This high end suave sedan which alternates as a hatchback is serious in making a head-on clash with its obvious competitors — the Porsche Panamera, Bentley Continental GT/Flying Spur, Maserati Quattroporte and Mercedes Benz CL 63 MG. Yet, a closer look at its positioning, one can easily determine that it is going for other segments as well. This sports car is also gunning for the high-end market of top spec BMW X6, Porsche Cayenne and even the Range Rover.
The Astin Martin Rapide launch signals the official entry of the car company into 4-door sports car niche. This engineering masterpiece embodies the core values and thrusts of Aston Martin whose main pre-occupation is to draw, not only the attention of serious buyers, but their fat wallets as well and away from its known rival, Porsche Panamera.
While the Aston Martin Rapide looks spectacular on paper, a close encounter with this Aston creation is simply breathtaking. Its elegant lines and luxurious design are enough to make you review the aspects of your current financial portfolio in order to drive one home. Serious buyers must consider the following reasons why one with the financial wherewithal should go for Aston Martin Rapide.
The Aston Martin Rapide, with its 4 swan-wing doors, accommodates 4 adults. At 301 litre space, its rear compartment provides for generous accommodation. With a movable bulkhead and foldable rear seats, you get a flat rear-loading 701 litre space that is perfect for unwieldy stuff such as sports bags or sets of skis. This makes it a truly all-around sports car you can rely on anytime, anywhere.
At a top-end price of $366,280, the Aston Martin Rapide scores high in critical elements that set it apart from its siblings. This suave sports car is larger than its predecessors, DB9 and DBS, but retains the familiar Aston Martin signature design defined by vertical/horizontal aluminum-based architecture. Its power comes from distinctive Aston Martin front mid-mounted 6.0-litre V12 engine. It hits 100 kph in 5.2 seconds and delivers a top speed of 296 kph.
