Engineering and performance
ENGINE
The most powerful on the planet
DBX S packs more surging power and turbocharged performance than ever before. Engineered by Aston Martin, the upgraded 4.0-Litre Twin-Turbo V8 now produces 727PS making it the most powerful SUV in the world using only an internal combustion engine. The exhaust has been specially tailored to the new turbochargers, reducing back pressure and giving even more voice to the thunderous V8. Combined with lightweight options that produce the greatest power-to-weight ratio in the category, it firmly establishes DBX S at the apex of ultra-luxury SUV power and performance.
TRANSMISSION AND POWERTRAIN
Pure. Powertrain. Punch
The dna of f1®-derived technology coursing freely and emphatically within the dimensions of an suv. Equipped with a 9-speed ‘wet-clutch’ automatic gearbox. 30% faster gear changes compared to a traditional automatic clutch. More torque than a typical torque converter. Multi-plated. Oil-cooled. Fast-as-lightning off-the-line speed via launch control. The power to feed 100% torque from foot to powertrain to road surface. Dbx s is designed to deliver the racing agility, power and feel of a supercar.
HANDLING
One Suv. 5 Thrilling Modes
A rotary switch on the centre console lets the driver access the five configured drive modes. The DBX S gearbox has been further modified to provide an even more memorable driving experience with enhanced abilities across all modes. Change-up points are adjusted to reflect the car’s extended rev range, while downshifts in Sport and Sport+ modes when the car is in automatic are even more aggressive. Select ‘Terrain’ for off-road. ‘GT’ to maximise touring comfort. ‘Sport’ mode for responsive road driving and ‘Individual’ to select personal preferences across suspension, steering and exhaust.
We have an unstoppable quest for profound gratification. A desire to capture the pure human emotion of the driving experience.

Exterior
ROOF
Improved carbon fibre optics
The new optional carbon roof has a single weave pattern to add a more performance-focused aesthetic to both exterior and interior of the dbx s. It replaces the standard glass-panel roof with a 3.8 square-metre carbon fibre option, making it the largest all-carbon roof ever to adorn an aston martin. Specification of the carbon roof offers a further 18kg of unsprung mass, from the very highest point of the car, reducing its centre of gravity and further enhancing both stability and agility.
SIDE
Assertive aesthetics
New side sills with up-turned winglet profiles help channel air along the side of the car whilst adding further presence to the dbx s profile. The iconic side strake is woven into a new visual language signed off with the unique solid metal s badge. Self-presenting door handles power outwards when the suv is unlocked. Flush-glass swivel-head door mirrors further finesse both flanks without impacting aesthetics. Attached to the mirror design are fully integrated cameras to support a 3d camera system that offers infinitely viewable 3d modelling of the suv with associated views.
FRONT
A statement of intent
The optional gloss-black honeycomb grille creates a formidable look that delivers a clear message of unmistakeable identity and powerful intent. It is intricately designed with over 25,000 individual facets which help shift weight distribution rearward, further aiding handling and traction capabilities. Dbx s also offers a dark, double-vaned, all-metal grille as standard. Whatever the preference, form merges with function to take in the huge amounts of air needed to cool the epic powertrain, whilst radiating classic aston martin elegance and attitude.
