2021 Aston Martin DB11 vs. 2021 Aston Martin DBS

An Aston Martin vehicle is the ultimate dream, marrying luxury design with fast, sports-like performance. However, your dream car might differ from one of another San Antonio driver, which is why you have the freedom to explore various models in the Aston Martin lineup, including the DB11 and DBS. Known as the classically Aston Martin, the DB11 stays true to the brand’s roots, making it easy to recognize. The DBS embodies the signature touches of the brand, but elevates its features to the ultimate level for an all-in experience. Explore how these models compare below with our team at Aston Martin Houston!

DB11 vs. DBS | Exterior Design

Whether you see an Aston Martin speeding past you or one parked in Sugarland, you will know the look of one. Especially for a DB11, you will see familiar elements, such as the iconic grille, clamshell hood, and the Aston Martin Aeroblade™. You will still see these elements in the design of the DBS, but they will be more accentuated and broader. Below are some of the standard design features for respective models.

Aston Martin DB11 Standard Design Features

• Gloss Black lower body package
• Red tail lights
• 20-inch 10 spoke, gloss black & diamond turned, directional wheels

Aston Martin DBS Standard Design Features

• 2×2 Twill Gloss Carbon Fibre lower body package
• 21-inch ten twin spoke, gloss silver wheel

The DB11 design is timeless and celebrates the elegance of the brand. However, if you are looking for a vehicle with a more aggressive design to stand out even more, then you can find that effect in a new DBS. With plenty of standard and available design packages on both models, you can also customize the look according to your taste.
