Can anyone provide a list of the exact changes made for this "S" version. Both interior, exterior, engine and Chassis. Thanks

Short and subtle name for a flagship variant.

Brilliantly integrated and offers choice:

A. Exclusively use Aston Martin UI
B. Use AM UI with carplay
C. Use Carplay ultra

Nothing is forced or shoved down your throat like UI that are entirely Google.

I've tested a few AM's lately and played around with the Aston Martin UI. On first use it appears pretty good, but when you concentrate on the finer points of the UI, it's still a way off the Germans, particularly MB. It's decent enough though and a big improvement over their previous generation.

MBUX doesn’t get enough credit on good it is. It’s incredibly responsive and adaptable to driver’s preferences. IMO it’s the best infotainment at the moment. IDrive was the leader from iDrive CIC till iDrive 7. The new curved 8.0 version has become unnecessarily cluttered and layered. I’m a not fan of the instrument cluster options as well, since it doesn’t have a simple, classic design option. The one plus is the excellent augmented reality displayed within the cluster rather than the center screen.

Absolutely. MBUX is currently at the top of the game IMO. Even minor adjustments such as turning augmented reality on or off or adjusting sound profile settings etc. can be accessed easily with quick icons displayed on the main screen, without having to scroll through endless 'app' icons, menus and submenus.

AI integration is also extremely impressive and the voice commands are now getting to the stage where they are pretty much seamless.

I find the iDrive in my sisters X1 cumbersome in comparison.

Well summed up. I haven't lived with drive 8 bimmers or recent Mercs but your thoughts mirror what I see in reviews.
