GAYDON, U.K. (October 1, 2026) – Aston Martin has introduced the DBX GT, a new version of its SUV that puts ultra-luxury craftsmanship, comfort and refinement first while keeping the performance the DBX is known for. It joins the performance-focused DBX S in the range, offering a more understated design, a reworked interior and a quieter cabin, along with the same twin-turbo V8.

“DBX GT is aimed at customers who prefer assured elegance over sporting aggression and demand a higher degree of luxury. By refining the visual drama and elevating the interior with new elements of craftsmanship, the DBX GT delivers a true ultra-luxury experience; one which comes with no sacrifice in performance.”

– Adrian Hallmark, CEO, Aston Martin

Quiet Luxury Outside
Where the DBX S makes its case with assertive styling, the DBX GT relies on luxury detailing and high-quality materials. Its signature feature is a new double-vaned grille, offered in a bright or dark finish, whose split metal vanes continue into the outer vents and incorporate the daytime running lights, giving the front end a wider, more substantial look. Along the sides, a two-piece metal side strake pairs polished and satin finishes, a technique inspired by traditional watchmaking. The lower front bumper, sills and rear diffuser are painted to match the body as standard.

The DBX GT rides on new 22″ forged wheels with a Satin Titanium diamond-turned finish and all-season tires, chosen to improve ride comfort and reduce road noise. Optional 23″ wheels are available for a more assertive look. At the rear, new quad exhaust finishers are set side by side in horizontal pairs, with bright polished outers and satin anodized inners. They signal that the DBX GT shares the DBX S’s title as the world’s most powerful pure internal-combustion SUV.

“Aston Martin is uniquely placed to combine ultra-luxury and performance. All our cars combine both, but each car finds a different balance, both visually and dynamically. With DBX GT we have taken a more discreet approach. One which downplays its outright performance and instead exudes a quiet charisma. Elegantly understated, yet safe in the knowledge it possesses the same performance and class-leading dynamics expected of a DBX.”

– Marek Reichman, EVP and Chief Creative Officer, Aston Martin

A More Comfortable, Crafted Cabin
Inside, the DBX GT gets redesigned front and rear seats with more cushioning, reshaped bolsters for better lateral support, and a 0.4″ layer of memory foam in the cushion. A new individual rear-seat layout gives rear passengers two sculpted seats that match the design of the fronts, while the car keeps its five-seat capability. A panoramic glass roof is standard.

The DBX GT’s craftsmanship shows in anodized metal for the drive-mode controller and secondary switchgear, semi-aniline leather, and deep-pile floor mats. GT-specific monotone, duotone and tritone color combinations are offered, finished with quilting, perforation and an embroidery pattern unique to the DBX GT. Each front seat takes more than four and a half hours of craftsmanship, with about 2,267′ of thread and 3,297 perforation holes.

Aston Martin also set out to make the cabin quieter. Improvements to the body structure and cabin sealing, carefully placed sound-deadening material in the doors, wheel arches and cargo area, acoustic laminated rear side glass and deep-pile carpets all reduce road, wind and traffic noise. The result is a 13% improvement in Articulation Index, the industry measure of how easy it is to hold a conversation on the move, whether talking with passengers, taking a phone call or listening to the Bowers & Wilkins audio system.

Effortless Performance
The DBX GT uses the same bespoke 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 introduced in the DBX S. Turbocharger technology shared with the Valhalla supercar helps it produce 717 hp and 664 lb-ft of torque. Like the DBX S, it reaches 60 mph in 3.1 seconds and has a top speed of 193 mph. It also shares the DBX S’s carbon-ceramic brakes, measuring 16.5″ front and 15.4″ rear, and its quicker steering ratio, while the turning circle remains 39.4′.

The chassis gets its own changes. Retuned dampers with new internal valves smooth out rough surfaces and rumble strips while keeping body control intact, and the spring rate adapts to the selected drive mode, shifting roll-stiffness balance through corners to sharpen grip and steering response. Lessons from the Valhalla brought a stiffer transmission mount bushing, and two new longitudinal dampers between the body and the rear subframe make the car feel more solid over potholes, sharp crests and hard compressions. The standard 22″ wheels wear Pirelli Scorpion Zero All-Season tires. The optional 23″ wheels come with Pirelli P Zero summer or Scorpion Zero All-Season tires.

The throttle pedal has been recalibrated for more precise, proportional response, and the nine-speed wet-clutch automatic has been tuned for smoother, more consistent shifts. A dedicated exhaust tune uses double mixing of the gas flow in the rear muffler to remove harsh metallic frequencies. It stays discreet in GT mode, and Sport and Sport+ restore its full voice.

“The challenge with DBX GT was achieving meaningful improvements in comfort and refinement in everyday use cases, but keeping the same class-leading reserves of performance and handling we have achieved with the DBX S. This was delivered via a combination of small but significant hardware upgrades together with a targeted suite of calibration changes to the chassis and powertrain. The results are highly satisfying; noticeable reduction in unwanted noise intrusion, greater isolation from road imperfections and a tangible uplift in refinement, but with the breathtaking performance, handling poise and driver connection for which the DBX is renowned.”
