Although the DB11 sits above the Vantage and is a superb GT, its general comfort and standard of interior materials were always good rather than exceptional and not quite at the level of the Bentley Continental GT.
The trio of teaser images provided shows one major upgrade – a new interior that seemingly ditches the Mercedes COMAND-based infotainment of current Aston products with a new low-mounted touchscreen in its place. This alone will bring the DB11 into the modern era. Whether it is MBUX based or something else is unknown, but at the launch of the DBX707, it was suggested Aston was working on an in-house system.
Then again, Aston has often successfully merged lithe driving dynamics with comfort, so we hope that this new GT doesn’t go too soft. The company did say that this car and all new Aston models will usher in “pinpoint driving dynamics,” so it’s not as if an engaging driving experience hasn’t been considered.
