About this generation

A high-performance version of the DB9, engineered for maximum speed and driving pleasure.

The first-generation DBS was introduced as a more aggressive and potent interpretation of the DB9 platform. The car featured an uprated V12, carbon-ceramic brakes, and retuned suspension, making it track-focused. With its wider wheel arches, aggressive air intakes, and a featured role in the James Bond film series, the DBS became one of the most recognizable and desirable Aston Martin sports cars of the early 21st century.
