Looks pretty good but bigger grill, no v12, 697hp v8, 9 speed gearbox, $232k base is +$70k over base version, 0-60 3.1 sec

Th front clip looks better but don’t think I’ll trade up yet since I’m still waiting for someone to come up with a tune. 3.1 is pretty quick though. My base price was just under $177k so a $55k difference.

 

Front is starting to look very Hyundai like now.

Seems under powered at 700hp isn't it? Weistec will take your m178 all the way to 900hp; https://www.weistec.com/w-4-turbo-upgrade-m178.html
Koenigsegg is able to get 1340hp from their twin turbo 5l V8 and is emissions legal in the US.

Missed opportunity to use the V12.

 

The exterior changes seem subtle. Then again, I don't see a lot of regular DBXes around. I thought this still uses a M177?

Keep seeing Stroll giving interviews. Is Tobias still around?

 

Decent interview with Tobias and talks some AM future plans. v12 is around for another 4-5yrs until electrics....no v12 dbx, won't fit...no new info on the v12 vantage..but this comment is interesting...

A "next level sports car" is coming from Aston Martin next year, likely meaning a version of one of the current DB11-based models. Moers said this car will kick off the connected car era for the automaker and launch its new infotainment system, which is being designed in house. Aston Martin currently uses Mercedes-Benz's last-gen infotainment system with a touchpad.

IMHO if they update the vantage interior with some front/rear tweaks and expand the line up to base (ie F1) ~525hp, "S" ~600hp v8 from dbx, ~700hp v12 that could be pretty sweet line-up...

 

Too bad AML is dragging their feet on the Lagonda line up. The All-Terrain is one of the most attractive and compelling designs they've come up with in a decade plus.
