Aston Martin DB12

The Aston Martin DB12 is a grand touring car produced by the British car manufacturer Aston Martin. The car was unveiled in May 2023 as a replacement for the DB11.

History
The DB12 was presented on 24 May 2023, at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival. The DB12 is also the first Aston Martin vehicle to wear the brand's new logo.

Design
The DB12 is a major technological restyling of the DB11 with touches of the DBS. Compared to that, the DB12 has a larger radiator grille, wider track widths and new LED headlights. It also features a redesigned interior and an all-new infotainment system, which can support Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.

DB12 Coupé
The DB12 features a 4.0-litre M177 twin-turbo V8 engine with a power output of 680 PS and 590 lbft of torque. The increase in performance is achieved by optimized compression, larger turbochargers and improved cooling. The DB12 accelerates from 0–62 mph in 3.6 seconds, and it has a top speed of 202 mph. The 5.2-litre twelve-cylinder engine from the previous model is no longer offered.

DB12 Volante
Aston Martin unveiled a convertible version of the DB12 called the DB12 Volante on 14 August 2023. The Volante's roof is an eight-layer fabric top that can open in 14 seconds and close in 16 seconds, with this possible at speeds of up to 31 mph. The DB12 Volante is also claimed to have five per cent better torsional rigidity than the DB11 Volante. The DB12 Volante accelerates from 0–62 mph in 3.7 seconds, and has the same top speed as the coupé of 202 mph.
