The Aston Martin and Bowmore brands share the same vision of creating timeless beauty and a lasting legacy, loyal to their heritage but also embracing new methods and this is reflected in the DBX Bowmore edition. Strips from the copper whiskey stills are inlaid into the side strakes and Bowmore Tweed accents the interior, Q by Aston Martin has once again created a beautiful, limited edition, Aston Martin.”<\/em><\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Q_by_Aston_Martin_DBX_Bowmore_Edition11.jpg\")
\nThe Bowmore DBX is enrobed in a striking paint color, named Bowmore Blue, an existing archive color that has been brought back exclusively by Q by Aston Martin for this car. Customers will have the option to choose an alternative exterior paint color should they so wish. Xenon Grey paint, which displays a blue metallic fleck throughout, will be offered as an additional exterior option. Bowmore-branded copper inlays using copper from the original whisky still have been used to accent the side strakes of the DBX, as a nod to the traditions maintained by the company.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Q_by_Aston_Martin_DBX_Bowmore_Edition20.jpg\")
\nOptional black brake calipers provide a subtlety to the smoked wheels and the overall elegance of the exterior is highlighted by both script and wing Aston Martin badges and Q by Aston Martin fender badges.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Q_by_Aston_Martin_DBX_Bowmore_Edition17.jpg\")
\nCustomers can choose either the Obsidian Monotone or Copper Tan Metallic\/Obsidian Duotone interior, both choices accented throughout by flashes of Bowmore Tweed, reflecting the company\u2019s Islay ancestry. Created by the world-renowned Islay Woollen Mill, which was first established in 1883, the subtle and sophisticated design incorporates copper and blue inspired by the island\u2019s terroir and lochs, making it inherently unique to Bowmore and its island home.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Q_by_Aston_Martin_DBX_Bowmore_Edition3.jpg\")

\nLaunched in 2019, DBX celebrates the Aston Martin design language in a new form. With a unique body architecture engineered just for DBX, the design and proportions reflect the unmistakable style. The 5-seater SUV provides a world of luxury and features a 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8, tuned to deliver 550PS and 700Nm of torque, providing the exhilaration of a modern GT. While it\u2019s not a traditional Aston Martin sports car, the DBX is everything an Aston Martin should be: beautiful, hand-built, and technologically-advanced.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Q_by_Aston_Martin_DBX_Bowmore_Edition18.jpg\")
