If it means the Valkyrie sees the light of day, then it's okay in my book.

James Bond is getting old. He needs higher seating position now. :D

As someone who used to sell Aston Martin’s for a living, I really thought I would hate this. But I have to concede—they did a really good job injecting that legendary Aston DNA into what I expected to be just another an unwieldy SUV. Good work Aston:)

It’s always a special time when a media embargo is lifted on an awaited car 😀

[Lucas-ckpo]

Im ok with whatever that keeps this brand afloat, even if it means it has to produce the same generic suvs everybody seems to be addicted to.

I had no idea it was that big. Had assumed it was Macan sized!

11:07 caught me completely off-guard. While my initial impression after getting to the end of the video was that this car lives up to the badge and the task it must do, that shot completely sold me. That's an Aston through and through.

Compared to the rest of the "top tier" SUVs this is easily the best looking

Carfection has the best quality car reviews on YouTube. Up there with old Top Gear

[SimonRockman]

I subscribe to a lot of car channels on YouTube. Nothing comes close to Carfection for the quality of production and analysis of the cars.

[Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

My expectations were low and thought it was going to be hideous and contrived, yet it looks like they have actually made a fantastic effort and pulled off making the combination of performance and practicality that other premium manufacturers have either failed at (Bentley) or made absurd (Lambo)...hats off to Aston!
Great vid quality as always, thanks Henry. 👍🏻 10/10

[roshansrinivas]

there is something about carfection videos that calms my mind while learning about cars.

The Aston Martin grill fits well on an SUV unlike BMW's kidney grill on the X7

[AlmightyFSM]

Carfection have the highest quality car films on youtube right now. Hands down. They're a joy to watch.

[alfamonk]

2:20 "does it sound like an Aston-Martin?" Nope, it sounds like every other turbocharged V8 of that displacement be it from Audi, BM or Merc. Slury and farty exhaust.

Another great review team! I was lucky enough to drive the DBX last week and agree with all your points, I very sporty feeling SUV! Let's hope for it's success.

[swanblake]

Easily the best review I've seen on this. Very honest and refreshing. Objectively the Mercedes GLE63 S gives you the same thing with better tech and possibly build quality. I think it is a hard sell to anyone outside of Britian. I hope I'm wrong

[thomashughes]

Amazing film, is there anywhere where I can find behind the scenes of a shoot like this as it's my dream to one day film and photograph cars

[Kelveron]

Henry Catchpole is one of the most honest, objective reviewers out there. He was upfront about people wanting DBX to be a success and you do wonder if that swayed some of the over the top rave reviews of the car. Regardless, brilliant review and great production standards as always.

[joeleonard]

If only they kept using that grill style for the vantage line...
