Aston Martin MENA has commissioned a unique specification called DBS Superleggera “Arabesque,” which has been exclusively created for the Middle East region to pay tribute to Arabian art and design.
Showcasing new Arabic details and featuring lavish personalization via Aston Martin’s bespoke service “Q by Aston Martin,” the Aston Martin DBS Superleggera Arabesque incorporates traditional Middle Eastern elements within its signature design codes.
The DBS Superleggera Arabesque features a carefully judged selection of interior and exterior design and trim modifications. The specification features bespoke materials such as camel hair and silk, as well as inlaid Arabesque patterned carbon fiber throughout.
The exterior is finished in rich Royal Indigo, setting a contrast to any typical Middle Eastern vista. The patterned carbon fiber roof, front splitter, diffuser and rear spoiler unite to seamlessly enhance the DBS Superleggera’s refined lines. The Aston Martin wings are crafted in black enamel, each crafted by hand during a 20-hour process. The duotone interior in Indigo and Coral Sand Bridge of Weir leather delivers an exquisite finish and the Arabesque pattern carries throughout with the quilt pattern on the roof headlining, the seats and head rests, which also feature embroidered Aston Martin wings.

The DBS Superleggera Arabesque features bespoke materials such as camel hair and silk, as well as inlaid Arabesque patterned carbon fiber throughout.
The design is supported by the trademark performance of the DBS Superleggera — the brand’s 5.2-liter twin-turbo V12-engined Super GT flagship boasting 725 PS, 900 Nm of torque, a top speed of 338 kph and blistering acceleration that dispatches 0-100 kph in just 3.4 seconds.
The Arabesque specification will be introduced to more Aston Martin models in the future — including the new DBX SUV.
Aston Martin Lagonda is focused on the creation of exclusive cars and SUVs. The brand fuses the latest technology, hand craftsmanship and timeless design to produce models including the Vantage, DB11, Rapide AMR and DBS Superleggera. The Lagonda brand will be relaunched as the world’s first luxury electric vehicle company. Based in Gaydon, England, Aston Martin Lagonda designs, creates and exports cars that are sold in 53 countries around the world.
Lagonda was founded in 1899 and Aston Martin in 1913. The two brands came together in 1947 when both were purchased by the late Sir David Brown. Under the leadership of Dr. Andy Palmer and a new management team, the group launched its Second Century Plan in 2015 to deliver sustainable long-term growth. The plan is underpinned by the introduction of seven new models including the DB11, new Vantage, DBS Superleggera and an SUV, as well as the development of a new manufacturing center in St. Athan, Wales.
