.............................................................
Here it is - our in-depth Aston Martin DBX review! It’s the first SUV Aston Martin has ever produced, and as you can imagine, it doesn’t come cheap - starting at £158,000!
So what do you get for that ludicrously big price tag? Well under the bonnet, you’ll find a 4-litre twin-turbo V8 (‘borrowed’ from Mercedes, no less), that’ll produce 550hp and 700Nm of torque. The DBX will also shoot you to 60mph in just 4.3 seconds, and it has a top speed of 181mph!!
The only question left is… If you could, should you spend this much on an SUV?! You’ll have to stick with Mat and find out!

The DBX costs just £2k LESS than a Lamborghini Urus... So which are you picking? Let us know in the COMMENTS!
I thought for a sec that was a Porsche Cayman
Lambo ofc
Matt what are uour views on India?
carwow Aston all day
I would always choose a German car over an English car XD
Is it just me or is Carwow so much better than Top Gear nowadays.
We'd have to agree... But maybe we're a bit biased 😏
any thing is better than than the current top gear
@@carwow jeremy clarkson VS Matt
Now we talkin' Grand Tour V carwow?
Matt should definitely become the host of TOP Gear!! He would revolutionize the show, bring it back to life.
7:00 “If you need an extra inch, which if you drive a Lamborghini, you probably do!” LOL
Came here to drop the time stamp for this 😂 (7:00)
yanni felt that
IKR! THE SAVAGERY HAHA
Escatel thanks, I edited the comment!
DDDAAAAMMMNNNNN
“If you drive a Lamborghini you probably need an extra inch”
*Yianni is punching the air rn*
9:28 good god that door warning is beautiful
About Matt: a secret Comedian rather than a car reviewer 😂❤️ he is just the best
Me: Clicks review £150,000+ car
UA-cam: Here's an ad for a Honda Jazz.
Nick Houghton what I want vs what can i afford
If it were electric. Petrol/diesel no thanks.
🤣
Nick Houghton I got a Genesis ad.
UA-cam =Google. Google knows you better then you.
I thought it was a good Sean Connery impression, may he rest in peace
The original Bond may he rest in peace
U said it wrong. Itsh resht in peash
I thought it was good also👍
It was good but it's a Daniel Craig Era car...he should have had the kid in the back
“The Lamborghini comes with an extra inch if you need it. And if your driving a Lamborghini, you probably do” lmao who caught on to this
Yianni still punching the air
There isn't a single person who will ever take the DBX offroad
Matt just did
Only if they make a rally version. It’s like the G wagons. My buddy has one. Barely drives it. He would die inside if it got a scratch.
Farmer Harry does.
Jon Olsen probably would, if he gets on. He even offroaded his Rolls Royce
Or at all over an Urus? Cayenne? Haha even a range
The next James Bond movie needs to have Matt play a cameo
Not really
Yes, of course !
As the new Q!
Or Q's special staff that handles the cars!
@@zaramzalmay6307 You must be team Yianni
Camel ffs! Bloody spell checkers.
Reminds me of the time Hyacinth Bucket “borrowed” the Rolls to see how others looked at her and Richard 😂
😂 That didn't end well, as I recall...
John Bianchi haha yes!!! It all happened at the wrong time! Oh, that show was good.
It’s Bouquet! 😂🤣
Joe Perry “the bucket woman” 😂😂😂
BOUQUEEEEET Residence, Laaaady of the house, speaking! 😂
I love the honestly Matt has when doing reviews
"If you need an extra inch. And if you drive a Lamborghini, you probably do"
Heh
I read this as he was saying it XD
Shots fired to Yianni :D
Wolf Brigade ah yess. Yianni + 1 inch
😳
I was like OUCH!
Nothing says “British car” like a Porsche Macan body sitting on Mercedes internals. The shot of Daniel Craig reaching across the car to the glovebox to put his Aston in Drive in the next 007 movie will be epic.
Probably why they used all the older tech instead of new stuff just to give it that authentic feel!
Aston Martin is going bye bye
@@dragospahontu we get it, you've replied to almost every comment with the exact same thing
Stop being so jaded, it's an attractive vehicle and the macan comparison is a deliberate bit of slander to Aston's work here.
@@PatrickN8 It is, the entire infotainment and electronics are Mercedes old system and Siemens.
Exotic cars are so rare in my country
but i have seen this with my own eyes ❤
Nice to see you actually parking it in a normal shopping car park, lets us see how easy/difficult it can be, cars just keep getting bigger and bigger but car park spaces stay the same size, same with garages on houses still being built to house 1970’s size cars!
It's more JOHNNY ENGLISH instead JAMES BOND
Mr Bean
😂😂
Reporter: how do u treat yourself
Me: by watching car reviews of cars I will never afford
Matt (yelling from the distance ) :Sucks to be uuuuuu!
Aston Martin is going bye bye
Been waiting for this review for ages. Thanks for confirming my thoughts, get one.
I've seen several DBX reviews and this is the most inspired. Carwow in stunning fashion!
"You can get 23" whells, if you need an extra inch, which you probably do, when you drive a Lamborghini"
That part killed me😂
😳
Sharp stab at Yianni 😄
Its so hard to choose which one i should get , this or the lamborghini urus. I think ill just get both...
In forza horizon
Is it in forza?
They really had us in the first half....not gonna lie
G63 6x6 is the best there
Oh yeah
Someone needs an extra inch! Oh!
The exhaust sound on Sport+ 🔥🔥🔥🔥
To drive an Aston Martin in those conditions is insane,love your videos from Romania.
Everyone in car park: huh, new Ford Puma?
The question is,
who will buy an Aston Martin, which looks like a Ford, with (old) Mercedes technic for such a high price?
My first thought was it's ford puma too
I wanted to write the same thing! I hate the design, it shouldnt look like a 20000£ car
Well ford stole some astons design language
@@ussselesss It doesn't. People who compare this to a Puma are stupid, and clearly never saw both cars in person. Puma is about half the size.
I like the fact that this channel also shows how easy the car is to drive around town and also the parking...you dont get that in most car reviewers
I absolutely love it, thank you for your demonstration mate.
Many thanks for the review Matt. Please keep up the excellent commentary.
That push button transmission would drive me mad. LOL
dreadful what were they thinking
Aston Martins have had this setup since like the db9. Granted the buttons do look a bit high up here...
Drag race idea:Astin Martin DBX v.s. Lamborghini Urus v.s. Porsche Cayenne coupe v.s. Mercedes G63 v.s. Bentley Bentayga
Husayn Mustafa my money is on Volkswagen
@@CvmmanderCvdy bruh😂😂
Vs jeep trackhawk. Seriously not considering an important SUV here
X3MC too ...
do all these compete with each other? This DBX looks so small, like and Macan, Q5, X4
What I adored about it besides the breathtaking design, was the fact that head room and rare seat comfort were not compromised because of that sporty slope roof… very intelligent and smart design! They just need to fix those tiny cheap bits they borrowed from AMG🤣
Good review Matt, funny and informative as always 👍🏻 really like the DBX to.
Such a cool car like an Aston should be! Seems to have just the right amount of everything and pure luxury too. Great review!
12:31 probably the only load cover he didn't dare to throw lmao
I would rather an RSQ8
Mat is one of the few youtube people I'd actually be glad to of met.
UA-camr*
Was driving one last night, and agree with the bit about the drivers seat, making you feel like you are sitting lower in it. So easy to drive and doesn't feel like a big car.
"Exhaust surrounds enhancer , like wearing a ribbed condom" - Matt 2020
Hahahah I am actually glad you commented this. I understood ripped condom and was like, what?! Hahahha
@@gonzalcala5 I wasn't expecting that and burst out laughing.
Oh my God! I almost thought he was going to throw that back cover. I freaked out!
I think this SUV looks lovely. I also love the auto raising of the suspension.
Congrats to Aston Martin for the off-road course experience.
I would like to tell you that the first thing I thought about when I saw this car's presentation is how it performs in the field. I entered a query on YT and here is your video. Thank you.
Mat never fails to entertain us...may god bless you 😌
If you need an extra inch , you'll probably need it if drive a Lamborghini. Hmmmm nicely done Mathew.
Lets see a drag race with the
*New Bentley Benteyga*
*Aston Martin DBX*
*Lamborghini Urus*
*Rolls Royce Cullinun*
Why with the Urus, which will outperform the other 3 by lengths?
Aston Martin is going bye bye
@@dragospahontu Is going where?
And the RSQ8, X7M and G Wagon or gle 65 or 63
Fam Account Cos urus is similar price
Great video starting with fabulous wellies/rubberboots of yours!!!
Great Matt!! Nice review as usual...you are so lucky boy...every day a new toy!!!!
man he is laughing and enjoying himself like a child in his first candy store xD This car is SURE to be good!
But the car it is just so ugly
@@AmanAman-ri9kk i bet u like how urus looks like
Sharas the dbx is beautiful, but I love the urus more .
@@AmanAman-ri9kk wtf it's beautiful
“If you need an extra inch... if you drive a Lamborghini you probably do..” Shots fired @ yanny
@@Mahan.M People from India and China are best at copying others 😂
Tomasz Kolowca I didn’t see any comments like mine at the time I commented, by the way I’m from the United States so thanks for that mate.
Copying other people comments for "likes" is extremely sad and pathetic. The things kids will do for a dopamine hit these days.
@@Goonswami You didn't see a comment that was worded the exact same as the comment you made afterwards... Hmm.
Dr. Ho Lee Phuk hey man it seems like there’s no point in telling the truth with keyboard warriors like you. I did type and think of it myself, feel free to believe what you want. I’m just trying to put a smile on someone’s face with a witty comment, relax man.
As usual Matt a great video keep them coming
Best review of car by you man ! Continue
Why did you Stopped throwing the parcel shelf??? 😅😅
We think that one might be a bit more expensive than your average parcel shelf 😜
@@carwow obviously 🤣🤣
But its Mat's signature move..
Really missing it 😅
You needn’t want to scuff it
@@carwow it would have been worth it though!
@@AreaofInterestTV It's probably about 5k for that parcel shelf
Love the 'authenticity' of commentary :)
The way Matt stared at the parcel shelf cover 😂😂 I had to rewatch this vid for the 4th time since it’s upload ❤️💯💯
Jesus, Mat has gone James Bond mode
Who is Jeesus Matt?
@@niklas5855 he should've written "Jesus, Mat"
Jeesus
“It starts at £158,000”
Yup, that’s my cue to leave😪
You might as well leave, since aston martin engines are glorified paperweights. Don't get me wrong, I'd love a db9, but I'd ls swap it after I buy it
The words "Aston Martin" were mine.
What'd you expect lol
@nzxtrr__ _ exactly
@nzxtrr__ _ But then a new model comes out and this one wouldn’t be as attractive.
You are one of the hardest working people in automotive journalism. Keep it up mate!
BBC should hire this guy, funny and entertaining addictive car reviews. Top class!!
Mat’s back must hurt from carrying this channel
Mat IS this channel.
His wallet isn't tho
I swear to god, these are the dumbest fuckin comments ever. Mat IS the channel, do you see anyone else making reviews on here? Am I missing something?
@@Sartheris He's an employee for carwow, he doesn't own the channel. He just works for the network, it's not his channel. Carwow is a network with over 50 employees. Mat is hired by carwow to make videos.
Geordie Jesus at Vanarama - the best
why do we all love Matt so much, he's a walking legend
U stole my words
Adrit Bothra what are you on about I just wrote this. 😂
@@meikle9776 bruh I am trying to tell I agree with you. Just in fancy words. 🤣🤣Lmao
@@adritbothra ahahahhahahahah I misinterpreted it! Sorry about that. I was confused I didn't see any comments like this! haha have a great day, cheers!
@@meikle9776 same to u mate!
You are 100% hilarious
Fantastic way to enjoy some time on the internet
Thanks Carwow and Mat!
CArwow been my go to car review in yt, its hilarious 🤣
"If you drive a lamborghini you probably need an extra inch"
😂
Yianni: "You wot?"
So Ford took the grill idea from Aston and now every Aston looks more like a Ford😂
Ford has an 8 percent stake in Aston Martin
I'm impressed by just how quiet it was throughout the video.
Gorgeous SUV, and my American ears loved the Sean Connery impression.
Imagine if this car were used in the next James Bond movie where bond has to go through an off road chase - Aston Martin DB No Time to Die
Aston Martin is going bye bye
Bond has to fight his way through the London prep school run, against dozens of Range Rovers, X5s and Cayennes.
@@chrishb7074 The Touareg is the pick of the range.
I love that the door opens in the little steep angle like the other Astons... looks pretty cool on the SUV... ;)
Great review! Loved it.
Idk why but I like Matt checking the exhausts with The Stick of Truth
To be honest if I had a family I’d have the DBX over the urus, even though the urus is quicker the Aston just seems more usable.
If you want usability buy a dacia duster
@@ussselesss a few*
What a Useless suggestion, anyone who would be in the market for the DBX wouldn’t have considered a duster!
Just buy a range rover
Zack E yeah but they’re too common 🤷♂️ gotta be different
"I love the look of this car, and if you don't, quite frankly, you're wrong" Great comment.
Fantastic . Straight forward verdict .
Usual top review with a few properly clenched moments chucked in
14:14 What a difference on sound between regular and sport mode !!
😎👌🏼
The only suv that looks sporty? Cmon Matt, that’s a lie
what others do?
@@Vanilla.coke1234 urus
Ike Hennessy x5m competition pack x3m competition pack,Porsche mcann, that new merc suv that does 0-60 in 4 seconds, I mean fuck me the list goes on, sports SUV’s are really sort after an common now, even rangerover svrs are quick af with a 5ltr supercharged V8, so yeh there must be over 20
@@yhyhyhyh3271 Stelvio quadrifoglio,rsq8
RSQ8! Urus..
I would change the exhaust tips to quadro tips. Except exhaust, it looks so good.
i like his reviews, he is so funny and entertaining! The video is well done as well.
With currently living with the new Aston Vantage I’m very exited to see an SUV that takes so many design points from the Vantage, It really is a Sports Utility Vehicle. Would much rather have the DBX over a Cayenne turbo or Lamborghini Urus because it’s just so much more classy and beautiful then it’s Rivals.
I saw one on the M6 last Friday, it looked gorgeous and sounded fantastic.
It's definitely on my Lottery win wish list.
Love it.
Love both colours ... exterieur & interieur ... & they form an elegant combination.
Love that exterior... and this review!
Every other car reviewer: Posts vid at midnight UK
Me: WTF is Matts review?
Exactly. Almost 10 different channels and I was like " where's Mat"
Doug Demuro was 7 months quicker.
@@Peter1Europe No, Doug looked at a prototype. Matt also looked at a prototype as did most car reviewers based in Europe. Doug was behind everyone else.
Carwow: *uploads*
Me:I am speed
My internet:we dont do that here
Matt my home in Kentucky was 7/10 mile off the paved road.
In the wet season sometimes ruts were deep enough we drug our differentials most of the way from the paved road to home.
In the late 70s tho tire choices were limited and we ran stud type snow tires to get traction.
Our parents 76 Chevy 2500 crew cab was an animal so was our 79 Bronco 351m
Your road just brought back memories..lol
As always a great review, thank you Matt. About the Aston, why is it that most British cars get fake sunroofs? (one that cannot open). It maybe be welcomed in the UK where the weather is always so bad, but in any other country, you feel like a fried egg behind a fake sunroof (in the sun of course). Landrover finally has changed its policy of fake sunroof to real sunroofs for the more expensive cars.
Not to mention, that most Airconditioners cannot keep up with a fake sunroof, when the temperature gets above 35 degrees (like the entire last week overhere...)
For me that is an absolute showstopper. If Aston fixes that, then it will be my new number one 😎
i think theres a indoor cover for the sunroof
7:12 nice looking Mondeo Estate
Ford stole the licensing from Aston Martin when they owned it
Carwow: *posts*
Everyone else: *F I R S T*
New Trend: *L A S T*
moizzkhan M I D D L E
Aston Martin is going bye bye
Leave the FIRST thing in 2017
Great Review
Top tier
Matt is far the best Car review ever I take his options well
Aston Point using everything from Mercedes. Just like Racing Point... who will soon be called Aston Martin
Lawrence Stroll is the boss on both companies. Next season he's changing the name of the F1 team to Aston Martin awell.
This Aston SUV is a Mercedes GLC coupe with a different body.
I am a E63s AMG driver. The new CEO of Aston Martin is Tobias Moers former CEO of AMG Germany also nowadays most of the engines are from AMG like the Vantage and the DB11. In my E63s there's the same engine like the DB11 and I didn't spend so much money for it. So they have something in common but the platform is still different. Because the Aston Martin will be allways unique Quote Marek Reichmann (German surname) chief designer of Aston Martin.
@A real bisexual petrol-head Prove that it isn't. They are using Mercedes parts everywhere and it would economical for them to use an existing chassis.
@@leaferrafael That explains the idiotic placement of the controls, probably done by Lance...
Brilliantly honest and funny review as always 🤣 I think the reason it doesn’t stand out is that front grille, as its now gone from being instantly iconic Aston, to ‘looks like a Ford suv’. Great for Ford, not so much for Aston 🤔
what's a car ! beautiful! Great test👌
That intro cracked me up, I wasn’t expecting that
"in a Lamborghini Urus, you can get 23 inch wheels if you need an extra inch, and if you drive a Lamborghini, you probably do"
Matt: "no other SUV looks sporty"
Lamborghini Urus: 👁️👄👁️
@@rishavroy3756 hmmmm, still your opinion
Macan
Cayenne and Macan: -__-
Should've started "My name is Bond. Mat Bond."
The look makes me expect further episodes of the movies too. The decor seems to be maintained under the cozy tone to eyes.
its like they just took the vantage, put the middle of the rapide in it sized it up, put it on a off-road chassis and went to the pub.
Can already see the posh mother’s driving this around instead of the usual Range Rover
Fuck I hope so, I invested 50K in their stock when they bottomed out for that very reason lol
A posh mom wouldn’t use this past 55mph...that’s sacrilege...poor Aston... SMH
I don't think so. This is twice the price of a range rover.
There no apostrophe required in mothers cos it’s intended to be written in the PLURAL. Why is it that you laddies under 50 years young have zero idea of English grammar, eh? About as useful as a cat flap on a submarine you are.
@@adriancoppin977 please calm down sir 😂
Can Matt do a review on a Urus? I’d love to see his take on it. My pet hates with cars are exactly the same!
This Aston is amazing
