Aston Martin DB11

The DB11 showcases a distinctive design language. It boasts of the front-hinging clamshell bonnet, distinctive LED headlights and accentuated lines of the iconic Aston Martin grille. The roof strakes flow uninterrupted from A-pillar to C-pillar. The clean lines continue at the rear, with a sloping deck-lid that smoothly blends into boldly sculpted tail-lights.

The Aston Martin DB11 features clever aerodynamics. Front-end lift is reduced by the gill-like Curlicue which releases high-pressure air from inside the wheel arch via a hidden vent. The rear-end lift is reduced by the Aston Martin AeroBladeTM, which is a virtual spoiler fed by discreet air intakes located at the base of each C-pillar. Air is ducted through the bodywork, before venting as a jet of air from the aperture in the rear deck-lid.

It is powered by a new in-house designed 5.2-liter twin-turbocharged V12 engine. It develops 447 kW (600 hp) and 700Nm of torque. DB11 is hence, the most powerful DB produced till date.

It is built upon a lighter, stronger, and space efficient bonded-aluminium platform. The DB11 boasts of a top speed of 200 mph, and a 0 to 62 mph time of just 3.9 seconds. The vehicle supports three driver-selectable dynamic modes, viz. GT, Sport and Sport Plus.

There is a second, centrally-mounted, 8-inch TFT screen, which is dedicated to infotainment. It also boasts of an auto-park assist feature and a 360-degree birds-eye view camera.

The car comes with wider door apertures, increased head and leg-room in the rear. It also features a fully integrated rear ISOFIX mounting points for a pair of child seats, and a fairly large luggage compartment.
