Overview
The Aston Martin DBX is a crossover SUV produced by British luxury car marque Aston Martin since 2020. It is the first SUV the company has made. It has been described as both a "full-sized" and as a "mid-sized" vehicle.
Design
The DBX is the first car made at Aston Martin's new facility in St Athan, Wales. According to executive vice president and chief creative officer Marek Reichman, the wheelbase of the DBX stretches as far out as possible for the wheels to be positioned at the corners of the vehicle, which, with the low roofline, creates the illusion of a smaller car, helping make the DBX appear more like a traditional Aston Martin shape. The DBX features swan-hinged doors, while the front grille is the largest ever fitted on an Aston Martin.
Specifications and performance
While related to the Vantage, the DBX is built on its own dedicated platform. Like other Aston Martin models, it is constructed with bonded aluminium panels and extrusions. The powertrain and infotainment technology are borrowed from Mercedes-Benz. The DBX uses Mercedes-AMG's M177 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine that has a power output of 550 PS and 700 Nm of torque. The DBX is capable of accelerating from 0-62 mph in 4.5 seconds, and attaining a top speed of 292 km/h.
