Aston Martin DB12 Interior

Aston Martin’s designers have understood the typical customer is likely older and prefers traditional controls. So instead of lots of touchscreens there’s a neat array of proper buttons, switches and dials to take care of all the functions without taking your eyes off the road. If you are into technology you may be disappointed by the relatively small infotainment screen, but from a usability perspective it does the job well.

Aston Martin DB12 Engine

The Aston Martin DB12 is powered by the 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 built by Mercedes-AMG that makes 500kW/800Nm.

Aston Martin DB12 Seats

The Aston Martin DB12 is a 2+2 seater, but while the front seats are comfortable and supportive (and finished in high-quality leather) the rear seats are short on room and best used only in emergencies.

The Aston Martin DB12 uses 12.2L/100km of fuel and with its 78-litre tank it has a theoretical a driving range of approximately 630km.
