Aston Martin DBX GT: A Quieter, Softer SUV with 717 HP

Aston Martin introduces the DBX GT, a comfort-focused variant of its high-performance SUV, offering a more refined experience alongside the existing DBX S.

The DBX GT retains the same 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 engine producing 717 bhp, enabling 0-60 mph in 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 193 mph. Tuning prioritizes comfort and reduced cabin noise.

Suspension is recalibrated with new damper valves to absorb road imperfections. It features standard 22-inch wheels with all-season tires for ride quality and noise reduction.

Visually, the GT adopts a more restrained aesthetic with a new double-vaned grille and body-colored lower sections, creating a subtler presence.

The interior receives comfort upgrades, including redesigned front and rear seats with added memory foam cushioning and reshaped bolsters.

Extensive sound-deadening measures and acoustic laminated glass are implemented for a quieter cabin.

Powertrain calibration is revised for smoother gear changes and manageable throttle response. The exhaust system is retuned for a subdued sound.

Deliveries for the Aston Martin DBX GT are expected to begin in the fourth quarter of 2026.
