There is a heavy burden on the Aston Martin DBX: The SUV is supposed to flush urgently needed money into the coffers of the British car manufacturer and also overtake the Porsche Cayenne.
Gaydon - all-wheel drive, AMG-V8-Biturbo with 405 kW (550 PS) and a maximum torque of 700 Newton meters: the Aston Martin DBX is supposed to steal customers from the Porsche Cayenne . There are few opponents on the road: 100 km / h are reached in 4.5 seconds and the speedometer needle continues to storm up to 291 km / h. The consumption is accordingly at 14.3 liters per 100 kilometers. If you put your sneakers on the noble crossover with “Sport” and “Sport Plus”, the 48 volt roll stabilization goes a long way, and the accelerator pedal characteristic and the gearshift are noticeably sportier. It is pleasant that the steering is more direct, but does not pretend the sportiness with excessive restoring forces. Same goes for thatChassis that cushions tighter but not stiff and wooden.
Only in "Sport" and "Sport plus" coming AMG Rowdy genes by declutching volleys by a louder combustion noise respectively. This is even helpful when turning, as the blinker of the Aston Martin DBX knocks like a poltergeist. * This annoying tone does not really go with the chic interior, which is equipped with the finest leather, which, if desired, has the design of a Budapest shoe. All that remains is the space. The British worked through the specifications perfectly. Because in the Aston Martin DBX four adults find enough space and the trunk swallows a decent 632 liters, but the loading hatch is a bit narrow. * 24auto.de is part of the Ippen-Digital network
