The Aston Martin DB11 is a grand tourer[1] coupe produced by Aston Martin since 2016. It debuted at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2016, as a replacement to the DB9.[2] It is the first model launched in Aston Martin's 'second century' plan and the first all-new car launched since the company's tie-up with Daimler AG.
The DB11 is powered by an all-new 5204 cc twin-turbo V12 engine, making it the first turbocharged series-production Aston Martin.[3] The engine produces 600 bhp (447 kW; 608 PS) and 516 lb⋅ft (700 N⋅m). The car is equipped with a rear-mounted 8-speed ZF automatic gearbox. The DB11 accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.9 seconds and reaches 322 km/h (200 mph). A smaller 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine developed with Mercedes-AMG is also expected to be put into the DB11 in the future.[4]
