Aston Martin DB12 Volante drops the top, keeps the performance
maker is wasting no time getting its convertible companion out the door. Not only that, but it promises to be darn near as fast as the hardtop version.
The powertrain is unchanged. It has the same Aston Martin-tuned version of the Mercedes-AMG twin-turbo 4.0-liter V8 making 671 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque. It also features the same eight-speed automatic transmission and electronically controlled rear differential. The chassis has seen some detail reinforcements compared to the coupe, and of course it has the power folding top mechanism, so while an actual curb weight isn't given, it's likely a bit heavier than the coupe.
Of course the biggest difference in the Volante is the folding top. It's a cloth example, and it's made up of eight layers to help maintain interior refinement with it up. It will drop in 14 seconds and raise back up in 16 seconds. It's even possible to operate it remotely, as long as you're within 6.5 feet of the car; handy if you're in a hurry to take off with the top down, or if you forgot to put it up.
