British design house Khan will be back at the Geneva Motor Show in 2017 with another Aston Martin DB9 based supercar – a convertible version of the WB12 Vengeance coupe revealed at the show last year.
Called the WB12 Vengeance Volante, the new model has been teased on social media ahead of its debut next month.
The one teaser image so far confirms that few design alterations – lack of fixed roof aside – are on the way compared to last year’s coupe. The same ‘roulette’ style alloy wheels can be made out, alongside the old-school rounded taillights.
According to Kahn boss Afzal Kahn, “Creating a convertible version of the Vengeance posed some challenges, given the unique coach built nature of the vehicle, but we’ve overcome them in true British fashion.”
Kahn says that despite the Vengeance Volante’s DB9 underpinnings, the car takes design inspiration from the original Aston Martin Vanquish as well as Astons of the 1980’s and 1990s. Though the car’s mechanicals – including its 510bhp 6.0-litre V12 - remain unchanged, it’ll take a claimed 200 hours to coachbuild each example.

No prices have been revealed, but with Coupe versions of the WB12 Vengeance changing hands for around £300,000, it certainly won’t come cheap. We’ll get all the information at the Geneva Motor Show in March.
Will the Kahn Vengeance Volante be one of the best supercars at the Geneva show this year? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
