This will even scare James Bond | Aston Martin DBX MANSORY

Style Statement (Design)

MANSORY refines Aston Martin's whole aerodynamics "in-house." This results in an attractive wide-body style in conjunction with better aerodynamics with increased downforce values for dramatically improved cornering performance. The front of the SUV has been extensively reworked for this purpose, with a fully new apron with an integrated front lip made of carbon. The front piece is completed with an ultra-light, painted carbon bonnet with extra cooling air vents in visible carbon. On the sides, dramatic MANSORY extensions continue the design language, making the SUV appear not just more powerful, but also lower and longer.

To boost downforce on the rear axle, the MANSORY engineers created a wonderfully sculpted tailgate spoiler and a matching roof spoiler, both of which are constructed completely of carbon and follow the design language of the regular tear-off edge of the tailgate. A redesigned rear apron with diffuser complements the stunning tailpipes of the sports exhaust system. Various carbon-fiber components, including as trim strips, mirror housings, and air intake trims, offer further eye-catching elements, some of which are highlighted with accents in the exclusive color "Lime Green."

 

Shoes to match (Wheels)

For the first time, MANSORY introduces the "DX.5" wheel in 10 x 24 inch (front) and 12.5x24 inch (rear) proportions, with matching 295/30R24 and 355/25R24 tyre sizes. They not only generously and methodically fill up the front and rear wheel arches, but also best mix sportiness and technological elegance. The rim color scheme was chosen to match the overall color scheme of the automobile - black and "Lime Green." It should also be noted that the new "DX.5" rim design was created to optimize brake system ventilation on the one hand, while emphasizing the car's dynamic appearance in style on the other.

 

Tempting & delicious (Interiors)

The inside is totally black, in keeping with the outside appearance. The distinctive color "Limegreen," which is used to highlight elements on the outside, can also be seen throughout the inside. This color is used for the edge of the floor mats, the seats, the center console, the ornamental stitching on the dashboard, and the sports airbag steering wheel. Finely embroidered floor mats, the use of fine visible carbon, and the covering of nearly all surfaces with the best leather are just a few of the details that add to the superbly created interior. Similarly to how MANSORY has been known for many years.

 

Exuding Sheer performance and brilliance (Performance)

The SUV's heart, a V8 twin-turbo engine, was also extensively modified by the engineers of the MANSORY Performance Department. A fully redesigned engine management system, new and bigger turbochargers, a sports air filter, and a high-performance sports exhaust system are all part of the package. The exhaust system can be offered in two forms - fully according to the customer's desires. The tailpipes in the systems differ noticeably; either they are positioned in the region of the regular rear apron opening or they end as closely spaced twin pipes in the center of the carbon rear apron.

All of these improvements result in an amazing 800 horsepower (standard: 550 hp) and an improved torque of 1.000 Nm (standard: 700 Nm) on the dynamometer rollers following its conversion at MANSORY. The associated performance stats are: Vmax 325 km/h and a sprint time of 3.8 seconds from 0 to 100 km/h.
