The Aston Martin DB9 is a grand tourer produced by Aston Martin from July 2004 to July 2016. Available in coupé and convertible body styles, the latter designated the Volante, the DB9 was the successor to the DB7. First shown at the 2003 Frankfurt Auto Show, the DB9 was the first model built at Aston Martin's Gaydon facility.

The DB9, whose initial design was conceived by Ian Callum and Henrik Fisker,[12] uses an all-aluminium architecture—internally designated as the VH (vertical/horizontal)—which served as a basis for the automobile's chassis.[13] the engine is the 5.9-litre V12 derived from the the Vanquish. Incremental enhancements were implemented in both 2009 and 2011, introducing growth to the engine output and subtle alterations to the exterior. Notably, the 2013 model year facelift saw substantial advancements in design, engine capabilities, and the overall driving experience.
