AN ICON OF BEAUTIFUL

A spectacular standard-bearer for the elegance of grand touring , DB11 is the most powerful and efficient `DB' production model in Aston Martin's history.

Available with the 5.2-litre twin-turbocharged V12 or the 4.0 -litre t win-turbocharged V8 engine at it s hear t, DB11 t akes our grand touring heritage to unprecedented heights. The sophisticated DB11 Volante completes the DB11 family in this prestigious line -up of next-generation cars. Powered by the 4.0-litre twin turbo V8, it offers a stunning and intense open-topped GT experience.

Phenomenal performance, pioneering aerodynamics, exceptional stabilit y, agilit y and strength combine with vastly reduced fuel consumption and emissions to make the A ston Mar tin DB11 uniquely compelling.

A DESIGN EVOLUTION

To preser ve our world-renowned design purit y and honour the `DB' legacy, we distilled Aston Martin design down to its very essence and used it to create something evolved and fresh. Something called DB11.

Instantly recognisable, its design looks inherently right, yet strikingly different. From a structure of beautifully classical proportion, it s shape develops organically, sur face lines emanating from nose to t ail. DB11 is an immaculate expression of true automotive art.

POWERFUL SYMBOLS

Familiar elements have evolved and developed to create new and distinc tive features for DB11. A truly iconic signature, the striking front grille has been reinvented, its lines amplified into a markedly dominant feature, a powerful symbol of the ex tent to which DB11 ha s moved the game on. Bringing harmony of form and function, the new innovative airflow systems, the Curlicue and A ston Mar tin AerobladeTM are key to the car's aerodynamics, channelling the wind to reduce aerodynamic lift and enhance stability.

The clamshell bonnet is a continuation of this fearless design philosophy. It s wraparound form minimises unsightly shut-lines for a pure, sculptural quality rarely seen. In a delightful spectacle, the entire bonnet hinges forwards to provide an exceptional view of the magnificent engine beneath.

NEXT-GENER ATION STRUCTURE

DB11's body struc ture wa s designed to be stronger, safer and more dynamic than it s predecessor. An increased wheelbase enables the engine to be positioned further back for near-perfect weight distribution. Underpinned by a new bonded aluminium body structure that combines lightness and streng th, DB11 sets a formidable new standard for sporting Grand Tourers.

DB11 exploit s it s inner streng th and immense performance with a completely redefined chassis, suspension, steering and electronics. Revised suspension with adaptive damping and multiple driver-selectable dynamics enrich DB11's adapt abilit y.
