2026 Aston Martin DB12 review

Aston Martin DB12: built for the drive, not the errand. Illustrative review

7.8/10 OffLot expert score

The 2026 Aston Martin DB12 is a strong contender in its class. Looks the part; sharp steering and a willing chassis. Limited cargo space and premium fuel recommended, so test the trim you'd actually buy. Starting around $250,000, it costs more than most direct rivals.

Great daily driver

Bought it for the weekend drives and it has handled everything so far. Fuel economy has been close to the sticker in mixed driving.

★★★★☆Camille C. · Kansas City, MO · 13 months owned
Exactly what we needed

We cross-shopped three others and this won on steering feel. the firm ride is the trade-off.

★★★★☆Hannah F. · Tampa, FL · 26 months owned
Great daily driver

Twelve thousand miles in. Nothing has gone wrong, dealer service has been easy, and the steering feel still impresses passengers.
