Introducing The DBS 770 Ultimate As Aston Martin’s Most Powerful Production Car

Aston Martin has long been synonymous with high-performance luxury, and since 2018, the DBS has stood at the zenith of its series production lineup.

Now, as the current generation of the DBS approaches its final chapter, the British automaker has pulled back the curtain on the DBS 770 Ultimate, a model poised to redefine what we understand about super GT excellence.

The DBS 770 Ultimate is not just a car; it is an epitome of automotive grandeur, crafted to be the ultimate expression of Aston Martin’s design and engineering prowess.

With production numbers capped at a mere 300 Coupes and 199 Volantes, each example of the DBS 770 Ultimate was spoken for even before the first one left the factory floor. This is a celebration of the DBS’s legacy—a magnificent sendoff for the model that has epitomized performance and prestige.

At the heart of the DBS 770 Ultimate lies an engineering marvel: a 5.2-liter twin-turbo V12 engine that churns out a staggering 770 horsepower and 900 Newton-meters of torque.

This new iteration of the V12 not only boasts a 7% increase in turbo boost pressure but also features refined air and ignition pathways that contribute to its breathtaking 211 mph top speed. The performance is as dramatic as it is potent, promising an exhilarating driving experience with a symphony of V12 power.

The transmission and drivetrain have also received meticulous attention. The DBS 770 Ultimate utilizes a ZF 8-speed automatic transmission paired with a mechanically limited-slip differential, both tailored to enhance driving engagement.

New calibration for the transmission amplifies shift speeds and driver interaction, ensuring that every acceleration feels both immediate and exhilarating.

Beyond the performance upgrades, Aston Martin has elevated the DBS 770 Ultimate’s handling to new heights. A new solid-mounted steering column provides a more direct and responsive connection to the road, while a 25% increase in front-end lateral stiffness and a 3% boost in global torsional rigidity refine the car’s dynamic capabilities.

The Adaptive Damping System also benefits from a bespoke calibration, balancing superb handling with the luxurious ride that defines the DBS lineage.

The DBS 770 Ultimate’s design is as striking as its performance. Its exterior features a bold and functional aesthetic, highlighted by a dramatic ‘horse-shoe’ engine vent on the clamshell bonnet and a redesigned front splitter.

These elements not only enhance cooling efficiency but also pay homage to past V12 models. Carbon fiber accents and a unique rear diffuser underscore its special status and ensure it commands attention from any angle.

Aston Martin has also introduced a new 21-inch wheel design for the DBS 770 Ultimate, inspired by the high-performance Valkyrie and Victor models.

Buyers can choose from a range of finishes, including Satin Silver, Satin Black, and a sophisticated Satin Black with Diamond Turned option. Each wheel is wrapped in Pirelli P Zero high-performance tires, ensuring that the car’s handling and performance match its striking appearance.

Inside, the DBS 770 Ultimate continues the theme of exclusivity and opulence. The cabin features Sports Plus Seats upholstered in semi-aniline leather and Alcantara, with a bespoke quilted pattern and a distinctive contrast stitch.

A laser-etched DBS 770 Ultimate logo on the center armrest and standard Carbon Fiber Gearshift paddles reinforce the car’s special status. For those seeking further customization, Aston Martin’s Q by Aston Martin program offers an array of bespoke options.

Roberto Fedeli, Aston Martin’s Chief Technology Officer, encapsulates the significance of the DBS 770 Ultimate: “When an iconic model generation reaches the end of production, it is essential to mark the occasion with something special.

In the case of the DBS 770 Ultimate, we have spared nothing in ensuring the final version of our current series production flagship is the best.”

As the final chapter for the current DBS model draws to a close, the DBS 770 Ultimate stands as a testament to Aston Martin’s commitment to innovation, performance, and luxury. It is not merely a farewell to a beloved model but a bold statement of the brand’s relentless pursuit of automotive excellence.
