DBS Highlights
ASTON MARTIN DBS
FEROCITY. DRIVEN.
For over half a century, the name DBS has meant just one thing: the ultimate production Aston Martin.
ENGINEERING
Strongest Lightweight Materials
Typically, as a car gets faster, it requires more cooling, larger brakes and stronger suspension, which inevitably results in increased weight. The DBS begs to differ. Naturally it has been upgraded in all areas required to handle its phenomenal performance by using the finest, strongest lightweight materials. The DBS boasts a geometrically optimal multilink rear axle and an even more stable stance thanks to a track that is 10mm wider than the DB11 at the front and 20mm wider at the rear.
Enticing Technology
Information is provided by state of the art TFT screens, one 12” unit to provide the instruments and an 8” display for all infotainment requirements, including the latest satellite navigation mapping. You can instruct your DBS in the normal way, by letter recognition drawn on the touchpad, or gesture or voice control.
PERFORMANCE
The Power of the Punch
The 715bhp provided by the DBS 5.2 V12 twin-turbo engine is a colossal figure by any standard. But that is just where its talent starts. When you drive the DBS you get to savour something else even more phenomenal – its torque. It is the power of the punch you feel when a car accelerates, and the DBS has 900Nm of it, more than any Aston Martin road car in our history. Thanks to the outstanding flexibility of our hand-built, twin-turbo 5.2-litre V12 engine, there’s no need to wait: all of it is available from just 1800rpm. With the ZF 8HP95 gearbox, the DBS has the most sophisticated driveline yet.

DESIGN
Aggressive, yet beautiful.
The shape is unmistakably Aston Martin, but stronger, broader and more muscular than ever, not at a stylist’s whim but to cool and control the most powerful production Aston Martin ever. The ultra-light carbon fibre clamshell cuts weight, lowers the centre of gravity and expels hot air through a set of beautifully sculpted bonnet vents adorning our most potent production model to date.
Taken by its Beauty
The DBS is dominated by a breath-taking hexagonal grille, and is our most aerodynamically sophisticated production car ever. There’s genuine engineering purpose behind the splitters, side sills and Aeroblade II™ that goes far beyond their muscle-bound appearance. Most notable is the new, fixed, carbon fibre Aeroblade II™. As turbulent air flows along the body side behind the C-Pillar it is controlled and redirected by Aeroblade II™, working in conjunction with the double diffuser which accelerates air beneath the car. Whilst most cars work to reduce lift, the Aeroblade II™ and double diffuser work together to create a huge amount of true downforce, pinning the DBS to the road using 180kg of aerodynamic pressure.
A new realm of luxury
Whether you leave the decisions to the exquisite taste of our own interior designers or take that as your starting point and treat the entire interior as your own blank canvas, the DBS gives you that freedom that is the source of all true luxury.
