Aston Martin Rapide “S” Spotted

Our Teamspeed spies have spotted Aston Martin testing an uprated version of its four-door sports saloon near the famous Nurburgring. Likely to be named the Rapide “S”, we spot a new front spoiler design, deeper then on the normal Rapide, and the grille has seemingly grown as well. The lower front spoiler and reviewed air intakes lead us to believe a nice increased power is under the bonnet. Power could increase to as much as 500-520 horsepower, and in order to handle that expect a highly modified chassis setup from the current Rapide. Look for a tuned 6.0-litre unit found in the outgoing DBS to power this one.
