Yes it is true! These facts were revealed by Marcel Beci, Aston Martin’s General Manager on European Operations in a recent interview with the Dutch newspaper, De Telegraaf. It appears that in no way the upcoming Rapide Sedan will not receive a V8 engine because the manufacturer wants power and only the V12 can offer this.
The new Rapide will receive the V12 engine from the DB9, but the source didn’t want to spoil the surprise and we will find this only when the car will be officially launched. According to Beci, the new vehicle will not be just a sedan with big engine, this was designed as a real sports car but with four doors. The new sedan is expected to come with a price tag of 250,000! When will we see it? Few sources confirm its debut at this year’s Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este, but if will not appear then at the Frankfurt Auto Show it will be the most attractive vehicle!
