The Aston Martin DBX is the first ever SUV from the Gaydon based Marque released in 2020 and built in a dedicated facility in St Athens in Wales. Although built on an entirely new platform to support its off road credentials the DBX is still very much an Aston Martin Sports car at heart, powered by a 4 litre twin-turbo V8 that delivers 700nm of torque and produces 550ps (543hp) with an active 4 wheel drive system.
The DBX is at home on the track or in the field with 5 different driving modes available to you; as default its the GT mode, then you have Sport, Sport Plus, Terrain and Terrain Plus, with the Terrain modes very much aimed at supporting off road adventures whilst Sport and Sport plus will allow you take the DBX to its max on the track. In addition to this the DBX has very strong towing capabilities with a rating of up to 2,700 kg (6,000 lb).
The DBX707 was released in 2022 and boasts significant performance upgrades over the DBX, the DBX707 whilst still powered by the same V8 as the DBX now delivers 707ps (697hp) and 900nm of torque. The 9 speed automatic gearbox is now a wet clutch system with a revised set of gear ratios putting the 707 firmly into the SSUV category.
