Aston Martin DBX GT joins the lineup with refinements

For those who think that the DBX707 and the DBX S are too much to handle, literal or otherwise, Aston Martin is offering the DBX GT, a more relaxed version of the DBX S. According to the official statement, the DBX GT blends ultra-luxury craftsmanship, refined comfort and effortless performance. This is not a limited edition model, but one of the available variants of the DBX lineup. Order books are open, and the first deliveries are expected to commence in Q4 2026.

Visually, the DBX GT looks relatively relaxed compared with the DBX S; it doesn’t wear an aggressive bodykit like the S model. However, you still get that roof-integrated rear wing. Also, notice that the exhaust pipes are mounted horizontally versus vertical mounting in the DBX S. And of course, the suspension has been tuned for comfort. The dampers have been calibrated for enhanced ride comfort over poor surfaces while also maintaining body control during dynamic driving. The spring rate also changes depending on the selected drive mode. As standard, the DBX GT rides on 22-inch wheels with road-noise-reducing all-season tyres, but for those who are a bit insane, 23-inch options are also available. Braking power comes from carbon-ceramic rotors measuring 420 mm at the front and 390 mm at the rear.

Inside, the seating is pretty much the same but is claimed to be more comfortable. A 10 mm thick memory foam layer has been added to the cushion structure to enhance seating plushness, while sculptural changes to the bolsters increase lateral support and comfort. Enhanced noise insulation is one of the other key highlights. A Bowers & Wilkins audio system is also part of the package.

The DBX GT is powered by the same 4.0L V8 biturbo motor supplied by the folks at Affalterbach, pumping out 535 kW (727 metric hp) and 900 Nm (664 lb-ft). The official 0-100 km/h (62 mph) sprint time also remains unchanged at 3.3 seconds. The top speed also remains unchanged at 310 km/h (193 mph). What’s more interesting is that the spec sheet mentions the same kerb weight of 2,245 kg (4,949 lbs). Aston Martin claims that the exhaust tune is unique to the DBX GT.
