Aston Martin DB9 is a 2-door grand tourer model manufactured by British automaker Aston Martin at the Gaydon factory, Warwickshire. The model was first introduced at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2003 and officially sold in the market from 2004 with a coupe version. In 2005, the company continued to add a convertible variant called Volante. DB9 was maintained in production until 2016 before stopping production.
DB9 is considered the successor to Aston Martin DB7, a car line that was produced by the British company in the period 1994-2004. This model was written by two designers Ian Callum and Henrik Fisker, highlighted by a luxurious style mixed with sporty elements.
In terms of structure, the DB9 is developed on the VH (Vertical/Horizontal) chassis platform characteristic of Aston Martin. The car uses many lightweight materials such as aluminum and composite for the body and frame, helping to reduce weight while still ensuring durability.
Throughout its production life, Aston Martin has made several upgrades for the DB9. Two upgrades in 2008 and 2010 mainly focused on details such as headlights, taillights, engine and interior. By 2012, the company continued to refine the front design of the car, with a new headlight cluster and appearance reminiscent of the Aston Martin Virage model.
In terms of operation, the Aston Martin DB9 uses a 6.0-liter V12 engine, producing a maximum power of 470 horsepower and a maximum torque of 600 Nm. The car comes with a 6-speed Touchtronic II automatic transmission developed by ZF Friedrichshafen.
Thanks to this configuration, the DB9 is capable of accelerating from 0 to 100 km/h in about 4.6 seconds before reaching a top speed of about 306 km/h - a remarkable statistic for a grand tourer model that favors luxury and long-distance performance.
