Aston Martin has unveiled a 697-horsepower turbocharged V8 engine-powered version of the British luxury brand's first SUV dubbed the DBX707, with a base price of $232,000.
The company claims as "the world's most powerful luxury SUV," based on its subjective view of what a "luxury SUV" is.
Aston Martin lists its competitors such as Bentley, Lamborghini, and Rolls-Royce, high-end brands SUVs, all of which cost over $200,000.
However, it doesn’t include the Tesla Model X Plaid, which starts at a mere $126,000 but is far more powerful at 1,020 horsepower, as part of its competitive set.
The DBX707 has more power than the 4.0-liter V8 Lamborghini Urus, which can produce up to 641 horsepower, the Bentley Bentayga Speed, which has a 626-horsepower 12-cylinder engine, and the Rolls-Royce Cullinan with its 563-horsepower V12.
Aston Martin promises that the DBX707, which will go from zero to 60 miles an hour in just 3.1 seconds, will be more than just fast as it would feature sports-car style handling.
The DBX707's engine is similar to the standard 542-horsepower Aston Martin DBX, but with unique engine tuning and different turbochargers that force air into the engine to help it generate more power.
The DBX707 also has a different nine-speed transmission, which uses a clutch, similar to a manual transmission, rather than the more common fluid-driven automatic transmission in the base model.
The DBX707 will go into production by the end of March 2022.
