The $180,000 DBX SUV Is Aston Martin’s Road Map Out of Limbo
One of the last old-school luxury brands to release an SUV can still turn its fortunes around.

In some ways, those intending to buy the $180,000 Aston Martin DBX SUV are more fortunate than those who paid the $682,000 deposit required for its $3 million Valkyrie.
For one, DBX owners have already started receiving their vehicles, far sooner than folks who signed up for the Valkyrie. Aston Martin has yet to deliver even one of the supercars, which it introduced in 2017, though it says shipments may start later this year. There are other things to love about the DBX as well: distinctive exterior styling that takes cues from the elegant Vantage; quality interior materials and technologies on par with Audi, BMW, and Porsche; and the manufacturer’s promise that other powerful variants are still to come.
