The ridiculousness of owning a practical vehicle that can out perform various sports cars and be enjoyed like one is something that an alternate reality rich me would definitely find intrigue in
Andy's "lecture" was excellent and honestly it sounds good and has a nice enough interior. Way better than the DB11, way better. Thank gosh it's not another VW Group SUV.
Nice job jack. Must have been an insane amount of work. Hope you hired a couple guys to help with the lights and audio and camera and battery tending. It looked up to your high standards

Let’s take a moment to appreciate the intro music that Mark adds not only to this video but all his productions. Mark you are a genius. You may not have as many subs as other reviewers but this channel, IMHO, is the very best. The Da Vinci of car reviewers.
Imagine working hard to get your engineering degree and moving to a dull part of the country to finally have the chance to work at your dream company, after a childhood of being inspired by the DB9/DBS/Vanquish/Vantage, then you get your job and you're assigned to a bloody SUV 😅
Local dealership just got a dozen of these and the interior is insane. Not sure who these dozen are for but my god they will never be driven as they were intended. Amazing handling and the sound. Shame it'll just be a mall cruiser.
I hope Mark had a wonderful time discovering the best of the best of American Italian trash food 👍 I'll have to see if my wife's boyfriend will let me take his DBX out for a drive.
I'm fine with the looks, it's the price and the fact that Aston made an SUV before a mass production wagon that bothers me, but oh well, if Lamborghini and Ferrari got em why not us, fuck me for growing old amiright.
I just reran the technical description because the engineering in these cars is so much of what makes them great and it is a shame how little attention it gets.
Hi thanks for such nice informative and detailed video actually nothing new u guys always do that hats off to u for the hard work and dedication towards ur job it's really good looking ssuv with nice interior and borrowed engine from AMG but few things I don't like about it too first of all the big let down is infotainment screen it's the old old merc one when u spent that much money u don't want main stream stuff in ur super special vehicle greetings from Toronto Canada
I actually really like this thing. It's a good move for Aston. The DBX is already one of the better looking SUVs. Always nice having aspirational models at the top.
Superior production and video as usual great car fit and finish looks superior . I love the Mountains and Sardinia is on my list of places to trek.All The best to you both always a viewer since day one EvanLKatz.
If there is self-awareness from the beginning, taking away the attachment is no longer the sorrow which has brought about through attachment. There’s a quality of mind that being free is able to perceive that which is eternal.
Fantastic job carrying the video by yourself. What a crazy car, not something anyone will even see with their own eyes in all likelihood - making this look at it our only way to experience such a nutso ride.
Kinda surprised how short the video is considering you traveled to another continent to cover it. It looks great, saw an Urus last weekend and this blows it out of the water
This thing is so odd-looking that my Mother who doesn't even follow cars had to check with me after seeing one to make sure Aston Martin really made it. It's not in-brand and I can't see why anyone in the market for an expensive, British-branded SUV wouldn't just buy a Range Rover.
The DBX shits on the range rover in exterior styling and interior styling and fit and finish. Range just has tons of tech that is great now but always breaks down and becomes dated shortly after release
Much as I appreciate the Range Rover's styling, it has little else going for it. I don't love everything about this, but there's no doubt about its exceptional perforrmance.
I find this sort of vehicle to be almost obscene. And yet I am sure if I drove it, I would fall in love with it. But, if I had half a zillion dollars to buy the world's silliest SUV, I'd want it to be a McLaren! Because that surely would be the silliest SUV of all time. Until Koenigggssseeggg decided to make one. That would take the cake. Surely?
Please compare this vehicle to the Porsche Cayenne. The Cayenne compared with the Aston or Bentayga would be an interesting segment. I think the Cayenne would compare very favorably to those...at a considerably lower (although not cheap!) price point.
It might say Aston Martin on the back, but it looks more like a Ford to me, possibly the newer Puma? The rear tail reminds me of the new Kia EV6. That all being said, it sounds bloody awesome!
To be fair the people who would not buy this are the same who would not buy an Aston Martin anyway... Still this CUV fits the brand perfectly and does not seem like a filler product for those who want a name not a vehicle.
It’s a high end ultra luxury SUV, that is why it has the older version MB infotainment system😮 Same with the old gear selector buttons which are difficult to reach. The engine looks very MB AMG.
