It offers powerful driving dynamics, a robust engine, a sizable trunk, and a luxurious interior. With several such attractive features, the vehicle is meticulously designed to make every ride a pleasant and memorable experience. Here is what makes the Aston Martin DB11 unique:
Models
The Aston Martin DB11 is available as a V12 coupe, a V8 coupe, and a convertible, Volante. The convertible shares its 4.0-liter M177 twin-turbocharged V8 engine, generating 503 horsepower and 513 lb-ft of torque, with the V8 coupe.
Interior and exterior
Aston Martin DB11’s aluminum body structure combines lightness and strength and sets a high standard for sporting grand tourers. All models boast a luxurious interior, flexible, well-equipped cabin, tasteful layout, a central information display, and superior soundproofing. Its power-adjustable heated front seats enhance passenger and driver comfort. The car also offers attractive standard high-tech features like an 8-inch infotainment display with rotary control dial, a premium sound system, digital instrument gauges, and an in-car Wi-Fi hotspot.
Space and comfort
The DB11 4-seater Coupe offers more than adequate space, thanks to a roomy luggage compartment that can hold two golf bags and ISOFIX points for two kid seats. The headroom in the front seats has been increased by 10 mm, and the headroom and legroom in the back seats are increased by 54 mm and 87 mm, respectively. Taller people can comfortably drive, ride shotgun, or sit in the back with plenty of room.
Engine and performance
The mighty V8 and V12 twin-turbo engines effortlessly deliver 503 bhp and 630 bhp, respectively. Aston Martin offers a rear-wheel drive system with the V12 coupe model. Paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission, adaptive suspension, and 20-inch wheels, the DB11 makes for an exciting and smooth ride. One can choose from three driver-selectable dynamic modes: GT, Sport, and Sport Plus. GT is perfect for a smooth drive around town. To increase the car’s firmness and agility, Sport mode is ideal. Alternatively, one can turn up the intensity by using Sport Plus. The driver has complete control over the suspension, steering, and torque vectoring while driving.
