SoBARNES shows you round the future best-seller.<\/h4>\n<p>Sports cars have come to a crossroads, both literally and figuratively. Given that the end of the road for the combustion engines is predicted within the next 15 years or so, and road restrictions have limited the opportunities to indulge in pure speed, the way forward likely lies with the SUV. These cars are real all-rounders, a combination of a supercharged saloon car, a coupe cut out for the track, a family-friendly people carrier and a road warrior's 4x4. On all continents they are now seen as the future of the luxury sports car. A niche Porsche opened up with the Cayenne some 20\u00a0years ago, later followed (or imitated?) by Audi, BMW, Jaguar, Bentley, Rolls-Royce, Maserati, Lamborghini and co.<\/p>\n<p>The difficulty lies in making a car that doesn't sacrifice aesthetic appeal to efficiency. So all eyes were on Aston Martin on this aspect. But they\u2019ve pulled it off, producing a DBX that remains a real Aston Martin:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Aston Martin DBX | A New Dimension\" width=\"1200\" height=\"675\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/AxPhGnzb4rE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The stunning new arrival is 16.5\u00a0ft long and 6.5\u00a0ft wide, and has preserved all the classic Aston Martin elegance, starting with the radiator grille in a style unchanged since the 1960s. The SUV's profile is a big winner, making it look like the car is in movement even when parked. The windows are pure and simple, recalling the brand's coupes, while the rear features the wave effect first seen on the Vantage.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-1 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-110197 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/en\/so-barnes-en\/aston-martin-designs-its-future\/attachment\/aston-martin-dbx-hyper-red-a1-aml-6-jpg-copie-2\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Aston-Martin-DBX-Hyper-Red-A1-AML-6-JPG-copie-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Aston-Martin-DBX-Hyper-Red-A1-AML-6-JPG-copie-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Aston-Martin-DBX-Hyper-Red-A1-AML-6-JPG-copie-130x130.jpg 130w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/en\/so-barnes-en\/aston-martin-designs-its-future\/attachment\/aston-martin-dbx-hyper-red-a1-aml-236-jpg-copie-2\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Aston-Martin-DBX-Hyper-Red-A1-AML-236-JPG-copie-150x150.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Aston-Martin-DBX-Hyper-Red-A1-AML-236-JPG-copie-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/sobarnes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/Aston-Martin-DBX-Hyper-Red-A1-AML-236-JPG-copie-130x130.jpg 130w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt><\/dl>\n\t\t\t<br style='clear: both' \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<p>The luxurious interior of Aston Martin's first 5-seater has been designed to provide the same levels of space and comfort whether you are seated in front or behind.

To achieve these results, the DBX is fitted with a good old Mercedes-AMG 4.0-litre V8 Twin Turbo at 550\u00a0PS with the power transmitted to the four wheels via a 9-speed automatic gearbox. Aston Martin is highlighting the car's versatility, since the SUV is designed both to drop the kids off at school (children really are in the spotlight!) and to take them on holiday, as well as turning into a king of the race track at the slightest pressure on the accelerator. The price tag at \u00a3160,000 (\u20ac185,000) is admittedly high, but within the average for a car in this category.<\/p>\n<p>And since you can always trust SoBARNES to give you all the cutting-edge details, you might like to know that the SUV is also designed with the hunting fraternity in mind with an option for safely stowing your dog (or dogs) in the boot. Even better, there is an optional portable washer to rinse down our canine friends so they don't get mats and upholstery dirty.
