Think of the DBS Volante -- the 16th convertible in Aston Martin's history -- as the perfect cocktail: one part drop-top motoring, one part luxury, and one big part performance. Aston Martin claims a convertible DBS was always in the cards, so little work was apparently needed to lose the fixed roof and attach a soft-top. In fact, that's just about all the crew at Gaydon did to create the DBS Volante, which is making its world debut at the 2009 Geneva motor show.
With the exception of the roof, nearly every aspect of the Volante is identical to that of the DBS coupe. Both rocket down the road thanks to a 510-hp, 6.0L V-12 engine that produces 420 lb-ft of torque. Both offer a six-speed manual or six-speed Touchtronic automatic gearbox with manual shifting capability. According to Aston, they'll both do zero to 62 mph in 4.3 sec and top out at 191 mph, and they'll both come to a quick stop thanks to carbon-ceramic brakes.
