I t s beaut y leaves no room for doubt . I t s power cannot be reasoned with.

The new DBS Superleggera has arr ived.

Unques t ionably, DBS Superleggera s i t s at the pinnacle of the A s ton Mar t in produc t ion

range. I t i s both a shining l ight express ing the mos t beaut i ful automot ive ar t and, at the same

t ime, a dark and menacing shadow of brutal,unequivocal s t reng th. I t i s this f ine blend of

seemingly opposing t rai t s that makes theDBS Superleggera the absolute A s ton Mar t in.

Aggress ive, yet beaut i ful. Super l ightweight , yet power ful ly s t rong. A commanding

presence, yet lav ishly f inished.

Throughout our his tor y, the DBS nameplate has s ignif ied the utmos t in elegance and

speed, comfor t and per formance. The rebir th of the new DBS Superleggera has produced the pures t embodiment of A s ton Mar t in in i t s mos t remarkable form – a met iculous ly handcraf ted Grand Tourer with beaut y and per formance in

equal measure. No frac t ion of i t i s compromised.

The DBS Superleggera wil l leave you in awe.I t s beaut y i s absolute.

For over half a century, the name DBS has meant jus t one thing: the ul t imate produc t ion A s ton Mar t in. A DBS is a dis t il led concentrate of all that has made As ton Mar t in not jus t one of the mos t coveted brands in the automot ive sphere, but in a l l f ie lds of endeavour, r ight around the world.

In 1967 the f ir s t DBS brought new s t andards of grace and luxury to Grand Touring , and with the arr ival of a V8 engine in 1969, another level of per formance too.

Fas t- forward to the 21s t centur y and a new kind of DBS broke cover in 2008, packing a V12 with over 500bhp, and looks that made i t the per fec t companion for the world’s most famous secret agent .

Now the DBS name ha s re turned, but thi s t ime with 715bhp at i t s disposal. But for the f ir s t t ime, the DBS badge si t s alongside another iconic As ton Mar t in name: ‘Super leggera’. Fir s t seen on the 1959 DB4, the name comes with the promise of super lightweight const ruc t ion techniques focussed on providing a driving experience like no other. I t i s a promise the DBS Superleggera keeps in ful l .

Convention says form and funct ion are opposing interest s. The DBS Superleggera is here to prove other wise. The shape i s unmis t akably A s ton Mar t in, but s t ronger, broader and more muscular than ever, not at a s t ylis t ’s whim but to cool and cont ro l the mos t power ful produc t ion A s ton Mar t in in our hi s tor y.

The DBS Super leg gera i s an aerodynamic mas terpiece, commanding and exploit ing the air f lowing over i t s sur faces. I t bends i t to i t s wil l, split s and curves it , at t rac t s and repels it according to i t s need. And when the f ines t designer s and engineers harness such a power ful force of nature, sheer, unadulterated beaut y i s the resul t .

Viewed from ahead the DBS Superleggera i s dominated by a breath- t aking hexagonal gr i l le, combining a sense of unbounded s t reng th with the mos t natural beaut y. This set s the v isual agenda for the ent ire car while s imult aneously feeding the insat iable appet i te for oxygen of the might y 715bhp engine.

Behind it , the ult ra-light carbon f ibre clamshell bonnet would look a s at home displayed in a sculpture gal ler y a s i t does adorning our mos t potent produc t ion model to date. But we never do any thing jus t for show: here the carbon f ibre cut s weight , lowers the cent re of gravi t y and expels hot air through a set of beaut i ful ly sculpted bonnet vent s .

At the back, nothing less than a quar tet of mat te black exhaust s will suf f ice to unleash the peerless sound of the V12 to the out side world providing an unforget table experience to those both inside and out of the DBS Superleggera.

The DBS Super leg gera i s our mos t aerodynamical ly sophis t icated produc t ion

car ever. There’s genuine engineering purpose behind the split ters, side sills and Aeroblade II™ that

goes far beyond their muscle-bound appearance.The inf luence of these fully func t ional component s

i s fe l t ever ywhere, making the car more s t able, agi le and, of course, yet more beaut i ful.

At the front, the carbon f ibre split ter behaves a s i t s name sugges t s, ensuring precisely the

r ight propor t ion of air f low is direc ted through the g r i l le to cool the eng ine and under the

car to feed the double dif fuser at the rear.

At the side a s tunning new mult i - louvred duc t has been created not s imply as a s ignature s t y ling

cue, but to ex t rac t turbulent air f rom the wheel arch and prevent i t creat ing unwanted ‘l i f t ’ at

the f ront of the car, while pronounced s ide s i l l scont rol the air f low along the body of the car.

Perhaps the mos t not ab le aerodynamic dev ice i s the new, f ixed, carbon f ibre

Aeroblade II™. As turbulent air f lows along the body s ide behind the C-Pi l lar i t i s cont rol led and redirec ted by Aeroblade I I™, work ing in

conjunc t ion with the double dif fuser which accelerates air beneath the car. Whils t most cars

work to reduce lif t , the Aeroblade II™ and double dif fuser work together to create a huge amount of

t rue downforce, pinning the DBS Superleggera to the road using 180kg of aerodynamic pressure.

This incredible combinat ion t ransforms s tabilit yand handling , inspir ing dr iver conf idence.

Typical ly a s a car get s fa s ter, i t requires more cooling , larger brakes and s t ronger suspension, which inevit ably resul t s in increased weight . The DBS Superleggera beg s to dif fer. Natural ly i t has been upgraded in al l areas required to handle i t s phenomenal per formance, but not by merely adding more of the same, ins tead using the f ines t , s t ronges t l ightweight materials . With the option to fur ther enhance the lightweight nature of the car by specif ying a carbon f ibre roof, roof s t rakes, mirror caps, bonnet louvres and side louvres.

The DBS Superleggera includes Carbon Ceramic Brakes a s s t andard, t h i s b rak ing s y s tem in conjunc t ion with the new 21" forged wheels, fur ther enhances the super l ight nature of the car. All features in combinat ion result in a 70kg weight saving over the DB11. We call the approach ‘Superleggera’ – a name meaning superlight which was f ir s t seen on the DB4 in 1959 and referred to the specif ic cons t ruc t ion technique of t he renowned coachbuilder Touring of Milan. Today i t speaks of our unwavering focus on weight reduc t ion, from it s lightweight bonded aluminium s t ruc ture to the ex tensive use of carbon f ibre not jus t as a cosmet ic applique, but a s key, per formance t rans forming component r y.

The 715bhp provided by the DBS Superleggera 5.2 V12 t win- turbo eng ine i s a co los sa l f igure by any s t andard. But that i s jus t

where i t s t a lent s t ar t s . When you drive the DBS Superleggera you get to savour something

else even more phenomenal – i t s torque.

Torque is a s di f f icul t to explain a s i t i s ea sy to experience: i t i s the power of the

punch you feel when a car accelerates, and the DBS has 900Nm of i t , more than any

A s ton Mar t in road car in our hi s tor y.

Thank s to the out s t anding f lex ib i l i t y of our hand-bui l t , t win- turbo 5.2- l i t re V12

engine, there’s no need to wait : a l l of i t i s available f rom jus t 1800rpm. This ef for t less

and ins t ant aneous urge, accompanied by the inimi t ab le mul t i - layered symphony of

a thoroughbred V12 prov ide the f ines t soundt rack you could hope to hear. They

An engine capable of accelerat ing to 62mph in less than 3.6 seconds and to a top speed of 211mph needs to be harnessed by a very special t ransmission. With the ZF 8HP95 gearbox, the DBS Superleggera has the most sophist icated driveline yet. The gearbox sit s between the rear wheels to provide optimal weight distribution and has been specif ically programmed not just to learn and adapt to your dr iv ing s t y le, but al so to of fer a choice of charac ters according to which driving mode is selected. In GT the shif t s are silk-smooth, while in Sport and Sport Plus they are increasingly sharp and urgent, providing a unique contrast in personalities vital to fulfilling the DBS’s roles of both the ultimate Grand Touring car and the inspirat ional driv ing machine that have always been the hallmarks of the f lag ship produc t ion As ton Mar t in.

Power without control is power that is squandered, which i s why the DBS Super leg gera i s a mas ter at making the mos t of the va s t resources the V12 p laces at i t s di sposa l .

But it doesn’t end there. The key to providing the feel of a spor t s car one moment with the r ide
