A prestigious coupe that serves as the British luxury automaker’s flagship car, the DBS houses a big V12 engine under its long, sexy hood. Output is rated at 715 horsepower along with 664 pound-feet of torque. A convertible variant called Volante is also part of the DBS lineup. For 2022, changes include new 21-inch alloy wheels. Oh, and the “Superleggera” moniker has been dropped for the sake of simplicity.
