Aston Martin DB11 finally comes to India: Check the iconic car here

British luxury carmaker Aston Martin, for the first time, showcased the all-new DB11 in India on October 8 in Mumbai. After Mumbai, the car will go on a tour to Pune, Goa, Bangalore, Chennai, and Hyderabad.
The DB11 was unveiled at the 86th International Geneva Motor Show earlier this year, and is likely to be priced for Rs 4.5 crore.

It is the first product launched under the company’s ‘Second Century’ plan. First deliveries of the DB11 car are scheduled to begin during the fourth quarter of 2016.
The DB11 comes equipped with a 5.2-litre twin-turbocharged V12 engine which develops 608PS (600BHP) of power and 700Nm of torque.
It accelerates from 0-62mph in 3.9 seconds, with a top speed of 200mph.
Aston Martin CEO, Dr Andy Palmer said: “This is not only the most important car that Aston Martin has launched in recent history, but also in its 103-year existence. The DB11 rightfully places Aston Martin once again as a leading brand in the luxury automotive market.”
The DB11 combines the latest technology developed in conjunction with technical partner, Daimler.

Using a full-colour 12” TFT LCD display, the all-new instrument cluster presents primary vehicle information, while a second, centrally-mounted 8” TFT screen is dedicated to infotainment.

Controlled via an intuitive rotary control, with an optional touchpad offering character recognition, multi-touch and gesture support, is the new satellite navigation and audio system.

A newly implemented auto-park assist feature and 360-degree birds-eye view camera helps provide safe maneuvering at slow speeds and is also operated via the car’s infotainment system.
At the rear, a sloping decklid with sculpted tail-lights create a new graphic.
It features three driving modes - GT, Sport and Sport Plus, meant to intensify the response of 8-speed automatic ZF transmission.
Heralding a new design era for Aston Martin, DB11 features the front-hinging clamshell bonnet, distinctive LED headlights, accentuated lines of the iconic Aston Martin grille, and roof strakes that flow uninterrupted from A-pillar to C-pillar.
Front-end lift is reduced by the gill-like Curlicue which releases high-pressure air from inside the wheel arch via a concealed vent within the redesigned side-strake.
Innovative aerodynamics play their part with clever management of airflow both over and through the bodywork aiding stability.
It comes equipped with wider door apertures, increased occupant space - especially head and legroom in the rear, fully integrated rear ISOFIX mounting points for a pair of child seats, and a luggage compartment to accommodate two large holdalls plus carry-on baggage.
The rear-end lift is reduced by the Aston Martin AeroBlade; a virtual spoiler fed by discreet air intakes located at the base of each C-pillar.

Air is ducted through the bodywork, before venting as a jet of air from the aperture in the rear decklid.
