DB11 Volante prototype

(2017)

It isn't uncommon for car magazines to show photographs of disguised upcoming models, usually to the disgust of the manufacturer. Odd but exciting that Aston Martin issued images of a lightly disguised engineering car 18 months before the car is officially unveiled. The production DB11 Volante was planned for Spring 2018 and the release of photos on the company website invited expressions of interest.

So far as we knew, the Volante was expected to be powered by the same 5.2 litre twin turbocharged V12 as already seen in the coupe,  but as it has turned out the lighter AMG V8 which will be fitted to the upcoming AM6 Vantage was actually intended. Interestingly, the photos released didn’t show the front of the car. Did that mean the Volante was to have a face different to the coupe? Well no as it turns out.

When launched in Spring 2018, the  DB11 Volante was offered at a price of £159,900 plus extras.
