Aston Martin DBS Superleggera History
History
Launched in 2018, the DBS Superleggera was the V12 flagship above the DB11 — a 5.2-litre twin-turbo V12 making around 715 PS, wrapped in a more aggressive carbon-bodied form. Its name revived 'Superleggera', the Touring construction principle that had clothed the DB4 sixty years earlier.
It picked up the flagship-GT role previously held by the 2007–2012 DBS (a DB9-based V12 car that itself starred in the Bond films Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace). The DBS Superleggera and its limited 770 Ultimate send-off ran through about 2023.
