The caveat is that everything mentioned is optional and not included on the standard model.

While the 0–100 kmph sprint remains at a blistering 3.1 seconds, the DBX S shaves valuable tenths off its 0–200 kmph time. The company further claims a top speed of 307 kmph. Interestingly, the DBX S is not just about straight-line speed. Aston Martin retuned the SUV’s nine-speed transmission for faster, crisper shifts in Sport and Sport+ modes. Steering responsiveness has also been tightened, making the DBX S feel more connected and agile. Braking is handled by massive carbon-ceramic discs — 16.5 inches up front and 15.3 inches at the rear — ensuring that the SUV’s immense power is matched by equally capable stopping performance.
