Aston Martin celebrates the Aston Martin Aramco Formula One Team with the release of an exclusive AMR24 Edition of its DBX707, the world’s most powerful ultra-luxury SUV, which promises to thrill you into people moving submission.

The AMR24 Edition offers exclusive content to both the interior and exterior of the DBX707 including a choice of Podium Green, Onyx Black or Neutron White paint, complimented by Aston Martin Racing Green or AMR Lime brake calipers and paired with the 23-inch Fortis wheels in either satin or gloss black, as well as an exclusive AMR24 engine plaque.
With the addition of either Lime Green or Trophy Silver accents to the sculptured in either gloss black or carbon, reminiscent of those on both AMR24 F1 car, the connection between the road and the track is underlined.
Inside the AMR24 Edition, the Inspire Sport trim is available in a choice of two colourways, enhancing the overhauled cabin even further: Onyx black (Monotone) with a striking lime stitch and piping, or Onyx Black / Eifel Green Duotone with a lime contrast stitch. The Aston Martin logo is also applied in foil to the dash panel and AMR24 is etched into the door sills, leaving occupants in no doubt of the Aston Martin racing bloodline.
The intensity inside the DBX707 AMR24 matches the exterior with a new sound system developed by Bowers & Wilkins that’s acoustically engineered to the DBX707’s interior volume and shape.

The Aston Martin DBX707’s unique blend of immense performance and exceptional dynamics includes a 707PS/900Nm 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 and 9-speed ‘wet clutch’ automatic gearbox. Mated to a sophisticated all-wheel drive system capable of sending up to 100% of the torque to the rear axle on demand, the DBX707 AMR24 can launch from 0-100 km/ph in 3.1 seconds and achieve a top speed of 310 km/ph.
Not too shabby for a people mover.
