Force of Nature

The new Aston Martin DBX 707 is a performance SUV with the soul of a supercar.

Aston Martin is a name steeped in cultural history, thanks in no small part to the legendary DB5. Over the years, however, the British marque has explored new ground, most notably with its first SUV, the DBX. At first glance, a large luxury SUV may seem an unlikely fit for a brand celebrated for elegant sports cars, yet the DBX has unlocked new markets for Aston Martin, including India.

For 2025, the company has streamlined the range, retaining only the more popular DBX 707 while comprehensively updating the interiors. The highlights include a new 10.25-inch in-house-developed touchscreen and a larger 12.3-inch digital driver display. The interface is slick and responsive, with Aston Martin wisely retaining physical controls through knurled switchgear and tactile buttons.
