Aston Martin is considering the development of a lighter, stripped-back version of its DBX SUV, CarExpert reports. While the British luxury carmaker has not confirmed plans for such a model, Aston Martin's senior vehicle engineering manager, Andy Tokley, stated that a lighter DBX has been considered since the beginning of the project.
Tokley added that it would be quite easy to remove some mass from the vehicle. This could be done by taking out some of the standard yet non-essential features, such as swapping the rear bench for two individual seats. They can also remove the standard glass roof and electric power blind to shave 55 pounds (25 kilograms) on the top end of the super SUV.
