Aston Martin has unveiled its fastest SUV yet, taking on the Ferrari Purosangue and Lamborghini Urus SE, the Aston Martin DBX S.

The DBX S is powered by a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine with 718 hp and 900 Nm of torque, which is 21 more than its sibling, the DBX 707. Compared to the competition, it has 3 hp more than the Purosangue but 82 hp less than the Urus SE. It accelerates to 100 km/h in 3.3 seconds, the same as the DBX 707, but is 0.3 seconds faster to 200 km/h.

The car is equipped with a new black grille, new front and rear bumpers, larger sills, and other components that the company claims further improve airflow. Buyers can optionally choose components that further reduce the car’s weight, such as carbon sills or bumpers and a special polycarbonate grille. It is mounted on lightweight 23-inch magnesium wheels. The cabin features patterned seats, the design of which is replicated on the ceiling if the buyer opts for an 18-kilogram lighter roof.

It should also be noted that the DBX S has borrowed some technology from the new Valhalla supercar.

The company has not announced when the first units will reach their owners or how much the DBX S will cost.
