End of an Era

By Staff Writer24 February 2023
The most powerful Aston Martin ever, the British auto marque has unveiled the DBS 770 Ultimate, a final release limited to just 499 cars.

The most powerful Aston Martin ever, the British auto marque has unveiled the DBS 770 Ultimate, a final release limited to just 499 cars.

Long associated with cars of exquisite style and intoxicating performance, the DBS nameplate has been attached to some of Aston Martin’s finest flagships. Since 2018, the DBS has stood at the pinnacle of Aston Martin’s series production range; a Twin-Turbo V12 powerhouse blessed with ferocious performance and unmatched style.

As its name suggests, the DBS 770 Ultimate is an emphatic last word. The most powerful production Aston Martin ever, and the fastest and most powerful DBS to date, extensive design and engineering enhancements ensure the DBS 770 Ultimate is an unforgettable and highly-collectable celebration of Aston Martin’s flagship Super GT. Available in both Coupe and Volante form, DBS770 Ultimate will be built in strictly limited numbers – 300 Coupes and 199 Volantes – with all examples sold ahead of release.

The most powerful Aston Martin ever, the British auto marque has unveiled the DBS 770 Ultimate, a final release limited to just 499 cars.

The DBS 770 Ultimate features a ferocious iteration of Aston Martin’s quad-cam 60-deg 5.2-litre V12 engine. Now developing 770PS at 6500rpm and a colossal 900Nm of torque from just 1800rpm to 5000rpm, propelling DBS 770 Ultimate to a top speed of 339km/ph, this magnificent engine benefits from modified air and ignition pathways together with a 7% increase in maximum turbo boost pressure. Precise tuning of power and torque curves gives the driver a sense of boundless performance, with an intoxicating blend of exceptional response, outstanding in-gear acceleration and the authentic V12 soundtrack.

Power is fed through a ZF 8-speed automatic transmission and mechanical Limited-Slip Differential (LSD) mounted at the rear of the car. In addition, DBS 770 Ultimate receives a unique transmission calibration to enhance shift speeds and driver interaction, contributing to a truly connected driving experience.

To further improve the direct nature of the steering response and increase the level of detailed feedback, DBS 770 Ultimate introduces a new solid-mounted steering column, allowing the driver to enjoy a more precise connection with the road ahead. Integral to achieving the engaging character and heightened steering feel of the DBS 770 Ultimate, front-end lateral stiffness has been improved by 25% to provide maximum performance feel and response. Enhancements have also been made to the Adaptive Damping System (ADS) thanks to unique damper calibration and software tuning focusing on control and composure without compromising ride quality.

Just as the DBS 770 Ultimate has been mechanically honed, its appearance has also been amplified to present an assertive design and uncompromisingly unique aesthetic befitting of a final edition model created to celebrate the end of an era. Drawing increased airflow through the engine radiators, the clamshell bonnet features a dramatic ‘horse-shoe’ engine vent and a new front splitter integrates two new outboard vents. Together these serve to enhance cooling and echo the design signatures of previous DBS and V12 engine models.

Further design changes for DBS 770 Ultimate include 2×2 Twill Carbon Fibre Cantrail, Windscreen Surround, Mirror Caps, and Fender Louvre as standard, while a new carbon fibre sill element visually lowers the side profile towards the rear wheel, creating a poised stance that accentuates the DBS’s muscular physique. A unique design of rear diffuser maintains aerodynamic balance from front to rear, and coupled with new 21-inch wheels available in three finishes, ensures the DBS 770 Ultimate is as unmistakable from the rear as it is from the front.

Inside, the DBS 770 Ultimate delights with a dazzling array of fresh design treatments including Sports Plus Seats trimmed in full semi-aniline leather and Alcantara as standard and the option for Aston Martin’s performance seat. A bespoke trim split has been introduced, with contrast colours linked to welt and stitching, along with a tailor-made strap and buckle badge featuring a laser-etched DBS 770 Ultimate logo found on the centre armrest. Carbon Fibre Gearshift paddles are also fitted as standard.

If you’re planning a singles romp to Bali, you’re in luck as Iron Fairies channels its inner cupid this Valentine’s Day eve.

Taking place on February 13 (so you still have the next night if you strike gold), Iron Fairies will host an unforgettable evening of cheeky cabaret performances, free-flowing connections, and a playful twist. 

The ladies get in for free, while tickets will get the lads two drink vouchers – the catch is they’re only redeemable if you bring a wingman (or woman). Wrist bands will signal your single status (or your unavailability) to help cut through the fuss and let you find that femme du jour, just in time.
