It takes one push of a button and a mere 17 seconds to raise or lower the roof of the Volante. Hood up or down, the lines of a DB9 Volante remain breathtakingly beautiful. DB9 was conceived and designed, from the outset, as both a Coupe and a convertible Volante. This uncompromising approach is typical of the whole DB9 engineering philosophy. That is why DB9 Volante is one of the most structurally rigid and best handling convertibles in the world. It is also one of the fastest and quietest. It looks elegant and perfectly proportioned from every angle with roof up or down. As with all Aston Martins, beauty and proportion is of key importance. Designed to Stir the Soul. A great sports car needs a great engine it is the heart of any high performance machine. In DB9s case, that great engine is a powerful yet refined all aluminium 6.0 litre V12. The results in a power to weight ratio with one of the highest figures in its class. Performance is enormous, yet usable. The top speed is 186 mph and acceleration sees 0 to 62 mph in 4.9 seconds and DB9 will respond with real passion. Great sports cars must handle superbly. They should respond quickly and predictably to driver commands, they should be nimble and agile. The Aston Martin DB9 is the best. The front to rear weight distribution of DB9 is near perfect with 85 percent of the cars mass sited between the front and rear axles. The aluminium V12 engine is mounted as far back as possible in a front mid engined layout. The compact aluminium transaxle housing the gearbox and final drive is positioned at the rear, forward of the rear axle. A lightweight and rigid carbon fibre propellor shaft, housed in a cast aluminium torque tube, transfers torque from the front mid engine to the rear mid transmission. This gives DB9 its superb balance. DB9 is the most thoroughly tested and engineered car in Aston Martins history. It is also one of the most technically sophisticated cars in the world. The long list of design and engineering innovations includes the Organic Electro Luminescent OEL displays in the instrument pack and centre console. These provide higher resolution, and improved clarity, compared with conventional electronic displays. Other innovations include LED Light Emitting Diode rear lamps that project through a reflector, dispensing rays more evenly than other LED systems. They also react more quickly, giving earlier warning to following drivers when braking. DB9 is the first Aston Martin to be produced at the companys new world headquarters in Gaydon, in historic Warwickshire. Gaydon is a dedicated, high technology facility where DB9 is hand built at a series of work stations by technicians and craftsmen. This hand craftsmanship has nothing to do with nostalgia. Hand craftsmanship can deliver superior finishes and unique design details. It can also deliver engineering and design solutions for an exclusive sports car that mass production would find impossible. The single cut headlamp apertures in the front wings remove the need for unsightly cut or join lines and can only be achieved using Aston Martins hand build processes. Hand painting and hand finishing deliver a better paint finish than any mechanised process, and each DB9 benefits from 25 man hours of painting, to ensure a perfect finish. Aston Martin two highly powerful and evocative words and the expression of true prestige, cars that are hand finished to incomparable standards, that epitomise the perfect balance of power and style, beauty and strength.
