Design & Presence

The DBS Superleggera Convertible announces itself with theatrical proportions: a long bonnet, flared haunches and a sculpted rear that make the roof down silhouette irresistible. At 4,715 mm long and 1,970 mm wide it dominates the road and draws attention without shouting; the design balances elegance with muscular aero touches that are functional as well as dramatic. The folding roof keeps the lines clean when closed and turns the DBS into a proper grand-touring statement when lowered, maintaining the coupe’s presence even as a convertible.

Interior & Usability

The cabin is a high-class mix of hand-stitched leather, carbon fibre and purposeful controls, where craftsmanship is visible at every seam and switch. Seating is firm and supportive up front, with sports seats that suit long motorway runs and occasional hard acceleration, while the rear seats are best described as occasional use only. Ergonomics place the driver squarely at the centre of the experience, though some controls and infotainment menus feel conservative next to the car’s explosive performance.

Space & Everyday Practicality

The DBS Convertible is a four-seater on paper with a 260-litre boot, which translates to weekend luggage for two rather than family holidays, and the rear benches are tight for adults. With a curb weight of 1,945 kg and payload around 420 kg, the car is built for style and performance rather than cargo capacity or daily chores. The 75-litre tank helps deliver long motorway legs, but everyday utility is limited by the two-door layout and the emphasis on grand tourer dynamics over practicality.

Driving & Handling

Under the bonnet sits a thunderous 5.2-litre V12 producing 770 hp and 900 Nm of torque, which sends the DBS from 0–100 km/h in about 3.6 seconds and on towards a 340 km/h top speed; the performance is brutally immediate and intensely rewarding when provoked. Rear-wheel drive and a refined automatic gearbox deliver a connected, rear-biased handling feel that masks the car’s bulk, although the mass is felt in tighter transitions and city manoeuvres. The suspension strikes a grand-touring balance: composed and stable on long runs, yet capable of gripping and steering with surprising agility for a flagship convertible.

Efficiency, Consumption & Range

Fuel consumption is part of the DBS bargain: official figures sit around 13.5 L/100 km with CO2 near 314 g/km, meaning running costs and fuel stops will be significant compared with smaller GTs. With a 75-litre tank the theoretical highway range approaches ~555 km, but real-world mixed or enthusiastic driving typically reduces that figure noticeably, so expect more frequent visits to the pump. Ownership of this car comes with high fuel and maintenance demands that match its V12 character.

Assistance & Infotainment

The DBS offers a modern suite of driver aids and in-car tech that covers essentials like adaptive cruise, parking sensors and blind-spot monitoring, presented in a system that favours clarity over gimmicks. Infotainment includes navigation and smartphone mirroring with a premium audio system to complement the V12 soundtrack, although the user interface lags some rivals in terms of graphical polish and speed. Safety and comfort features make the car usable on long journeys, but the emphasis remains on driving engagement rather than being a technology showcase.

Who Should Buy the DBS Superleggera Convertible?

This convertible is aimed at buyers who prioritise dramatic presence, V12 performance and craftsmanship over economy or everyday practicality, and who value the emotional reward of a loud, fast grand tourer. It suits those who want a rare, head-turning roof-down experience with serious straight-line pace and GT comfort, rather than maximum rear-seat usability or frugal running costs. Current versions are available including the DBS 770 Ultimate Volante, so buyers seeking the pinnacle of Aston Martin’s flagship convertible will find what they expect: theatrical performance wrapped in bespoke luxury.
