Aston Martin continues to blur the lines between its road cars and the high-octane world of Formula 1. The British luxury automaker has launched the DBX707 AMR24 Edition, a follow-up to last year’s DBX707 AMR23 Edition. This special edition pays homage to the company’s role in Formula 1, where its cars serve as safety and medical vehicles.
The Formula 1 connection
Aston Martin supplies a Vantage as one of the Formula 1 safety cars, sharing duties with the Mercedes-AMG GT. The brand also provides a DBX707 as the official F1 medical car. This vehicle can be seen on track during race emergencies, possibly sharing the circuit with Aston Martin Racing’s F1 car, the AMR24. The DBX707 AMR24 Edition, like its predecessor, draws inspiration from these high-performance vehicles.
Exterior design
The DBX707 AMR24 Edition offers a variety of customisation options, ensuring that each vehicle is unique. The primary exterior colour is Podium Green with Lime Green accents, a nod to Aston Martin Racing’s signature colours. The 23-inch satin black Fortis wheels are complemented by brake calipers painted in Aston Martin Racing Green.
For those seeking variety, Aston Martin has expanded the colour palette this year. Customers can choose from Onyx Black or Neutron White exteriors. The body kit is available in either carbon fibre or gloss black, with additional accent options in Trophy Silver. Gloss black wheels can also replace the standard satin black ones, and the brake calipers can be ordered in a striking Lime colour for added flair.
Interior: luxury meets performance
Inside, the DBX707 AMR24 Edition continues the racing theme with a two-tone Onyx Black and Eifel Green cabin, accented by Lime stitching and carbon fibre trim. This interior mirrors what you might see inside the F1 medical car, providing an authentic motorsport experience.
Aston Martin offers further customisation for the interior, including an Onyx interior with Lime stitching and titanium mesh trim with satin chrome accents. A new addition this year is a decorative Lime strap on the leading edge of the wireless charging pad, adding a touch of uniqueness to the refreshed DBX707 interior.
Powertrain: unmatched performance
Under the hood, the DBX707 AMR24 Edition boasts a twin-turbocharged 4.0-litre V8 engine, producing a formidable 697 horsepower and 663 pound-feet of torque. This powerplant ensures that the DBX707 is not just a stylish SUV but also a high-performance vehicle capable of thrilling driving experiences.
Unique identifiers
The DBX707 AMR24 Edition features several unique identifiers to distinguish it from other models. A plaque on the engine, “AMR24” etched into the door sills, and an Aston Martin logo in foil on the instrument panel provide subtle yet distinctive touches. Enthusiasts can further customise their vehicle with a “Medical Car” tab for the lower front intake and a yellow light bar for the roof, enhancing the F1 connection.
Why this matters
The release of the DBX707 AMR24 Edition underscores Aston Martin’s commitment to blending luxury and performance with its motorsport heritage. By offering a vehicle that mirrors the design and performance of its F1 counterparts, Aston Martin provides a unique opportunity for customers to own a piece of the racing world. This approach not only enhances the brand’s appeal but also reinforces its position as a leader in the luxury performance SUV segment.
Aston Martin’s DBX707 AMR24 Edition is more than just a special edition SUV; it’s a celebration of the brand’s deep-rooted connection to Formula 1. With its striking design, luxurious interior, and powerful engine, this vehicle offers an unparalleled driving experience. As Aston Martin continues to innovate and expand its offerings, the DBX707 AMR24 Edition stands as a testament to the brand’s dedication to excellence in both the automotive and motorsport arenas.
