Unleashing 690 HP and 590 lb-ft of torque. Mastering 0–60 mph in a blistering 3.4 seconds. With an aggressively sculpted exterior and lightweighting technologies that emphatically declare its sporty purpose. Delivering class-leading performance with an intensified dynamic edge. A Super Tourer for those who make all roads their own.
Engineering and Performance
PRIMED FOR POTENCY
Pure potential, realized. The hand-built 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8 of the DB12 S is elevated to a new threshold of performance. Every tunable parameter is optimized, pushing power to a class-leading 700 HP and delivering a relentless 900 NM of torque. New Launch Control calibration maximizes traction. Propelling DB12 S from 0–60 mph in just 3.4 seconds. Unrivaled power for a front-engine rear-wheel-drive sports car powered solely by a combustion engine.
COMMAND THE CORNER
DB12 S features the next generation of corner braking control, which is integrated within the Electronic Stability Program (ESP) system. Leveraging a six-dimensional accelerometer and advanced brake slip control, the system predicts and manages load transfer through every corner. Giving a stronger turn-in and greater mid-corner agility to deliver the dynamic feel of a shorter wheelbase with the added ride refinement and stability of a grand tourer. Torque vectoring across the rear axle also delivers sharper, more precise cornering behavior. Optimizing balance, control, and confidence.
IMPECCABLE RESPONSE
The eight-speed automatic gearbox is recalibrated for a new level of intensity, with shift times cut by 43% to just 120 milliseconds. This heightened immediacy delivers a more urgent and visceral driving experience with every gear change.
We have an unstoppable quest for profound gratification. A desire to capture the pure human emotion of the driving experience.
Interior
PERFORMANCE FOCUSED
Engineered for driver focus, the DB12 S interior builds on that of the Super Tourer with a unique suite of additional S features. Optional red anodised aluminium drive mode rotary, red seat belts and contrast stitching define the S identity, whilst S treadplates mark the threshold. Lightweight Alcantara® trim and optional chevron quilting add sporting intensity. A new carbon fibre surround on the Driver Instrument Cluster completes the performance-orientated environment.
AUDIBLE AUTHORITY
In DB12 S, sound becomes part of the performance. Resonating from every corner. 1,170 watts of pure audio authority delivered through 15 speakers to create a wall of precision-tuned sound. From immersive soundscapes to the crystal clarity of QuantumLogic® Immersion™, it delivers a soundtrack as compelling as the V8’s own. One that amplifies every journey.
PIXEL PRECISION
At the heart of the cabin sits Aston Martin’s proprietary infotainment system. A fully bespoke, multi-screen interface that is designed with razor-sharp responsiveness. Dual 10.25-inch Pure Black high-resolution displays offer ultra-responsive feedback with a 30-nanosecond reaction time. Delivering clarity and speed in equal measure. Wireless Apple CarPlay® Ultra and Android Auto™ integration ensure seamless connectivity, while the crisp, driver-focused layout reflects both car and driver’s performance intent.
With DB12 S we have carefully engineered a host of detailed changes which preserve refinement, boost performance and amplify driver engagement. This greater dynamic and performance bandwidth elevates the Super Tourer ethos to a thrilling new level.
Exterior
PRESENCE, PERFECTED
A lower, wider, more powerful stance is defined by an exclusive new F1®-inspired dual-aspect front splitter, finished in carbon fibre and aerodynamically honed for downforce and high-speed stability. Above, the iconic Aston Martin grille projects an assertive expression, while deep-cut channels sculpt the bodywork, channelling air with brutal efficiency. A more dominant presence from every angle.
THE MARK OF A BLOODLINE
The side profile of DB12 S is sharpened by unique Gloss Black sills that visually lower the car’s stance. Signature ‘S’ badging sits discreetly on each fender. Chrome-plated, brass-forged and filled with red glass enamel. Available in bright or dark chrome to match the exterior trim, a mark of its high-performance bloodline. Handcrafted by Vaughtons, time-honoured British manufacturers of the bespoke Aston Martin wings. Completing the look, an inscription of the Aston Martin wordmark features on the iconic side strake.
AERODYNAMICS WITH INTENT
Exclusive to DB12 S, a fixed carbon spoiler blade enhances the aerodynamic profile at the rear with a purposeful, assertive lip. Below this, a rear diffuser reduces lift to further support high-speed stability while visually extending the bodywork. Making the car appear lower to the ground, while elevating its presence. Optional painted fog-light housings add further brooding power. Making the DB12 S as commanding from behind as it appears from the front.
