2024 Aston Martin DB12 Volante in China Grey represents a fusion of British grand touring heritage and modern open-top performance, sculpted for drivers who seek both drama and distinction. With only 5,000 kilometres on the odometer and offered exclusively by order to Cyprus, this car captures the essence of an ultra-luxury cabriolet that delivers more than mere visual splendour. It offers a masterfully tuned driving experience and an exceptionally detailed cabin that reflects an unwavering commitment to craftsmanship and innovation.
Beneath the refined exterior lies a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 engine producing 662 hp and 800 nm of torque. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h is achieved in just 3.7 seconds, delivered with a seamless surge that’s both urgent and composed. Despite its explosive performance, the DB12 Volante remains efficient for its class, achieving a fuel economy of 11.5 litres per 100 kilometres, with CO₂ emissions rated at 278 g/km. Whether cruising through coastal roads or carving through mountain passes, this car blends open-air exhilaration with a structural rigidity uncommon among convertibles.
The China Grey paintwork brings a subtle and modern tone to the sculpted panels, while the black-finished front grille, smoked tail lights, and black wings badges create a stealth-inspired look. Design elements such as the Upper and Lower Exterior Packs in gloss black and the bonnet mesh in dark finish amplify the car’s assertiveness without disrupting its elegance. Satin black mirror caps, side strakes, window and windscreen surrounds in gloss black further reinforce the DB12 Volante’s purposeful presence. Rolling on 21-inch Y-spoke forged alloy wheels with a diamond-turned finish and backed by vibrant red brake calipers, this car makes a statement even at a standstill.
Step inside, and you’re surrounded by a bespoke cockpit clad in Phantom Grey semi-aniline leather, a contemporary shade that’s both luxurious and inviting. The Inspire Design interior layout features a Sport Duotone palette, combining subtle contrast stitching and light perforation on the seat inners with seatbacks finished entirely in leather. The seatbelts are rendered in Spice Red, offering a bold touch of colour that complements the otherwise monochromatic interior. Seat adjustment in 16 ways, paired with Sports Plus seats and the heated sport steering wheel, ensures that both driver and passenger are supported during long-distance travel or spirited drives alike.
Carbon fibre details abound, especially within the Carbon Fibre Interior Pack. Satin 2x2 twill carbon is featured in the centre trim inlay, while anodised black treadplates add an understated final detail at entry. The steering wheel is finished in Phantom Grey semi-aniline leather to match the surrounding upholstery, and the headliner is similarly trimmed, creating a seamless and immersive cockpit environment. Extended ambient lighting adds a soft glow throughout the interior, enhancing the atmosphere for both daytime and night-time journeys.
Technology within the DB12 Volante is equally advanced. A premium Bowers & Wilkins sound system delivers concert-quality acoustics, transforming every drive into an experience. The 360-degree camera system, blind spot monitoring, and automatic parking assistant make city navigation and tight parking situations stress-free. Keyless entry and an Aston Martin tracking unit are also included for added convenience and security. A garage door opener and wind deflector extend the car’s usability for everyday luxury and grand touring practicality.
Practicality is not overlooked despite its supercar soul. With a boot capacity of 262 litres, the DB12 Volante is designed to carry both passengers and weekend luggage with equal poise. The balance of performance, craftsmanship, and comfort within this specification is precisely what places it at the forefront of the grand touring convertible segment.
This 2024 DB12 Volante, with its rare China Grey finish and Phantom Grey semi-aniline interior, represents one of the most tastefully executed combinations available. With carefully selected bespoke features, advanced technology, and thrilling performance, it stands ready to define open-air luxury motoring in Cyprus for years to come.
