Happy Weds everyone! And welcome to the most powerful SUV that we've ever driven on the channel! Crazy to think how Aston managed to swindle Mercedes-AMG into getting the most powerful version of the M177 AMG V8 but here we are. When it comes to exotic high powered factory-built SUV's, it doesn't get much crazier than this! Enjoy!
I love how much fun you were having with this. Car is very awesome but I can’t imagine paying $300k and it being outdated with tech right off the lot. I would rather lose performance and buy something else. The sound reminds me of the XM. I like it.
Prefer cars for driving personally but then again I have an iPhone 12! I don’t give a shit about “tech “ as it’s outdated after 12 months whatever you get. Aston’s tend to be owned by people with a bit off class. The Lincoln,although might be a great truck would get left beyond the horizon after the 1st bend in the road!
That just isnt a 200k interior anyway you cut it. Might be handcrafted but it just aint all the impressive. Those nasty plastic window controls are unacceptable. Need to be made outta striaght metal.
I'm ok with old technology, but I come from a generation that did not have all the tech today. It a nice looking suv. I will put on my short list. Thanks for the content.
we're on the eve of a new infotainment interface with the db12 launch next week. i'm holding out for aston to bring those upgrades to the dbx707 interior, then ill go trade my 22 f-pace svr on one - also needs adaptive headlights and massage seats
Hey Sofyan Thx again for an AWESOME review👍👊 See if you can review the other AM's too - The info update on this one is newer than the Vantage & DBS. Luckily for AM buyers the DB 12 has a newer Command centre and also a tranny lever vs those buttons. FYI its not a "Heads up" display rather its a "Head Up" display. Also, when a vehicle is fast its referring to its top speed EG Aventador"s & Bugatti's are Fast. Quick is the 0-60 and/or 1/4 mile times. EG Tesla Plaid is quick in 1.4 mile but NOT a FAST vehicle Been following your reviews for a few yrs now and I luv how you still get giddy when launching a car:-) Have an AWESOME day!!! Cheers from Vancouver, Canada
Lol really? I assume you never saw one in person! There is no mistaken an Aston. In person it is an amazing looking car that is by far the funnest to drive!
For that money, it dang well better sound that good. I'm as impressed with a turbo 4-banger as the next guy, but there ought to be a brute sound to match the brute force. I know EVs don't make all that noise, and indeed they're quite a force, but internal combustion will always be a more impressive machine.
Yes the ultimate aston martin to buy, i condone myself, it's been a while since I watched this channel, glad I'm watching it, let alone a suv this is fast for any car, up ahead on the other road it would do even beter
As far as the door closing and the "THUNK" , think of it as a more British refined piece of hardware, subtle distinguished, reserve and slightly apologetic while still maintaining sophistication :)
It's gorgeous, but they still can't get the front clip to fit properly. Looks like the car has been in an accident. The body panel gaps are terrible all around for such an expensive product. I mean cheap cars don't even have this problem anymore. The infotainment in this car doesn't have anything to do with MBUX. Aston wishes it did.
Nice...but with a ask of $240,000 to start...its a hard sell. Too many manual operations (seat fold down/up, doors open/close, etc..). Add a last gen infotainment and I can think of a few SUVs with more, for much less... 1/4 million dollars and the backseat occupants look at a temp gauge, nothing more. Tesla and BMW are giving you color touch entertainment screens back there...
Lol destroy??? It might be faster by a tenth of a second but if that how you judge a car you have no idea. Again I love Porsche and have 911 gts. Dbx is an amazing car both the regular and newer 707. In all aspects. Drive one and you will understand!!!!
@@ronen1167 I tested the Cayenne Turbo GT when I went to Germany to visit my uncle he owns one thus my dream car, handling is amazing, Porsche's Dynamic Chassis Control with active roll bars. A multi-link suspension at all four corners. The Turbo GT also gets lower springs and carbon fiber roof compared to a regular Cayenne. I will chose Porsche over the Aston Martin DBX even though I haven’t tested one before
@@ronen1167 I would not get the turbo GT do its very basic and bland interior options, but they are both fast, its just that porsche has a better interior layout, technology and timeless design, aston has good quality interior but as you can see its just a pile of leather, it doesnt flow. As far as capability, porsche is well rounded more than aston, now personally I like maserati, but they have reliability issues.
If james bond drove an suv then it would be an suv that could handle all terrain ,.off roadimg climbs etc and it would be a range rover , not a jacked road based pointless station wagon !
We are just returning to the orginal car styles. Crossover seem a lot like cars from the early 20th century. The orginal sedan. I guess the sedan we know was the fad all along.
Every car brand wants a slice of the EV market ! The expensive one’s of them will not sell many of them ! Why use Mercedes parts in an Aston Martin ? Stupid decision !Destroys the Aston Matin brand ! Is it a mercedes or an Aston Matin .A weird hybrid Aston Martin \Mercedes AMG !

Hi Redlone, you know you've made it in life when you're driving thr apostle ro the Exotic Cars.
What do you think about the Polestar 1 ??
@@Nom_AnorVSJedi I like the Polstar 1 I think it's a dandy of an SUV.
@@LuisUrbieta you’re thinking of the Polestar 2 … the 1 is a coupe.

Sofyan, I remember watching your channel since your days at the Ford dealership. It's amazing how far you've come! Keep up the great content!
Back when the channel was called 2theredline lol
@@elliottmanning4116 same here
Your laughter was contagious, had me smiling 😂😂 That looks really fun, I wouldn't buy it but your reactions was very compelling. Great review 👏 👌🏾

And materials be damned, that interior space is ugly AF. Lincolns, although not cheap, look 100x better. Hell, so do the Genesis interiors.

I can’t unsee that it looks like a Ford Fusion SUV 😂
Ford Evos for the Chinese market - though the Aston is quite a bit more aggressive looking.

I’m here to watch Sofyan lose his mind when he drives vehicles like this.
Great stride sofyan.... getting a Aston Martin for review!!
Hi Sofyan! I'd looove for you to do a video on price gouging and dealer mark-ups. Most of the cars today regular people cannot afford anymore. Thanks!
First
Dream ride, I don’t know what would be better than this. Sports car performance with comfort of SUV. Perfect ride height and fast 697 hp
Absolutely great review!!! Would y'all buy 1 as a family hauler??? NYC loves y'all!!!
I like watching videos by Redline Reviews :)

Looks like something I would see in GTA
if you can afford it this is the sexiest SUV on the market. Anything else would be settling for less. If you got it spend it, I can only dream.
My 7 Series BMW has a touch screen. I never touch it. So the lack of that in this SUV really isn't an issue.
I’d rather have this than the lamborghini urus ❤🔥
A Tesla Model X is NOT a competitor to this or any luxury SUV.... This truck is beautiful inside and out...
so a "British" SUV with a German engine and the front end reminds me of a ford escape.
Ford actually took design elements from Aston Martin, who pioneered that front grill design, which they used on the Escape and Fusion.
@@bparker8195 ahhh ok that makes total sense now.
The grill looks like the average Brits mouth.
Lol really? I assume you never saw one in person! There is no mistaken an Aston. In person it is an amazing looking car that is by far the funnest to drive!
Totally unrelated to the car review, but your engagement / wedding ring that we saw when you tested the horn is beautiful Sofyan!
Aston Martin has truly created an icon!🌟🌟
For that money, it dang well better sound that good. I'm as impressed with a turbo 4-banger as the next guy, but there ought to be a brute sound to match the brute force. I know EVs don't make all that noise, and indeed they're quite a force, but internal combustion will always be a more impressive machine.
Yes the ultimate aston martin to buy, i condone myself, it's been a while since I watched this channel, glad I'm watching it, let alone a suv this is fast for any car, up ahead on the other road it would do even beter
The active exhaust with pops that engine starts, all AMG has it…
I wish I’d ordered mine in this colour now!!😢
The Subaru model has some of the features externally!
As far as the door closing and the "THUNK" , think of it as a more British refined piece of hardware, subtle distinguished, reserve and slightly apologetic while still maintaining sophistication :)
That sound is amazing
That thing has some huge tires and it sounds awesome
Would of been cool if they put the v12 from the DBS superleggera in it
Facts
thats gotta be one of the classiest "beasts" i've ever seen
did i just heard floormats for 2000 dollars???? need a raise
300k after tax, thats seriously not worth it
can't believe this car is from 2023.
was this approved in 2012?
Looks like a ton of fun!
My favorite car 😍🔥
looks better than the Purosangue 🤷🏾♂️🔥🔥🔥

Yes I see it, between the bumper and the hood also the fenders. Buyers probably too distracted by the horsepower 😅😅
key fob looks like an electric shaver
first aston martin i actually like
My favorite Vehicle
I wish I was rich. Thwt 2nd row is so roomy. Wow!! My dream suv aka hatchback
Honestly, the front looks like the newer ford escape, and the Interior is boring to me but everyone has their own test. It makes impressive power tho
Did the aston martin reminds you of the hellcat or how powerful its pushes you back
Wow, powerhouse but too much $$$$$$$$$. Sofyan please test out the new 2024 BMW X5
AMG Engine with Aston Body
Unless Aston meant "most powerful luxury SUV ever", that title belongs to the now-defunct Jeep Trackhawk.
Who misses that amazing Mercedes-AMG M177 4.0L V8? I know I do~
I feel like Aston may have been the first to do a push button transmission? At least predominantly.
What were they thinking when they were designing those transmission buttons? Oh...they weren't thinking at all..fair enough
Nice...but with a ask of $240,000 to start...its a hard sell. Too many manual operations (seat fold down/up, doors open/close, etc..). Add a last gen infotainment and I can think of a few SUVs with more, for much less...
1/4 million dollars and the backseat occupants look at a temp gauge, nothing more. Tesla and BMW are giving you color touch entertainment screens back there...
That rear end is so goofy.
Sofyan, it's time to review Urus Perfomante.....hrrrrrr
A real Beauty
Yes to bonkers colour options.... _55 of them!_
Can you try nio luxury car?
2k for floor mats how much for weather tech 😂
All that money and no touch screen nor Android auto. Smh these companies be getting over big time smh
it looks like FORD FOCUS
Nice car would pick it over the urus
No touchscreen in a car of this class and price point is unforgivable….really?
Price of a house and doesn't have android auto 😂
What a beautiful Ford Esca....oh, sorry! No seriously, the MB/AMG-sourced powertrain is sublime and seems to do better here than MBs own SUVs.
The interior looks like a toy car. Its straight out of 1990.
The powertrain is nice however the look is not my cup of tea.
Hear me out. I’d squat it and just get deeper rims with the same spokes
NO AA? DEAL BREAKER! They can charge $2,000 floor mats. I say WalMart $20 Mats and take a Cruise for 2 with the $1980 left over.
300k? I'll take an Emira instead for the same fun.
thats 2700 kilos... OMG that car is super heavy
I would rather get a cayenne turbo coupe, better suv
Did you drive the DBX? Even the regular DBX? If you did, you wouldn't say it as much as I love Porsche. It is a magic of a car.
@@ronse678 the new Cayenne Turbo GT will completely destroy this 🤣🤣🤣
Lol destroy??? It might be faster by a tenth of a second but if that how you judge a car you have no idea. Again I love Porsche and have 911 gts. Dbx is an amazing car both the regular and newer 707. In all aspects. Drive one and you will understand!!!!

You need to win lottery to buy this, only for rich people 😢
Aston = all look.. no go.
looks more like a duck tail to me 🤓 drake feathers (male duck) tail feather
Pretty much $500 per tire, omg
Looks like a lifted Ford fusion
The grill is too big
what a ford escape on roids would look like
Looks like custom ford fiesta
Better interior in a Genesis
Niceee!!!
If james bond drove an suv then it would be an suv that could handle all terrain ,.off roadimg climbs etc and it would be a range rover , not a jacked road based pointless station wagon !
Rather get a Lotus SUV
Nice car. Poorly put together. Kind of sad when a 30 grand kia offers better tech.
15/20 mpg’s. 🙄🤦♂️
Chicken 🐔 drumbettes!
We are just returning to the orginal car styles.

live with this thing for one month and youll realize why no one buys it
