Aston Martin has introduced the 2027 DBX GT, a more comfort-focused version of its high-performance SUV. The GT receives revised suspension tuning, additional sound insulation and redesigned seats, but retains the twin-turbocharged V8 and performance hardware from the DBX S. First deliveries are expected in the fourth quarter of 2026.

A more understated DBX exterior

The DBX GT’s exterior changes give it a cleaner, more refined appearance. Its new double-vaned grille is available with either a bright or dark finish. The split metal vanes extend into the outer vents and incorporate the daytime running lights, creating a wider-looking front end.

A new two-piece metal side strake uses contrasting polished and satin finishes, with Aston Martin drawing inspiration from traditional watchmaking. The lower front bumper, side sills and rear diffuser are finished in body color.

Standard equipment includes new 22-inch forged wheels with a Satin Titanium diamond-turned finish and all-season tires. Aston Martin says this combination helps improve ride comfort and reduce road noise. A 23-inch wheel option is available with either Pirelli P Zero summer tires or Scorpion Zero all-season tires. At the rear, four exhaust outlets are arranged horizontally in pairs, mixing polished outer sections with satin-anodized inner sections.

Interior changes target comfort

The larger revisions are inside. Aston Martin redesigned the front and rear seats with additional cushioning, revised bolstering and new contours. Each seat cushion includes a 10.0-millimeter-thick layer of memory foam.

The rear seats have individually sculpted seating positions, extended headrests and additional bolstering. The DBX GT remains a five-seat SUV, while a panoramic glass roof is standard to add light to the rear cabin.

GT-specific upholstery is offered in monotone, duotone and tritone combinations. The interior uses semi-aniline leather, deep-pile carpeting, quilting, perforations and bespoke embroidery. Aston Martin also added sound-deadening material to the doors, wheel arches and rear cargo area, along with acoustic laminated glass for the rear side windows.

The company says these changes improve the vehicle’s “Articulation Index” by 13 percent. That measurement indicates how easily occupants can hold a conversation while the vehicle is moving.

717 horsepower remains standard

Despite its softer mission, the DBX GT keeps the DBX S’s twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8. Output stands at 717 horsepower and 664 pound-feet of torque. Aston Martin quotes a 0-60-mph time of 3.1 seconds and a top speed of 193 mph.

The powertrain receives minor recalibration, including more precise throttle control and revised shift calibration for the nine-speed wet-clutch automatic transmission. The GT also uses the DBX S’s carbon-ceramic brakes, measuring 420 millimeters at the front and 390 mm at the rear, plus a quicker steering ratio.

Its suspension has unique damper calibration and internal damper valves designed to absorb small, high-frequency impacts such as rough pavement and rumble strips while maintaining body control.

Price and availability

Aston Martin has not announced pricing for the DBX GT. The DBX S starts at $291,200, placing the GT’s expected pricing in that neighborhood. The new model expands the DBX range with an option aimed at buyers who want its performance but place greater emphasis on daily comfort.
