The latest in its long DB line of grand tourers, Aston Martin has added this gorgeous drop -top, and it's everything Aston fans could hope it to be.
Late in the spring, Aston Martin introduced the latest in its long DB line of grand tourers, the 2024 Aston Martin DB12. Aston Martin AML, +0.73% did everything it could to make the car seem revolutionary – even insisting it was the first example of a new breed of car called “super tourer.” But no one was fooled. It followed the formula of every prior DB car, and we would never have forgiven them if it didn’t.
But there’s one more step to the formula. After introducing a new Grand T…excuse us, Super Tourer, Aston Martin is supposed to quietly bring in a roofless model.Aston Martin hasn’t even hinted at pricing. The current DB11 Volante started in the mid-$230,000 range. Michelin Pilot S 5 tires “made to Aston Martin’s precise requirements” put all that power down. An adaptive damper suspension helps keep it all precise. Aston says specific rear damper tuning is “the main difference between DB12 Coupe and Volante” – presumably to allow it to dance with the same agility with the roof in the trunk.Close the roof at 31 mph There are no significant body changes other than that roof – an 8-layer soft piece.
As with the coupe, it’s the seats that are the real head-turners. The look is sculpted of carbon fiber with Bridge of Weir leather added only where needed for padding. Here, too, the Volante differs from its coupe counterpart. Buyers can select carbon fiber or wood veneer rear seat shells to “create an extra layer of visual interest and luxury when the roof is lowered.”Unchanging in a changing field It is, frankly, everything you expect from a drop-top Aston Martin. And that alone is remarkable.
