Aston Martin DBS Superleggera 2018

The 2018 DBS Superleggera marks a significant technological and qualitative leap from previous iterations. It utilizes a 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12 engine, replacing the naturally aspirated V12 of earlier DBS models. The design has been reworked for a more sculpted body with enhanced aerodynamic features, reflecting a bolder, sportier intent. This edition sits at the pinnacle of the DBS lineup in terms of performance and exclusivity, while linking back to the Superleggera tradition that emphasizes lightness and efficiency. It also paved the way for a convertible variant, the Superleggera Volante, introduced in 2019.

Within the third phase of the DBS lineage, the Superleggera version stands out for its enhanced powertrain and high-performance focus. It is offered as a coupe featuring a refined body and increased power delivered by the 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12 engine. The Superleggera range expanded in the following year with the introduction of the Volante variant, which offers the same powertrain in an open-top configuration. Together, these variants reestablish the DBS badge with a sportier and more exclusive positioning, distinguishing themselves from previous DBS generations in both technological and design approaches.
