An endless appetite for powerful and expensive SUVs among buyers, especially in China and the US, may have forced Aston Martin to think of a bigger version of the vehicle. According to reports, two possible options are currently being considered. The first one is an elegant coupe-like version of the DBX while the second version will be an SUV with an increased base for seven seats.
The DBX may also receive a hybrid V6 developed by Aston Martin engineers, which is intended to replace the V8 from Mercedes-AMG. It was first announced for the Valhalla mid-engine supercar.

Last year, Aston Martin launched the DBX SUV with a 542-horsepower, twin-turbocharged V-8 engine borrowed from the DB11 coupe. It can generate516 pound-feet of torque and can hit zero to 60 mph in 4.3 seconds, with a top speed of 181 mph. That makes the DBX luxury SUV faster than some of its competitors like the Rolls-Royce Cullinan, yet a bit slower than Lamborghini Urus, which can reach 60 mph in three seconds.

Aston Martin’s five-seat SUV looks vaguely similar to many other recent debuts, as if it were a composite sketch of the Ford Mustang Mach-E, the Jaguar F-Type, and the Urus. But it packs distinctive air vents in the hood, sculpted sides, and a rear end stacked up high in the back, with a small roof spoiler and a curved line of taillights swooping across it. A full-length panoramic roof floods the interior cabin with light.
