The Aston Martin Rapide, which is a 4-door sportscar from the British firm to challenge the Porsche Panamera and the Mercedes Benz CLS, is now closer than ever before. Aston Martin have issued a press release which means the curtains are going to rise very soon.
The car we knew, wasn’t all the far away from its d-day as it had shed most of its camouflage, the excess along the doors and the headlights were the only misleads in the recent spy shots.
An Aston 6.0-litre V12 throwing out no less than 470bhp (350kW) and 600Nm of torque will transfer the task to a Touchtronic gearbox, which will eventually reach the rear axle of the Aston Martin Rapide.
Aston Martin Director of Design Marek Reichman-
We wanted to make the most beautiful four-door sports car in the world
The Aston Martin Rapide was photographed as it was undergoing formalities over the two years. Recent snaps were taken in Scandinavia during cold weather testing and during a hot lap at the Nurburgring.
