makes luxurious, fast cars that aim for an elegant, yet aggressive, styling. them by adding more power and too many wings. This modified DBX is what happens when those two ideologies collide.

The Mansory DBX is the first high-performance DBX we’ve seen. Aston Martin itself has promised both a hybrid iteration of the SUV and a sporty upgrade, but German tuning company Mansory has beat the company to it.

For its interpretation of a high-performance DBX, Mansory starts with the stock , which has more than 500hp and can reach 180mph. The German company then and adds two larger turbochargers, a sports exhaust setup, new air filter and new engine management system.

The result of this is an SUV that offers 800 hp and a top speed of 200 mph. Impressive.

But, there’s a catch to all this impressive performance, and that’s obvious as soon as you see what has done to the Aston Martin’s styling.

Where , and most other Aston Martins, are and don’t shout about their performance in the way an AMG Mercedes might. This Mansory DBX is undoubtably the cock amongst the pigeons.

To better reflect the changes under the hood on the outside, Mansory updated the front of the DBX to showcase a new design and added carbon fiber.

Mansory then fitted a lightweight hood with additional air outlets and extensive Mansory branding down the flanks of the car.

To make the DBX appear “more powerful, but also lower and more elongated,” Mansory gave it a new rear wing, tweaked the diffuser design and doused the whole car in carbon fiber trimmings.

Finally, Mansory gave the DBX a metallic black paint scheme that is accented by lime green highlights. This color scheme is echoed inside and brings with it a whiff of luminescent cycling gear. I’m sure that’s the look .

While the prospect of an 800 hp DBX does sound fun, I fear that you might need to drive with your eyes closed to fully enjoy this one. And that doesn’t sound like the best way to travel.

Let’s call this the first draft ahead of themselves launching the finished article when its high-performance DBX is ready.
