The Aston Martin DBX GT has joined the British marque’s SUV line-up as a more luxury-oriented derivative alongside the more overtly sporty DBX S, with exterior styling and interior appointments to reflect the new chassis setup aimed at providing more compliance without losing driver engagement.

Said to deliver “the ultimate in luxury and refinement” from the marque, the DBX GT wears a visually restrained exterior relative to the DBX S, somewhat alike the approach taken by rival marque Bentley with the Bentayga S and Mulliner variants.

Headline figures from its 4.0 litre biturbo V8 petrol engine are unchanged from the DBX S, with 727 PS and 900 Nm sent to all four wheels through the nine-speed automatic transmission, enabling the same 0-96 km/h time of 3.1 seconds while top speed is 309 km/h.
