Aston Martin shows a picture of a DBX shrouded in darkness on its social media channels. This will be the most powerful SUV on the market, the brand says.
The DXB S, as this super-DBX may be called, has been driving around in the proverbial corridors for a while. Although Aston Martin has not yet ventured into concrete figures, it seems more and more that this super-DBX will receive the mighty V12 of the DBS under the hood. Aston Martin calls the car ‘the world’s most powerful luxury SUV’ and because we have yet to meet the non-luxury super SUV, that simply means that it will be the world’s most powerful SUV.
Then it pays to see what the most powerful SUVs are at the moment. That title appears to go to the 650 hp Lamborghini Urus. If the Aston Martin wants to overcome this with a now available engine from its own ranks, only the 5.2-liter V12 from the DBS comes into the picture. That DBS, which no longer carries the addition ‘Superleggera’ since last year, has 725 hp.
Spoiler work
Also the picture itself actually contains something new. This DBX clearly has a deeper front spoiler than a regular one and the diffuser at the rear also runs further down. The roof spoiler has a kind of raised edge as an extension and of course there are special and unique wheels. So everything indicates that this super DBX will be immediately recognizable as such on the street.
Aston Martin DBX ‘S’. Note the front and rear bumper, wheels and roof spoiler.
The regular Aston Martin DBX
On February 1, we’ll know for sure, because then Aston Martin will stop being secretive about this car.
