Rapide S introduces the all-new Rapide Gen 4 AM11 engine. The most technologically advanced, most powerful Rapide engine they ever built. Incredible figures tell the story; 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 our previous model.
The Aston Martin grille is world-renowned, instantly recognised and instantly respected. Rapide S goes further, we designed an assertive new full-face grille as a bold reimagining of our time honoured design cue. Machined by hand from aluminium, this imposing grille gives Rapide S an inimitable front profile. But we didn’t stop there, our engineers ensured that this new grille doesn’t only look stunning, it’s also the largest production grille in the world to meet pedestrian protection requirements.
