Aston Martin DBS Superleggera · 2018–2023 · Buying guide

DBS Superleggera.
The flagship super-GT.

The DBS Superleggera is Aston Martin's flagship grand tourer at the top of the range, built from 2018. It uses the brand's own 5.2 twin-turbo V12 making 715 hp and 900 Nm, paired with a rear-mounted ZF eight-speed automatic. The Superleggera name nods to the collaboration with Italy's Carrozzeria Touring and underlines the extensive use of carbon fibre. It is the most powerful, most capable GT in the brand's classic range before the new-generation V12 era.

Versions

Which version to choose?

DBS Superleggera Coupe

The classic closed body. The 5.2 V12 at 715 hp, a stiffer structure and the full super-GT character. The most common and usually most practical version day to day.

DBS Superleggera Volante

The soft-top convertible. The same performance, an open grand-tourer character and a more occasional nature. Usually a little rarer than the coupe.

DBS 770 Ultimate

The send-off limited edition with output raised to 770 hp. The most powerful, rarest DBS, bought mainly as a collector car.

FAQ

DBS — FAQ

Does the DBS Superleggera have a V8 or a V12?

The DBS Superleggera uses Aston Martin's own 5.2 twin-turbo V12 making 715 hp. That makes it the flagship, most powerful GT in the brand's classic range.

What does the Superleggera name mean?

Superleggera is Italian for very light and nods to the Carrozzeria Touring partnership. In the DBS it underlines the extensive carbon-fibre bodywork that cuts weight and sharpens performance.

How does the DBS differ from the DB11?

The DBS Superleggera is the top-of-range flagship: the 5.2 V12 at 715 hp, more carbon and a sharper tune. The DB11 sits below it, also offered with the lesser V8, as a more all-round everyday GT.
