This is the new Aston Martin DB12 S

Aston Martin has introduced a new and more aggressive version of its luxury sports GT model – the DB12 S. Although the successor to the famous DB line no longer uses a V12 engine, the new version shows that the British brand still knows how to produce a car that combines luxury and pure driving passion.

Under the hood is the familiar 4.0-liter V8 biturbo engine, but now boosted to 700 horsepower and 800 Nm of torque. That's 20 horsepower more than the standard DB12, enough to accelerate to 100 km/h in just 3.4 seconds, while the top speed remains at 325 km/h.

Engineers have further optimized the Launch Control system, according to which gear changes are now up to 50 percent faster, while throttle response is more precise thanks to the new drive-by-wire system with a more progressive pedal movement.

The interior, still hand-crafted, has been given a sportier look. There are new sports seats, Alcantara and leather upholstery, and a red rotary knob as a new central detail. Customers can also choose from carbon seats, an Alcantara-wrapped steering wheel, and a Bowers & Wilkins audio system.

The Aston Martin DB12 S will be available as a coupe and convertible, and orders have already started, although Aston Martin is not publicly disclosing prices. First deliveries are scheduled for early 2026.Indeksonline/
