The Aston Martin DB12 S is unveiled: sharper, more powerful, more impressive
Aston Martin has unveiled its new DB12 S model. The DB12 S, which perfectly balances performance and luxury, brings the power of the “S” badge to the roads once again.
The DB12 S, descended from the legendary S lineage of the brand, sits at the pinnacle of the DB12 series with more power, agility, and driving feel. This powerful legacy, which began with the DB3S in 1953, has been crowned with unforgettable models such as the Vantage S, Vanquish S, and Rapide S. The new DB12 S carries this tradition into the future with modern engineering, advanced technology, and flawless craftsmanship.
Nevzat Kaya, Chairman of the Board of Aston Martin Turkey, who evaluated this special model, emphasizes that the DB12 S takes the brand's character to a new level:
“The DB12 S model truly excites us. Continuing the S tradition with modern-day technology, this car takes a significant step forward in terms of both performance and driving dynamics compared to its predecessor. It perfectly reflects the brand's character with its power, elegance, and craftsmanship. We believe automotive enthusiasts in Turkey will also show great interest in this special model.”
The DB12 S delivers unparalleled performance in its class, producing 700 PS and 800 Nm of torque with its all-aluminum 4.0-liter V8 twin-turbo engine. Capable of reaching 0 to 100 km/h in just 3.5 seconds, the model proves itself a true grand tourer with a top speed of 325 km/h. Equipped with an enhanced suspension system, recalibrated electronic differential, optimized transmission software, and carbon ceramic brakes, the DB12 S instills complete confidence in the driver with its superior balance and handling, both on the track and on the road. The new Corner Braking Control system ensures flawless control by maintaining the car's line even when braking through corners.
Compared to the DB12, the DB12 S model has undergone a comprehensive update not only in terms of performance but also in design and aerodynamics. The new double-layer front splitter, fixed rear spoiler, redesigned diffuser, and quad exhaust outlets provide both a more aggressive visual stance and increased downforce. The engine software and throttle response have been sharpened, while updates to the suspension system make the driving character more dynamic. Additionally, new 21-inch Evolution wheels, carbon fiber exterior details, and red S badges make the DB12 S instantly recognizable.
In design, Aston Martin's elegance combines with the dynamic lines of performance. The dual-layer front splitter, fixed rear spoiler, powerful rear diffuser, and quad exhaust outlets enhance both the aesthetic and aerodynamic character of the car. New 21-inch Evolution wheels, combined with optional carbon fiber body details, offer a more agile look and lower weight. The DB12 S strikes a perfect balance between performance and lifestyle, available in both Coupe and Volante body styles.
Inside, you can feel the combination of British craftsmanship and modern technology. The driver-focused instrument panel and the cabin, surrounded by elegant lines, make you feel like you're in an Aston Martin in every detail. The S-logo seats, stitched with 2,500 stitches, symbolize the brand's attention to detail. The Accelerate and Inspire S themed interior designs, featuring a combination of Alcantara®️ and semi-aniline leather, bring together both sportiness and luxury. The optional Bowers & Wilkins sound system, carbon fiber interior trim, and red accents of the S Interior Highlights package take the DB12 S's personalization options to the next level.
The Aston Martin DB12 S embodies the brand's “Super Tourer” vision, combining power, elegance, and engineering excellence in a single package. With its sharper, more powerful, and more impressive design, the DB12 S is not just a car, but a statement of character on the road.
Aston Martin Turkey General Manager Mehmet Özgür Konuk provided information about the arrival of this special model in Turkey, stating the following in his announcement:
The DB12 S will be available alongside the DB12 and is positioned as a sportier version. Both the Volante and Coupe versions will hit Turkish roads in spring 2026. This model will further strengthen Aston Martin's strong presence in Turkey. We aim to offer our customers the brand's unique driving experience with a more dynamic and performance-oriented character. The DB12 S promises not only speed and power, but also a driving experience that blends elegance, craftsmanship, and technology. We are confident that Aston Martin enthusiasts in Turkey will welcome this new Super Tourer with excitement."
