Aston Martin DBS Superleggera

The Aston Martin DBS Superleggera, also sold as the DBS, was a grand touring car built from 2018 to 2024 as the replacement for the second-generation Vanquish. It is based on the DB11 V12 but with a larger grille, extra air extractors, carbon fibre in major areas and a double diffuser that gives 180 kg of downforce, the highest of any series Aston Martin. The 5.2 litre twin-turbocharged V12 is rated at 725 PS and drives through a ZF eight-speed automatic with torque vectoring. The car reaches 100 km/h in 3.4 seconds and 340 km/h flat out. A Volante convertible followed in 2019, with limited editions such as the DBS 59, the OHMSS, the GT Zagato and the 499-unit DBS 770 Ultimate. The third-generation Vanquish succeeded it.
