Aston Martin revealed the new DBX707, saying it is the most powerful and fastest luxury SUV in the world, and that it comes with a unique blend of powerful performance, superior dynamics, unmistakable design and sheer luxury.
The Aston Martin DBX 707 is built to its own standards, unmatched by any other SUV. With this, it intends to win the car three awards for the fastest, most powerful and best-handling car in the world ever.
Inspired by the design of the class-leading DBX V8 that is both dynamic and an enjoyable driver experience, the DBX 707 has been masterfully built on these authentic sporting attributes, with the aim of enhancing every possibility in the new car that enhances performance and increases fun. Driving and being present on the road.
The Aston Martin DBX 707 is powered by a 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine. Also new in the car is the 9-speed automatic transmission with a wet clutch. It is able to manage significantly increased torque loads compared to an ordinary automatic torque converter.
This high-performance transmission increases the engine output to 707 hp and 900 Nm of torque, 157 hp and 200 Nm more than the DBX model.
The adoption of the new wet-clutch transmission brings more benefits. Most gear changes are noticeably faster, the feel of the change is immediate and direct, giving the driver an increased sense of control and responsiveness.
The starting power of the DBX 707 has also been improved, as it accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in 3.3 seconds.
The standard carbon-ceramic brake setup, measuring 420 mm at the front and 390 mm at the rear, is an integral part of Aston Martin’s most powerful SUV suite.
These CCB discs are gripped by 6-piston calipers, resulting in an unsprung weight reduction of 40.5 kg.
These modifications improve pedal feel and brake response for greater precision and driver confidence.
In addition to improved brake cooling by drawing air from the main cooling intake and from the floor, high-performance brake pads provide excellent traction consistency across a wide range of temperatures.
22-inch wheels and wheels come standard (on select Sport models), with an optional 23-inch forged alloy wheel in black or satin black with diamond accents.
In contrast, the use of a 23-inch wheel has dynamic advantages, as the larger diameter tire provides improved steering response, better initial body control and improved lap times.
The DBX 707 also features a new version of the e-diff rear limited-slip differential to handle the full 900Nm of torque, and has a (shorter) final drive ratio of 3.27 compared to 3.07 for the DBX V8. .
This helps the DBX 707’s ability to drive into lower gears and enhances gear response, while maintaining the efficiency and launch precision that the transmission provides.
Front-to-rear torque distribution remains fully automatic, with the ability to send up to 100% of torque to the rear axle on demand.
Precise electronic gear calibration ensures that the car has the agility in corners, the sporty feel and dynamic character of a sports car. Incorporating chassis and powertrain technology to create the best handling stability and balance, striving to maintain the optimum combination of traction and agility at all times.
The car was also equipped with a new damper valve and a re-calibrated dynamic spring volume shifter to improve body control and steering response.
Combined with a revised lower console that houses the new drive mode selection switches, and instead of having to enter a submenu within the infotainment system, the driver has instant control of the key dynamic modes and settings.
This includes buttons dedicated to the suspension mode, ESP, manual gear selector mode – which is now manual like a sports car, instead of returning to automatic mode – and the active exhaust switch, which opens the valves of the new all-wheel sports exhaust system without the need to do so in drive mode. sports.
In keeping with its comprehensive engineering upgrades, both the exterior and interior have undergone a comprehensive design revamp.
The sporty look continues inside, with sport seats as standard (comfort seats are available as an option at no cost).
All seat options come with 16-way electric adjustment as well as front and rear heating as standard.
The interior features a dark chrome finish for switches as standard.
