If you're a super spy who's now got a family but still need to stay brand-loyal, the 2020 Aston Martin DBX is just what you need.
If you're a super spy who's now got a family but still need to stay brand-loyal, the 2020 Aston Martin DBX is just what you need.
Unveiled just a few hours ago at Aston Martin Kuala Lumpur, the DBX is the British marque's first attempt at a full-fat, five-seater SUV.
We'll walk you through the car and you let us know if it's fit for Bond and family.
Behind the instantly-recognisable 'DB grille' is a 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 producing 550 PS and 700 Nm.
Tipping the scales at 2,245 kg, you might think its a lumbering house on wheels and those numbers are just hot air. But that's where you'd be mistaken.
0-100 km/h is dusted in a claimed 4.5 seconds. Pin the go-pedal and it'll slam through 9 gears as it reaches its 290 km/h top speed.
And if you so choose, it'll let you get muddy too - since the DBX's all-wheel drive system uses an active center differential and an electronically-controlled rear limited slip differential.
Given that its pretty much priced like a house, the handcrafted interior is a nice place to be in, thanks to gratuitious use of Bridge of Weir-branded leather and premium materials.
Bootspace is 632 litres and there's also 40:20:40 split-fold rear seats. Now who said fast cars can't be practical?
Also standard is a 12.3-inch fully digital instrument cluster and a 10.25-inch infotainment screen. Android Auto and Apple CarPlay are supported out of the box.
Your chauffeur and you can enjoy blaring Top 80s Hits through the 800-watt, 14-speaker, Harman/Samsung setup.
There's ADAS - ACC and LKA making their Aston Martin debuts here - alongside standard-fare stuff like a 360-degree camera and automatic high beams.
Prices start at RM 818,000 before duties and options. What do you say, fit for a super spy?
