"Step inside and get behind the wheel of the fastest, most powerful, and best handling luxury SUV yet. The first car to be produced on Aston Martin’s new line in St Athan, Wales is arguably one of its most unique yet and worthy of being called a James Bond SUV. It features the design and materials expected of any car from the British manufacturer, while incorporating Mercedes-AMG's M177 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine capable of 542 horsepower and 516 lb-ft of torque. That means it can achieve 0-62mph in 4.5 seconds with a top speed of 181mph. Impressive numbers for a luxury SUV. In 2021, the DBX also became an official Formula One Medical Car, joining the Aston Martin Vantage in F1’s fleet of safety cars. Overall, the DBX is a confident SUV that makes a bold statement thanks to its near supercar-like performance and the looks of a high-end, premium sedan with luxurious finishes."—Official description[1]
The 2021 Aston Martin DBX is a performance SUV manufactured by Aston Martin.
It appears in Forza Horizon 5 as part of the Car Pass since June 23, 2022.
Synopsis[]
While related to the Vantage, the DBX is built on its own dedicated platform and, like other Aston Martin models, it is constructed with bonded aluminium panels and extrusions.
The powertrain and infotainment technology are borrowed from Mercedes-Benz, using Mercedes-AMG's M177 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine which has a power output of 543 hp (405 kW) and 516 ft·lb (700 N·m) of torque[2], and is capable of accelerating from 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) in 4.5 seconds as well as attaining a top speed of 181 mph (291 km/h)[3].
A 9-speed automatic gearbox is fitted as standard, and towing is rated at up to 6000 lb (2722 kg). An active center transfer case directs torque to the front axle when it is required, and there is also an electronic limited slip rear differential. Adaptive dampers and triple-chamber air springs are both standard, offering a significant range of height adjustment[4].
