsive touch control. And voice control. To bring satellite navigation, favorite playlists, and any app you need under instant control.
Symphony of sound
Aston Martin’s next-generation bespoke infotainment system. A formidable suite of connected technologies includes a spectacular surround-sound system from new audio partner, Bowers & Wilkins. Sound resounds from every corner of DB12 with 15 speakers and 1,170 watts steeping you in a deep-end aural ambience. Offering a breadth of acoustic soundscapes and QuantumLogic Immersion. Technology reacts to ambient noise in the cabin, automatically adjusting the audio profile as you drive. Sound processing creates a truly intense sound stage for occupants to immerse themselves in. A sound system that demands an encore.
