Startech Takes on the Aston Martin DB11 at Geneva!

Extra power and elegant.

The new Aston Martin DB11 has been a hit since it was first disclosed. It combines a stylish and modern British design of robust engines. Startech, the British tuning arm of Brabus, has taken on the new DB11 V-8 model and made it with added power, style, and tailor-made excitement.

Launching for the first time at the 2018 Geneva Motor Show, the new Startech Aston Martin DB11 came with some added power. The twin-turbocharged 4.0-liter V-8 engine is a Mercedes-AMG unit, so Startech obtained the assistance of Brabus to tune up some power. The team created the Startech PowerXtra SP610 “Powered by Brabus” performance enhancement. This plug-and-play module changes the ignition and injection mapping while incrementing boost pressure. The outcome is a 610 horsepower at 6,000 RPM and 590 lb-ft. of torque from 2,000 to 5,000 RPM, helping the DB11 to touch 62 mph from rest in just 3.8 seconds. The top speed got increased to 193 mph.

To move ahead with added performance, Startech made a new aerodynamic kit build-up from carbon fiber for the DB11 to minimize lift. It all begins with the new carbon fiber front spoiler with tail flaps on either side to enhance stability at high speeds. New side sills extend outwards and channelize air away from the rear wheels for less drag and improved efficiency. At the rear, a naked carbon fiber diffuser sits below the new Startech exhaust finishers and incorporates an LED backup light similar to those used in Formula 1 racing.

As an added bonus, many parts of the Startech DB11 can be made a truly tailor-made sports car. The Geneva Motor Show showcase vehicle sports a Copper-colored roofline along with fender braces and brake calipers.

The Startech DB11 shown at Geneva also wore a bunch of particularly-developed Startech Monostar M wheels. These lightweight alloy wheels feature a five-spoke design and have a Copper pinstripe finish that’s complemented by a center cap cover in Black, Silver, Red or Blue electroplating that looks similar to a center-lock design. Here, the new Startech Monostar M wheels were fitted in a wide 21 x 9.0J front and 21 x 11.5J rear setup with sticky 275/35 ZR21 and 325/25 ZR21 Pirelli P Zero tires.

Inside, Startech’s upholstery specialists can offer the Aston Martin DB11 a fully-modified look. The show car was outfitted with carbon fiber elements, a flat-bottomed Startech sport steering wheel, and scuff plates with a backlit ‘Startech’ logo. Special embroidered leather is used for the seats, door panels, headliner, and rear deck while contrasting floor mats with Copper leather surrounds, make a special atmosphere.

The new Startech upgrades for the Aston Martin DB11 are present on all DB11 variants. The Startech PowerXtra SP610 “Powered by Brabus” upgrade is only present on V-8 models.
