The Aston Martin Rapide is built on the AM / VH platform - the same as the 2-door DB9. The platform was stretched a good 11 inches, and it turned out to be a kind of 4-door coupe, as its creators position the Rapide. Vehicle length - 5019 mm, height - 1359 mm. Relatively short overhangs, long wheelbase (3.02 m) - to freely accommodate 4 passengers in the cabin.

The interior of the Rapide is made in the best traditions of the Aston Martin brand. On the front panel there is wood veneer. Carbon fiber reinforced plastics and brushed aluminum in places, handmade everywhere. Leather upholstery toneoh dressing. By the way, only one master is engaged in interior decoration with leather. This is a guarantee of maintaining a uniform style and the highest quality. The leather is custom made from Scotland and the entire tailoring takes approximately 35 hours.

Individual seats are mounted on both sides of the center console (full length of the cabin); electric heating of cushions and backs, servo control mechanisms with memory. In the back, the Rapide has full two seats that are perfectly tailored for riders. But getting to the second row is not easy. High threshold and low klysh significantly complicate this procedure.

A hinged tailgate provides access to a cargo area from 300 liters (fully seated) to 750 liters when the rear seat backs are folded down.

The styling of the front of the cabin is borrowed from the Aston Martin DB9 - the central tunnel seems to go into the dashboard. It houses the controls for the climate control and the audio system, as well as the buttons for selecting the automatic transmission modes and the ignition switch. There are three more buttons on the front panel at the bottom to addadrenaline rush to the driver and passengers. Pressing one disables the stabilization system (partially or completely), the other activates the sport mode (the engine reacts more sharply to gas, the engine brakes harder when lowering gears), and the third makes the suspension even tougher.

The DB9 inherited a high-torque, powerful engine: a V-shaped 12-cylinder with a working volume of 5935 "cubes". The all-aluminum 48-valve design is tuned for the 477 hp Aston Martin Rapide. at 6 thousand revolutions; the highest torque - 600 Nm. Engine runningwith 6-speed hydromechanical "automatic" ZF Touchtronic II - no options. Although the driver has the possibility of forced control of the automatic transmission - by means of the steering column switches.

The architecture of the Aston Martin Rapide is classic: the engine is in front, the drive wheels are rear. Moreover, the massive gearbox is assigned to the rear axle (transaxle scheme), as is customary for super-sports like the same DB9, Chevrolet Corvette or Ferrari California. Thanks to this arrangement, the Rapide has an ideal "weight distribution" along the axes: 49/51%.

Aston Martin specialists have invested a large part of their talentor in the chassis settings. The principle behind the Rapide's body structure is borrowed from aviation. In order to maintain the best geometry and rigidity of the chassis, the aluminum panels are bonded with industrial glue rather than welding. This is one of the reasons that the Rapide steers easily and accurately, despite the extra pounds, combining sports car tenacity with the smoothness of a limousine.

Suspension front and rear "formula" (Aston Martin DB9) - on double wishbones; correct kinematics. Coil springs, cross stabilizers. And one-pipe (gas-filled) shock absorbers with adjustable stiffness: Adaptive Damping System - adaptive damping system. Sports tires Bridgestone Potenza S001 of unequal axle size: 245 / 40R front and 295 / 35R rear - on 20-inch alloy wheels. The rack and pinion steering mechanism is equipped with a Servotronic servo amplifier, the steering wheel makes 3 turns from lock to lock. Brembo brakes with ventilated discs (390 mm in front and 360 in the rear) of a combined design. The working surfaces are made of special cast iron, while the hubs are made of aluminum alloy; it's easier this way.
