The mid-term facelift generally has obvious exterior design changes and power upgrades, but the biggest change in the Aston Martin DBX 707 facelift this time is the comprehensive upgrade of the interior, there is basically no change in the appearance, the power remains the same, the regular version of the DBX is canceled, and only the DBX 707 version is retained.
The main reason for the interior upgrade of this facelift may be related to the upper floor. Lawrence Stroll, Aston Martin's executive chairman, said DBX owners had a major complaint about the interior and outdated user interface, and they liked everything beyond that. This may also be the reason why he ordered the interior to be redesigned for the DBX, as well as the development of a new infotainment system inside, a new system that we have already seen in the DB12.
Aston Martin has confirmed that the regular version of the DBX, which comes with a 542-horsepower twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 engine, has been scrapped. In the current lineup, only one model is the DBX707.
Before the facelift, the DBX 707 had a complex operation of various switches, including a drive mode switch squeezed on the center console, a gear selection button on the dashboard, and so on. And its infotainment system can't be operated by touchscreen, which may be the last system in the luxury car segment that can't be operated by touch, and this system still runs the UI system of the previous generation of Mercedes, which can only be controlled by turning and pressing the rotary button.
The interior of the new DBX 707 has been almost completely redesigned, with a revised dashboard and a more intuitive overall layout. It features the same center console as the DB12 and is also equipped with a compact gear lever with physical buttons for drive mode and HVAC functions.
Above the console is a high-resolution 10.2-inch touchscreen running Aston Martin's own Linux-based Aston UX system. The steering wheel has also been redesigned, with a smaller and more elegant steering wheel cover. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are supported, and there are two USB-C ports between the driver and front passenger. An 800-watt, 14-speaker sound system comes standard and can be upgraded to a 1600-watt, 23-speaker Bowers & Wilkins sound system.
With minimal changes to the exterior, the DBX 707 is available in five new livery colours, black, yellow and a variety of greens. There are also new mirrors and door handles.
The Aston Martin DBX 707 is still powered by a twin-turbocharged 697-liter V8 engine (metric horsepower 707, where the name comes from), which powers four wheels via a nine-speed automatic transmission, both powered by Mercedes-AMG.
Carbon-ceramic brakes, a torque-dividing rear differential, and a 48-volt anti-roll system are still standard. While the hardware remains the same, Aston says the air springs and adaptive dampers have been newly calibrated to provide better control over the bodywork.
Aston Martin has not yet announced a price, with deliveries of the revamped DBX 707 starting in the second quarter.
