Reviewer score 69% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autocar have found:

No car of this height and weight is going to act like a coupé half a tonne lighter, but there are hints of Astonness. It feels like you sit relatively low for an SUV, with a high window line. It’s much more car-like than the Range Rover or Bentayga, more crossover than 4x4.

Pros

Fantastic infotainment system
Lots of fun to drive

Cons

It’s too big for some people

Reviewer score 85% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from autoexpress have found:

Aston Martin has gone with what it knows best - applying its technical wizardry to produce the finest-handling SUV available. It's less brash than a Lambo, not as bold as a Bentley and not as commonplace as a Porsche. Although the list price is rather steep, it delivers a great package with genuine 4x4 credentials, family practicality and little sacrifice of power and handling.

Pros

Fantastic 4x4 performance
Stylish looks

Cons

Pricey for what it offers

Reviewers from cnet have found:

The interior of the Aston Martin DBX is 95% awesome and 5% awful. The air vents are flimsy, the plastic gear selector buttons feel cheap and the switchgear on the center console is sort of lousy. Apple CarPlay is finally available, though it annoyingly doesn't occupy the full width of the display.

Pros

Gorgeous interior
Fantastic infotainment tech
Comfortable to drive

Cons

Lackluster tech
Awkward rear end
