The 4-door sports car

Price: Rs 13000000 onwardsAn Aston Martin with the power of luxury is how first-time viewers describe the Rapide S. Its unique new styling is exemplified by the rear deck profile, which enhances aerodynamics and also creates a striking front profile. The ‘Golden Ratio’ sits at the heart of every Aston Martin. Balanced from any angle, each exterior line of Rapide S works in concert and every proportion is precisely measured to create a lithe, pure form. A near perfect 48:52 front/ rear weight distribution makes Rapide S a true sports car with four-doors.With a new bonnet structure and seven new body panels the all new Gen4 AM11 engine sits 19 mm lower in the chassis. An aerodynamic profile, enhanced by the new rear ‘flip’, smooths exterior airflow to improve efficiency and performance. A new exterior pack adds carbon fibre to six surfaces, including the centre section of the new front splitter. A side-strake, machined from aluminium, sculpts the side of the car, whilst each bonnet louvre is cast individually from high-density zinc.New optional lightweight forged alloy wheels are unique to Rapide S. 11% lighter than the standard wheel with a 9% improvement in perpendicular mass, these are available in a Silver or Black Diamond Turn finish.

The all-new Rapide Gen 4 AM11 engine translates into a sprint time of only 4.9 secs, 620 Nm of torque and potent power of 558 PS - an increase of more than 17% over its predecessor. It has interior materials in a larges range of colours, trims and options allow you to get an exquisite finish that can be exquisitely personalised as well.
