Happy Weds everyone! And welcome to the most powerful SUV that we've ever driven on the channel! Crazy to think how Aston managed to swindle Mercedes-AMG into getting the most powerful version of the M177 AMG V8 but here we are. When it comes to exotic high powered factory-built SUV's, it doesn't get much crazier than this! Enjoy!
I love how much fun you were having with this. Car is very awesome but I can’t imagine paying $300k and it being outdated with tech right off the lot. I would rather lose performance and buy something else. The sound reminds me of the XM. I like it.
Prefer cars for driving personally but then again I have an iPhone 12! I don’t give a shit about “tech “ as it’s outdated after 12 months whatever you get. Aston’s tend to be owned by people with a bit off class. The Lincoln,although might be a great truck would get left beyond the horizon after the 1st bend in the road!
I'm ok with old technology, but I come from a generation that did not have all the tech today. It a nice looking suv. I will put on my short list. Thanks for the content.
Hey Sofyan Thx again for an AWESOME review👍👊 See if you can review the other AM's too - The info update on this one is newer than the Vantage & DBS. Luckily for AM buyers the DB 12 has a newer Command centre and also a tranny lever vs those buttons. FYI its not a "Heads up" display rather its a "Head Up" display. Also, when a vehicle is fast its referring to its top speed EG Aventador"s & Bugatti's are Fast. Quick is the 0-60 and/or 1/4 mile times. EG Tesla Plaid is quick in 1.4 mile but NOT a FAST vehicle Been following your reviews for a few yrs now and I luv how you still get giddy when launching a car:-) Have an AWESOME day!!! Cheers from Vancouver, Canada
That just isnt a 200k interior anyway you cut it. Might be handcrafted but it just aint all the impressive. Those nasty plastic window controls are unacceptable. Need to be made outta striaght metal.
we're on the eve of a new infotainment interface with the db12 launch next week. i'm holding out for aston to bring those upgrades to the dbx707 interior, then ill go trade my 22 f-pace svr on one - also needs adaptive headlights and massage seats
Great video i do believe even though the Mercedes equipment in its time was good for the price point they are asking for that car you would expect something a lot more up-to-date, preferably touchscreen you are right it looks outdated love the look of it though and that sound 🤤
Yes the ultimate aston martin to buy, i condone myself, it's been a while since I watched this channel, glad I'm watching it, let alone a suv this is fast for any car, up ahead on the other road it would do even beter
For that money, it dang well better sound that good. I'm as impressed with a turbo 4-banger as the next guy, but there ought to be a brute sound to match the brute force. I know EVs don't make all that noise, and indeed they're quite a force, but internal combustion will always be a more impressive machine.
As far as the door closing and the "THUNK" , think of it as a more British refined piece of hardware, subtle distinguished, reserve and slightly apologetic while still maintaining sophistication :)
Lol really? I assume you never saw one in person! There is no mistaken an Aston. In person it is an amazing looking car that is by far the funnest to drive!
Holy Crap that Launch Control that punches you in the back of the seat. 😂😂😂😂 22:40 also thankfully aston martin dbx 707 add launch control new for 2023 23:37 mmm unbelievable 25:42 oh my gosh
This vehicle has a lot of flaws. Particularly in the technology area. Which makes it hard to believe it costs 300k. So many more options for that kind of money that overshadows the DBX
It's gorgeous, but they still can't get the front clip to fit properly. Looks like the car has been in an accident. The body panel gaps are terrible all around for such an expensive product. I mean cheap cars don't even have this problem anymore. The infotainment in this car doesn't have anything to do with MBUX. Aston wishes it did.
Nice...but with a ask of $240,000 to start...its a hard sell. Too many manual operations (seat fold down/up, doors open/close, etc..). Add a last gen infotainment and I can think of a few SUVs with more, for much less... 1/4 million dollars and the backseat occupants look at a temp gauge, nothing more. Tesla and BMW are giving you color touch entertainment screens back there...
I’m probably in the minority, but I don’t want my luxury car sounding like a muscle car with loud pipes. Then the interior reminds me of how we used to trick out our cars, with loud seat covers, when I was 19
Lol destroy??? It might be faster by a tenth of a second but if that how you judge a car you have no idea. Again I love Porsche and have 911 gts. Dbx is an amazing car both the regular and newer 707. In all aspects. Drive one and you will understand!!!!
@@ronen1167 I tested the Cayenne Turbo GT when I went to Germany to visit my uncle he owns one thus my dream car, handling is amazing, Porsche's Dynamic Chassis Control with active roll bars. A multi-link suspension at all four corners. The Turbo GT also gets lower springs and carbon fiber roof compared to a regular Cayenne. I will chose Porsche over the Aston Martin DBX even though I haven’t tested one before
@@ronen1167 I would not get the turbo GT do its very basic and bland interior options, but they are both fast, its just that porsche has a better interior layout, technology and timeless design, aston has good quality interior but as you can see its just a pile of leather, it doesnt flow. As far as capability, porsche is well rounded more than aston, now personally I like maserati, but they have reliability issues.
We are just returning to the orginal car styles. Crossover seem a lot like cars from the early 20th century. The orginal sedan. I guess the sedan we know was the fad all along.

Hi Redlone, you know you've made it in life when you're driving thr apostle ro the Exotic Cars.
What do you think about the Polestar 1 ??

Sofyan, I remember watching your channel since your days at the Ford dealership. It's amazing how far you've come! Keep up the great content!
Back when the channel was called 2theredline lol

And materials be damned, that interior space is ugly AF. Lincolns, although not cheap, look 100x better. Hell, so do the Genesis interiors.

Your laughter was contagious, had me smiling 😂😂 That looks really fun, I wouldn't buy it but your reactions was very compelling. Great review 👏 👌🏾
If I had the money…what an exhaust! AMG engines are a beast and I’m sure they used the AMG performance exhausts.
16:44 Aston has been using that same shifter location for 20 years or so
Great stride sofyan.... getting a Aston Martin for review!!
Hi Sofyan! I'd looove for you to do a video on price gouging and dealer mark-ups. Most of the cars today regular people cannot afford anymore. Thanks!
First
This car is my baby lol I've had my dream spec saved in my computer for months, just waiting on it to manifest! Excellent review as always!
I'm ok with old technology, but I come from a generation that did not have all the tech today. It a nice looking suv. I will put on my short list. Thanks for the content.
Dream ride, I don’t know what would be better than this. Sports car performance with comfort of SUV. Perfect ride height and fast 697 hp
My 7 Series BMW has a touch screen. I never touch it. So the lack of that in this SUV really isn't an issue.
I like the way Aston gave props to the 2007 ES 350 with the shape of the center stack. 15:37
I can’t unsee that it looks like a Ford Fusion SUV 😂
Ford Evos for the Chinese market - though the Aston is quite a bit more aggressive looking.
Hey Sofyan Thx again for an AWESOME review👍👊
See if you can review the other AM's too - The info update on this one is newer than the Vantage & DBS.
Luckily for AM buyers the DB 12 has a newer Command centre and also a tranny lever vs those buttons.
FYI its not a "Heads up" display rather its a "Head Up" display.
Also, when a vehicle is fast its referring to its top speed EG Aventador"s & Bugatti's are Fast.
Quick is the 0-60 and/or 1/4 mile times. EG Tesla Plaid is quick in 1.4 mile but NOT a FAST vehicle

Totally unrelated to the car review, but your engagement / wedding ring that we saw when you tested the horn is beautiful Sofyan!
Aston Martin has truly created an icon!🌟🌟
A Tesla Model X is NOT a competitor to this or any luxury SUV.... This truck is beautiful inside and out...
we're on the eve of a new infotainment interface with the db12 launch next week. i'm holding out for aston to bring those upgrades to the dbx707 interior, then ill go trade my 22 f-pace svr on one - also needs adaptive headlights and massage seats
if you can afford it this is the sexiest SUV on the market. Anything else would be settling for less. If you got it spend it, I can only dream.
Great video i do believe even though the Mercedes equipment in its time was good for the price point they are asking for that car you would expect something a lot more up-to-date, preferably touchscreen you are right it looks outdated love the look of it though and that sound 🤤
I’d rather have this than the lamborghini urus ❤🔥
I’m here to watch Sofyan lose his mind when he drives vehicles like this.
Absolutely great review!!! Would y'all buy 1 as a family hauler??? NYC loves y'all!!!
Yes the ultimate aston martin to buy, i condone myself, it's been a while since I watched this channel, glad I'm watching it, let alone a suv this is fast for any car, up ahead on the other road it would do even beter
Looks like something I would see in GTA

I know EVs don't make all that noise, and indeed they're quite a force, but internal combustion will always be a more impressive machine.
The Subaru model has some of the features externally!
I like watching videos by Redline Reviews :)
Doesn’t it come with the Bowers & Wilkins diamond sound system? I saw the 2024 has a B&W sound.
The active exhaust with pops that engine starts, all AMG has it…
As far as the door closing and the "THUNK" , think of it as a more British refined piece of hardware, subtle distinguished, reserve and slightly apologetic while still maintaining sophistication :)
When life gives you 🍋 lemons!!!! But the DBX 707 interior has yellow accents really nice
That sound is amazing
thats gotta be one of the classiest "beasts" i've ever seen
That thing has some huge tires and it sounds awesome
Looks like a ton of fun!
so a "British" SUV with a German engine and the front end reminds me of a ford escape.
Ford actually took design elements from Aston Martin, who pioneered that front grill design, which they used on the Escape and Fusion.
@@bparker8195 ahhh ok that makes total sense now.
The grill looks like the average Brits mouth.
Lol really? I assume you never saw one in person! There is no mistaken an Aston. In person it is an amazing looking car that is by far the funnest to drive!
I wish I’d ordered mine in this colour now!!😢
Would of been cool if they put the v12 from the DBS superleggera in it
Facts
Holy Crap that Launch Control that punches you in the back of the seat. 😂😂😂😂 22:40 also thankfully aston martin dbx 707 add launch control new for 2023
23:37 mmm unbelievable
25:42 oh my gosh
My favorite car 😍🔥
looks better than the Purosangue 🤷🏾♂️🔥🔥🔥
Did the aston martin reminds you of the hellcat or how powerful its pushes you back
This vehicle has a lot of flaws. Particularly in the technology area. Which makes it hard to believe it costs 300k. So many more options for that kind of money that overshadows the DBX
first aston martin i actually like
did i just heard floormats for 2000 dollars???? need a raise
can't believe this car is from 2023.
was this approved in 2012?
300k after tax, thats seriously not worth it
Honestly, the front looks like the newer ford escape, and the Interior is boring to me but everyone has their own test. It makes impressive power tho

Yes I see it, between the bumper and the hood also the fenders. Buyers probably too distracted by the horsepower 😅😅
AMG Engine with Aston Body
My favorite Vehicle
Nice...but with a ask of $240,000 to start...its a hard sell. Too many manual operations (seat fold down/up, doors open/close, etc..). Add a last gen infotainment and I can think of a few SUVs with more, for much less...
1/4 million dollars and the backseat occupants look at a temp gauge, nothing more. Tesla and BMW are giving you color touch entertainment screens back there...
Wow, powerhouse but too much $$$$$$$$$. Sofyan please test out the new 2024 BMW X5
Yes to bonkers colour options.... _55 of them!_
Would love to see a comparison between the Aston Martin 707 and the Dodge Durango SRT Hellcat
The new Cayenne Turbo GT will destroy all of that 🤣🤣🤣
I feel like Aston may have been the first to do a push button transmission? At least predominantly.
Who misses that amazing Mercedes-AMG M177 4.0L V8? I know I do~
Unless Aston meant "most powerful luxury SUV ever", that title belongs to the now-defunct Jeep Trackhawk.
key fob looks like an electric shaver
A real Beauty
Aston = all look.. no go.
Nice car would pick it over the urus
What were they thinking when they were designing those transmission buttons? Oh...they weren't thinking at all..fair enough
He looks like George Santos!
That rear end is so goofy.
What a beautiful Ford Esca....oh, sorry! No seriously, the MB/AMG-sourced powertrain is sublime and seems to do better here than MBs own SUVs.
Can you try nio luxury car?
Price of a house and doesn't have android auto 😂
This was awesome
No touchscreen in a car of this class and price point is unforgivable….really?
I wish I was rich. Thwt 2nd row is so roomy. Wow!! My dream suv aka hatchback
All that money and no touch screen nor Android auto. Smh these companies be getting over big time smh
Sofyan, it's time to review Urus Perfomante.....hrrrrrr
It looks like a Hyundai in the front or is it Ford, but it's clearly an Aston Martin
I’m probably in the minority, but I don’t want my luxury car sounding like a muscle car with loud pipes. Then the interior reminds me of how we used to trick out our cars, with loud seat covers, when I was 19
this is the sportier trim , people who gets the trim are searching for that so you would definitely probably be content with the base model
In this day and age be grateful things still sound like muscle cars
it looks like FORD FOCUS
2k for floor mats how much for weather tech 😂
It's a hell of a time to live in when there are Kias and Hyundais with objectively prettier interiors than an Aston Martin lol.
The powertrain is nice however the look is not my cup of tea.
NO AA? DEAL BREAKER! They can charge $2,000 floor mats. I say WalMart $20 Mats and take a Cruise for 2 with the $1980 left over.
The interior looks like a toy car. Its straight out of 1990.
I would rather get a cayenne turbo coupe, better suv
Did you drive the DBX? Even the regular DBX? If you did, you wouldn't say it as much as I love Porsche. It is a magic of a car.
@@ronse678 the new Cayenne Turbo GT will completely destroy this 🤣🤣🤣

Hear me out. I’d squat it and just get deeper rims with the same spokes
300k? I'll take an Emira instead for the same fun.
thats 2700 kilos... OMG that car is super heavy
Looks like a lifted Ford fusion
You need to win lottery to buy this, only for rich people 😢
Ford Escape looks like!!
Rather get a Lotus SUV
Pretty much $500 per tire, omg
looks more like a duck tail to me 🤓 drake feathers (male duck) tail feather
Better interior in a Genesis
Looks like custom ford fiesta
We are just returning to the orginal car styles.
Crossover seem a lot like cars from the early 20th century. The orginal sedan.
I guess the sedan we know was the fad all along.
what a ford escape on roids would look like
Pretty underwhelming quality for how much this will cost
