The 2026 Aston Martin DB12 S, an upgraded performance model of the DB12, is expected to be unveiled by the end of 2025.
It boasts a sportier design with a stacked exhaust and rear bumper reminiscent of the DBX S. Spotted in a Volante version, it may debut in July 2025, featuring a deeper front spoiler and rectangular vents.
The DB12 S is equipped with Michelin tires on lightweight alloys and offers more power than the standard DB12, with the AMG M177 twin-turbo V8 engine delivering 671 horsepower and 590 pound-feet of torque.
Although Aston Martin is not immediately adopting a new flat-plane crankshaft V8 engine, the DB12 S is expected to be lighter, feature a recalibrated electronic rear differential and stability control, and not directly compete with the Bentley Continental GT Speed or BMW M8 Competition.
