Aston Martin DBX707 Enters Production, First Customer Car Is Built

The super-SUV will be shipped to 50 countries around the world.

The Aston Martin DBX family’s most powerful member is now in production. The DBX707 is put together at the brand’s St Athan facility in Wales, which produces all variations of the super-SUV. The improved performance DBX’s first client example is now ready to be delivered to its new owner.

The DBX707 made its official premiere in February of this year, grabbing headlines with its blazing 0-60 mph (0-96 km/h) performance in under 3.1 seconds. Its name originates from the 697 horsepower produced by a tweaked version of Mercedes-4.0-liter AMG’s twin-turbo V8 found under the hood.

Aston Martin engaged more than 100 new qualified automotive technicians to work on the DBX707, which is hand-built. The standard DBX was the first Welsh-made production automobile in in 50 years when it rolled off the assembly lines at St Athan. The newest SUV in the range will be sold in more than 50 countries around the world.

“We are ecstatic to see the very first model built,” Michael Straughan, Aston Martin’s COO, stated.

The British automaker proudly says the initial reaction from customers and media has been “tremendous.” This is impressive considering the starting price of the DBX707 in the United States is $232,000 and that doesn’t include destination fees. The first customer examples are expected to be delivered very soon.

The DBX707 is much more than just an upgraded engine, though. There’s also a new nine-speed wet-clutch gearbox a modified rear e-diff with a shorter 3:27 final drive for better acceleration. The all-wheel drive is still the same automatic system as seen in the regular DBX, though different tweaks provide better traction in cornering. Last but not least, carbon-ceramic disc brakes measuring 16.5 inches in front and 15.4 inches at the back clamped by six-piston calipers provide the stopping power.
