Aston Martin will reveal a new sports car next week at the Monterey Car Week, and it's thought to be the DB12 Volante 👀
The key changes for the DB12 lie under the skin. The coupé was hailed as an “all-new car” by Aston Martin chairman Lawrence Stroll, with 80% of its make-up said to comprise new hardware.
Key to this overhaul is a heavily reworked interior, featuring the first infotainment touchscreen to have been developed in-house at Aston Marton. It replaces the switchgear-controlled display from the DB11, which had long outstayed its welcome by the standards of family hatchbacks, let alone £185,000 GTs.’s hand-built, twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 as the only engine.
Dynamic improvements also come from a series of chassis revisions including reinforced braces, crossmembers and undertrays, said to make the DB12 around 7% stiffer than its predecessor. The move to a convertible roof is expected to incur a significant weight penalty, due to additional chassis reinforcements; up from the coupé’s 1685kg kerb weight. For reference, the DB11 Volante weighed 110kg more than the equivalent coupé.
