For 2023 Aston Martin has unleashed the world’s quickest luxury SUV!
In the world of motorsports, safety is paramount. Every race circuit has its own set of rules and regulations, designed to ensure the safety of drivers, track workers, and spectators alike. One of the key components of this safety system is the safety car – a vehicle that is deployed on the track when there’s an incident, to slow down the racing cars and allow the track to be cleared.
For the 2023 Formula One season, Aston Martin will once again share safety car and medical car duties with Mercedes-Benz, but this time they’ve brought a more powerful SUV – the Aston Martin DBX 707 F1 Safety SUV is a powerful and luxurious machine that is sure to turn heads on the track.
At first glance, the DBX 707 looks like a typical Aston Martin. It has the sleek, aerodynamic lines that are characteristic of the brand, along with the iconic grille and signature headlights. But the DBX 707 F1 Medical SUV is far from typical and has been modified specifically for its role as a safety car, with a range of features designed to make it as safe and effective as possible.
Upgraded Performance
Under the hood, the DBX 707 is powered by a twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V8 engine, capable of producing 707 horsepower and 631 lb-ft of torque. This gives the SUV the speed and agility it needs to keep up with the Formula One race cars. It can accelerate from 0-100km/hr in just 3.3 seconds and has a top speed of 310km/hr.
The DBX 707 has also been fitted with a range of safety features that make it ideal for its role as a safety car. It has a specially designed light bar on the roof, which can be easily seen by drivers on the track. The car’s suspension has been tuned for high-speed cornering, and it has been fitted with high-performance brakes to ensure that it can stop quickly if needed.
What’s Inside the cabin
Inside the high-performance SUV, the driver and co-driver are treated to a luxurious cabin which has been modified for the race track, and fitted with a communications system so the medical team can speak directly with marshals and race officials.
Additional track focused upgrades include GT race car fitted seats with harnesses, fire extinguishers, and a roll cage.
Overall, the Aston Martin DBX 707 F1 Medical SUV is an impressive machine that combines style, speed, and safety in a way that only Aston Martin can. It is sure to be a welcome addition to Formula One circuits around the world in 2023.
