Aston Martin DB12 är redan i grundutförande såklart en ytterst potent sportkärra men det räcker inte enligt den brittiska, Bond-sponsrande sportbilstillverkaren som nu rullar ut en värre version som de enligt gammal god vana trogen kallar för S, rätt och slätt. DB12 S har 690 hästkrafter istället för 671 som i standardversionen och detta via Astons V8:e på fyra liter. Chassit är styvare, dämparna bättre och bromsarna vassare (de är naturligtvis keramiska och har lånat teknologi från hyperbilen Valkyrie), också.
"DB12 S is built for those who set the pace. Who shape the world. Who look forward, not back. The unmistakable 'S' badge, a signal of unparalleled performance, engineered to lead. Unleashing 700PS and 800Nm of torque. Mastering 0-60 mph in a blistering 3.4 seconds. With an aggressively sculpted exterior and lightweighting technologies that emphatically declare its sporting purpose. Delivering class-leading performance with an intensified dynamic edge. A Super Tourer for those who make all roads their own.
DB12 S stands as the most powerful front-engine V8-powered non-hybrid model in its class. Featuring a recalibrated 8-speed automatic gearbox with rapid 120-millisecond shifts, ensuring immediate response. Handling is sharpened through improved damper software, optimised Electronic Differential (E-Diff), and a thicker anti-roll bar, delivering exceptional agility. Standard Carbon Ceramic Brakes enhance both stopping power and significantly reduce unsprung mass. Its assertive character is further amplified by a new muscular exhaust sound. This is a machine honed for absolute precision, with an indomitable attitude."
