A few more days and Aston Martin will turn the spotlight on the new 'hot' version of its DBX luxury suv. The House of Gaydon has in fact set for next February 1st from the date of the reveal of the DBX S, an unprecedented variant equipped with a V12 (instead of the standard V8) which according to rumors reported by the British press should deliver 700 hp thus making it the ' most powerful luxury suv in the world '.


    The new model, according to AutoExpress magazine, will therefore exceed the power levels of Lamborghini Urus (650 Hp), Porsche Cayenne Turbo GT (640 Hp) and Bentley Bentayga Speed ​​(635 Hp), however, neglecting a model like the old Jeep in this ranking. Grand Cherokee Trackhawk with 717 Hp power because it does not belong to the luxury SUV category.


    While the 4.0-liter 550-hp V8 of the standard DBX is practically a customized version for Aston Martin of the well-known Mercedes AMG twin-turbo engine - and used with 510 hp calibration also in the DB11 and in the 'base' Vantage - the power unit that Debuting under the hood of the DBX S is expected to be the 5.2-liter V12 (equally twin turbo) which was developed by Aston Martin's own engineers.


    This engine is already assembled in collaboration with the House of the Three-pointed Star - in the German Aston Martin Engine Plant (Amep) in Cologne and has long been used with different outputs in the DBS Superleggera, in the DB11 itself and in the V12 re-edition of the Vantage.

In this last case, the power output should be 700 Hp, therefore the same that will make the DBX S a real 'bomb' on the road and off-road.


    No official images of the DBX S exist at the moment, but AutoExpress photographers surprised a camouflaged prototype that highlights some differences - such as the much wider grille with grille instead of the standard car's horizontal slats in favor of a black mesh.

The front bumper has also been redesigned around the new grille, with a single deep air intake that extends across the entire width and rises to the sides of the grille.

Obviously, the trim, brakes and tires will also be adequate for the highest performance.
