Aston Martin DBX From Mansory Is A Mad 800-HP SUV
by AutoExpert | 4 November, 2021
Aston Martin DBX has only had one motor choice since its 2020 launch: a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 derived from Mercedes-AMG that produces 542 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque. Aston Martin's rivals, like the Lamborghini Urus, have more than 600 hp, so there's still potential for advancement in the Aston Martin SUV.
Something is about to change, though. Aston Martin will unveil a new mild-hybrid DBX later this year, backed by a high-performance model including over 600 hp.
For those who can't wait, Mansory has just delivered a significant performance and design upgrade for Aston Martin DBX, that helps Lamborghini Urus appear innocent. Mansory increased the SUV's twin-turbo V8's output to 800 metric hp (789 hp SAE) and 590 lb-ft by modifying the ECU and inserting bigger turbos, a sports air filter, and a high-performance sports exhaust system comes in two configurations.
Mansory's DBX will go from 0 to 62 mph in 3.8 secs and reach a top speed of 201 mph, which is quicker than the Lamborghini Urus. For comparison, the factory DBX sprints in 4.3 secs and reaches a max speed of 181 mph. The tuner has also produced an impressive carbon fiber body package for the Aston Martin DBX. Mansory has installed a new front apron with a carbon fiber front lip.
The DBX now has a redesigned lightweight carbon fiber hood with additional cooling vents and flared fenders. There are two exhaust styles. A pair of noticeable spoilers fitted to the rear and roof additionally greatly improve downforce. Mansory's DBX is finished in Black Metallic with Limegreen highlights for a nasty look.
A set of customized DX rounds up the exterior upgrades. 10x24-inch front wheels and 12.5x24-inch back wheels coated in dark and lime green to complement the body. Lime green elements on the border of the floor mats, the seating, the center console, and embroidery on the dash and steering wheel, accented with leather and exposed carbon areas, are used throughout the interior.
Although pricing information has not been released by Mansory, this monstrous piece of equipment is likely to be outrageously costly.
