DB11 (2016 to 2023)

Introduced in 2016 as the first model of Aston Martin’s "Second Century Plan," the DB11 was produced until 2023, marking a transition to turbocharged power and modern electronics. It launched with an in-house 5.2L twin-turbo V12 producing 447kW (600hp), followed in 2017 by a lighter, more agile 4.0L twin-turbo V8 sourced from Mercedes-AMG. Both engines utilized an 8-speed ZF automatic transaxle. The range included the Coupé, the Volante (convertible), and the performance-flagship DB11 AMR, which boosted the V12's output to 470kW (630hp). In the 2026 Australian market, the DB11 is a highly sought-after grand tourer, particularly for those who prioritize the V12's prestige before the brand shifted toward V8-only lineups for subsequent models like the DB12. The buyer pool consists of high-end commuters and luxury collectors who value the DB11's vastly improved cabin space and reliability compared to the older DB9. Currently, Australian market values for the DB11 are stabilizing as it enters "modern classic" territory: well-maintained V8 models generally range from $220,000 to $280,000 AUD, while V12 and AMR variants command a premium, typically fetching between $290,000 and $450,000 AUD depending on mileage and bespoke "Q" options.
