Aston Martin launched its DB9 Volante — a convertible version of the DB9 grand tourer — at the 2004 Detroit Motor Show. It was the sixth new car from the company in less than two and a half years.Dr. Ulrich Bez, CEO of Aston Martin said: "From the outset of the DB9 program we knew we wanted a convertible model. So the Volante has been designed, engineered and built from the outset as a convertible - it's not a Coupe with just the top taken off.""The DB9 Volante has all of the traditional styling cues you'd expect from a convertible Aston Martin. It's very elegant and perfectly proportioned from every angle, while subtle embellishments help create a powerful-looking sports car.""I wanted to ensure that the DB9 Volante was unmistakably an Aston Martin, but it had to retain all of the values of a convertible. Even with the hood raised it had to look beautiful," said designer Henrik Fisker.Like the DB9 Coupe, power for the Volante is supplied by Aston Martin's low emissions, all-alloy, 48-valve, 5.9-liter, V12 engine. Like the DB9 Coupe it is offered with a six-speed automatic or a six-speed automated manual transmission. Aston Martin DB9 Volante
