DBS

Truly great luxury sports cars are rare. In a world often diminished by mediocrity, genuine design innovation and engineering accomplishment are available only to the discerning few.

Seductively powerful and exquisitely finished, the Aston Martin DBS is the ultimate blend of refined performance and minimalist luxury.

Outstanding power with supreme control: Aston Martin introduces its ultimate luxury sports car, the Aston Martin DBS. The most potent production Aston Martin ever made, the DBS represents the synthesis of raw power, race-bred technology and design excellence. Powered by a hand-built V12 engine producing 380 kW (510 bhp/517 PS), the DBS delivers breathtaking power and performance. Beneath the flowing lines of the lightweight bodywork, the DBS’s components have been honed to create an exhilarating driving experience: taut, dynamic and monumentally fast, but always highly controlled.

 

Striking beauty with an underlying strength: the dynamic abilities of the DBS are made explicit through the muscular elegance of its bodywork. Crafted from aluminium and carbon-fibre, every surface, curve, line and crease has a function, expressing the car’s potency, performance, agility and speed before the start button has even been deployed. The deep spoilers, flared wheel arches and essential scoops and vents convey pure athleticism, without compromising a quality that is integral to every Aston Martin: beauty.

The DBS is a machine with soul, created for the open road. As well as offering outstanding performance, the DBS is a luxurious sports car in the classic mould, a sporting two-seater that offers refinement, comfort and an unrivalled place to be for fast, elegant travelling.

The DBS is a technological tour-deforce wrapped in an exquisite body. The combination of modern materials and traditional skills is an essential element of the Aston Martin experience. In the DBS, the fusion of power, beauty and soul is without equal.

The DBS embodies pure elegance with the raw power of Aston Martin’s racing heritage. Using technology developed in competition, the DBS is a direct descendant of the DBR9 — a thoroughbred race car which has won many of the world’s greatest GT endurance race titles and most recently the GT1 class at the 2007 Le Mans 24 hours.

The unmistakable form of an Aston Martin, with flowing curves, complex surfaces and an unrivalled sculptural beauty; the DBS is every inch a classic Aston Martin, from the hand-finished grille to the carbon-fibre rear diffuser. The aerodynamic excellence of the bodywork is unsullied by superfluous spoilers or wings, allowing the lines to run cleanly from bonnet to boot lid.

The design of the DBS conveys the car’s enormous potential, with a seductive flow that incorporates aggressive detailing and a powerful stance. Like a well toned athlete in a figure-hugging suit, the bodywork of the DBS is a tight wrapping on the muscle that lies beneath, expressed in the taut lines and heavily sculpted flanks.

Low, purposeful and sleek, the DBS communicates performance and agility. Despite its unmistakable silhouette and muscular posture, the DBS is also the model of stylish discretion, with perfect proportions that create a sophisticated and desirable statement.

The definitive luxury sports car offers more than performance, beauty and comfort. It offers dynamic and aesthetic purity, an exquisite interior and a driving experience unsurpassed by any other car. With its race-car roots and luxury appointments, the Aston Martin DBS is just such a car.

A 6.0-litre V12 powered, race-bred two-seater shaped by the aerodynamic demands of high performance, the Aston Martin DBS marries beautifully hand-finished materials with the very latest in performance technology. Its hand-built V12 engine produces 380 kW (510 bhp/517 PS), making it one of the most potent production Aston Martins ever made. Every line, crease and curve conveys the enormous potential of the DBS, a seductive blend of refinement and raw power. A combination of elegant design, innovative manufacturing processes, race-derived materials and components and Aston Martin’s unrivalled hand-build expertise makes the DBS a luxury sports car without equal.
