Aston Martin Unveils DBX S

Gaydon, United Kingdom- Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings PLC., is a British manufacturer of luxury sports cars introduces the DBX S, the new flagship of its SUV range. Building on the dynamic legacy of the DBX707, the DBX S is powered by an enhanced engine with technology derived from the upcoming Valhalla supercar. Lighter, more powerful, and featuring a striking new design, it delivers an even more engaging and responsive driving experience. With distinctive exterior and interior upgrades, the DBX S sets a new standard in the ultra-luxury SUV segment a bold evolution that redefines performance and presence.

From the moment it enters your field of view, the DBX S demands attention. Aesthetically, it balances aggressive design with Aston Martin elegance. A gloss-black honeycomb grille, carbon fibre roof, sculpted side sills, and the dramatic quad stacked exhausts leave no doubt—this is a vehicle born of performance. The magnesium 23" wheels not only reduce unsprung mass but project a commanding stance, while the rear diffuser and aero-enhanced bodywork emphasize both purpose and sophistication.

Aerodynamic efficiency is front and center with the DBX S. From upturned winglets on the sills to active aerodynamic features integrated into the new rear bumper and diffuser, the design merges visual drama with functional gains. Every line channels the brand’s motorsport DNA—evident in the carbon fibre accents, lightweight materials, and precise airflow management.

At its core, the DBX S is powered by a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 engine delivering a class-leading 727PS and 900Nm of torque. This immense power stems from turbo technology shared with the upcoming Valhalla supercar, transferring that heritage to the road with unrelenting force.

Acceleration is blistering: 0–60 mph in just 3.1 seconds, and a top speed of 193 mph, making the DBX S one of the fastest SUVs on the planet. The sound, character, and punch of the powertrain are modulated via an electronically controlled exhaust system—offering a quiet start for urban elegance or an aggressive note for spirited driving.

Handling is where the DBX S truly shines. Its advanced all-wheel-drive system, 9-speed magnesium-bodied transmission, and rear limited-slip differential offer seamless power distribution and exceptional control. An advanced triple-chamber air suspension system with adaptive damping and active anti-roll technology ensures both comfort and agility across diverse terrain.

Whether cruising on the highway or carving through winding mountain roads, the DBX S feels planted, balanced, and connected—thanks in part to its aluminum monocoque structure and extensive use of lightweight materials throughout.

Inside, the DBX S delivers the full Aston Martin experience: hand-crafted materials, ambient lighting, and modern tech tailored to the discerning driver. Features include a 12.3-inch digital driver display, a 10.25-inch central touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and a 14-speaker, 800-watt premium audio system.

Practicality is not sacrificed. With five doors, spacious seating, and over 600 litres of boot space, the DBX S is as usable as it is exhilarating. Driver assistance features such as adaptive cruise control, blind spot monitoring, and a 360° camera system enhance safety and convenience.

While performance takes center stage, Aston Martin has engineered the DBX S with modern emissions standards in mind. Engine enhancements include cylinder deactivation, start-stop technology, and gasoline particulate filters, contributing to more responsible driving without compromising thrills.

The Aston Martin DBX S represents a rare blend: a high-performance SUV with supercar dynamics, wrapped in timeless design, and imbued with every luxury imaginable. More than just a flagship for the DBX line, it’s a bold statement from Aston Martin about the future of performance luxury.

Mr. Aston Martin CEO, Adrian Hallmark, said ‘Over the last two years, Aston Martin have introduced an entire core collection of next generation sports cars as well as a new DBX; all with a new, entirely bespoke infotainment system designed in-house. The marque continues its focus on class leading performance, ultra-luxury design and innovation, broadening the range of products under each core model. The introduction of DBX S not only reaffirms our commitment to producing the most exciting, rewarding and beautiful cars, it also sends a powerful statement of intent about our ambitions not just for DBX, but for the Aston Martin brand.”
