Exclusive to DBX S are a series of optional lightweighting innovations that bring not only assertive looks and sporting character but also remove up to 47kg of mass to deliver supreme dynamic capability. The 3.8 square-metre carbon roof is the largest ever fitted to an Aston Martin. It removes over 18kg of mass from the highest point of DBX meaning a lowered centre of gravity and enhanced dynamic reactions. 23” magnesium wheels liberate up to 19kg of unsprung mass and rotational inertia to improve steering feel, linear predictability and tracking over undulating surfaces to enhance already class-leading DBX steering. The carbon aero winglets around the DRLs and huge single-piece carbon rear panel save another 7kg. Combined with an exclusive and optional gloss black honeycomb polycarbonate grille, which removes 3kg further mass, these elements work together to help further improve weight distribution and handling.
