Here at HWM we are enormously excited about the DB12S. Could this be the pick of the range? It would appear to give us the essence of a DBS, perhaps appealing to owners of the DBS Superleggera. The Vanquish with the mighty V12 engine remains the pinnacle of the Aston Martin range but the enhancements made to the S variant of the DB12 make it an incredibly compelling offering.
Aston Martin DB12 S: The perfect combination of performance and elegance.
Aston Martin were already starting with an exceptional foundation. The DB12 has been incredibly well received by the car world so to move the game on was a serious challenge. The DB12 S pushes boundaries even further, delivering more power, sharper dynamics and a more commanding presence, all while retaining the elegance Aston Martin is renowned for.
For drivers seeking the most engaging and responsive grand tourer in its class, the DB12 S will be the car to own.
The iconic ‘S’ designation has long symbolised Aston Martin’s most focused and exhilarating models. From the legendary DB3 S of the 1950s to more recent favourites such as the Vantage S and Vanquish S, the badge has always represented enhanced performance and driver engagement.
The DB12 S proudly continues this heritage, positioning itself as the halo performance model within the DB12 range. More than a badge, ‘S’ is a promise – one of dominance, precision and connection between driver and machine.
Striking Design with Purposeful Aerodynamics
From every angle, the Aston Martin DB12 S commands attention. Its design enhancements are not merely visual; they are carefully engineered to improve aerodynamic performance and driving confidence. It does look rather special though!
Changes include:
There is also a huge array of personalisation options that allow owners to tailor the DB12 S to their own personal style. Available in both Coupe and Volante body styles, it offers the perfect balance of performance and lifestyle appeal. If you haven’t been on the Aston Martin configurator, we recommend it!
Performance
Powering the DB12 S is Aston Martin’s formidable 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine, delivering an impressive 700PS and 800Nm of torque. Enhanced powertrain calibration and throttle response sharpen the driving experience, making the car feel more alive and responsive at all speeds.
Performance highlights include:
The DB12S will have a broad ability from high performance missile to comfortable cruiser.
A Soundtrack That Matches the Performance
It is not just the performance that has been upgraded, the S has a voice to match. As standard, it features a stainless-steel quad tailpipe sport exhaust system with active valve control, producing a deeper and more commanding exhaust note.
For those who crave even more theatre, an optional titanium exhaust system reduces weight while amplifying sound output, creating a truly immersive driving experience worthy of the ‘S’ badge.
Precision Chassis Engineering for Driver Engagement
The DB12 S has been meticulously engineered to increase agility without compromising ride comfort – a hallmark of Aston Martin’s Super Tourer philosophy.
Chassis enhancements include:
Standard carbon ceramic brakes reduce unsprung weight by 27kg while delivering outstanding stopping power and consistency, even under demanding conditions.
A Performance-Focused Luxury Interior
Inside, the Aston Martin DB12 S combines sporting intent with exquisite craftsmanship. Exclusive S details elevate the cabin, including embroidered ‘S’ logos on the seats, bespoke quilting patterns and a performance-oriented driver display cowl.
Interior themes range from the dynamic Accelerate environments in leather and Alcantara® to the luxurious Inspire S interiors in semi-aniline leather. Optional carbon fibre performance seats and Alcantara® steering wheel further enhance the driver-focused experience.
The Aston Martin DB12 S sets a new benchmark for luxury performance grand tourers. Faster, sharper and more emotionally engaging than ever, it represents the ultimate evolution of the DB lineage.
