Aston Martin Unveils DBX GT as a Luxury‑Focused Variant

Retaining the DBX S’s 4.0‑litre twin‑turbo V8, the GT focuses on chassis, acoustic, cabin upgrades to raise everyday comfort.

Overview

  • Aston Martin revealed the DBX GT on Sept. 30 as a new, more refined member of the DBX range with first customer deliveries scheduled for Q4 2026.
  • The GT keeps the DBX S powertrain: the 4.0‑litre twin‑turbo V8 with roughly 717 hp and 664 lb‑ft paired to a nine‑speed automatic and the same sub‑3.3s 0–60/0–62 mph and ~191–193 mph top speed figures reported for the S.
  • Targeted chassis and acoustic work includes GT‑specific damper valves, a stiffer transmission mount, revised valved exhaust with a discrete GT tune, acoustic laminated glass and extra sound deadening to improve ride comfort and reduce cabin noise.
  • Interior changes add a 10mm memory‑foam layer to the front seats, two sculpted outer rear seats, semi‑aniline leather, deep‑pile carpets and bespoke trim work to shift the cabin toward ultra‑luxury territory.
  • Aston Martin has not published final pricing but outlets expect a DBX S–level price (roughly £210,000); the GT is positioned to lift margins and broaden DBX appeal after weaker 2025 sales.
