SPIED: Up Close And Personal With The All-new Aston Martin DBX — Is It Me Or Is This Shaping Up NICELY?

In this all-new age of sport-utility vehicles coming from places we never thought they would, I have to say that it's been rather interesting. At this point I don't know if it's a good or bad thing.

For example, I think the world is a better place with the BMW X5M. But then I look at the all-new Bentley Bentayga and Rolls-Royce Cullinan and my eyes begin to hurt.

And there's more on the way.

According to reports, all signs point to Ferrari producing an SUV. Maybe that's why Luca left the business. Aston Martin has joined the fray too. This isn't a huge surprise given that the British marque showed off the DBX concept years ago.

Now we're starting to see the production DBX. Thanks for the fine folks over at Bamford Watch Department, we've got up close images of the all-new DBX prototype.

After observing the pictures for a bit, I started realizing something: I actually am kind of digging its design. Of course it's early and camouflaged but it seems that the Aston may be one of the better crazy luxury SUVs to ship.

What say you, Spies?

I love when photographers get super-ultra-mega close so that the picture shows NOTHING. #idiocy

This is not a super new photo. There are others on the web. The side profile is very nice. It is a sleek design for an SUV. Not too thick, but not too sloped either. It will do fine and become the biggest seller Aston has.

The launch of an Aston SUV is kind of like a steward rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic just before it gets swallowed up into the icy ocean.

The icy ocean of the auto marketplace is about to do the same to Aston. For all the hype, its my sense the DB11 range is not doing so well. IMO the DB11 Volante is one of the few cars that looks WORSE as a convertible.

They are essentially a division of Mercedes Benz.
