Aston Martin has announced the 2014 Vanquish Volante will make its global premiere at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in California on August 14.
Described as a "stunning new luxury sports car," the Volante features a carbon fiber body and a triple-skin lightweight fabric roof which needs just 14 seconds to fold. It is powered by a 6.0-liter V12 engine which produces 573 hp at 6,750 rpm and 620 Nm of torque at 5,500 rpm. This allows the convertible to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 4.1 seconds and hit a top speed of 294 km/h.
Besides the Vanquish Volante, the British carmaker also said the 2015 V12 Vantage S and CC100 Speedster Concept will make their first appearances in the United States at this event.
Julian Jenkins, Aston Martin's Regional Director for The Americas, commented: "The Pebble Beach week is now well established as a global celebration of the automobile and we are delighted to be a featured marque for 2013, celebrating our first 100 years, while also looking forward to the future. Along with our partners, we look forward to welcoming current owners, new customers and automotive enthusiasts to share in our celebratory events at The Aston Martin Estate throughout the weekend."
