2019 Aston Martin Rapide AMR Exterior and Dimensions

主AMR的外观已经出现to eleven and transforms the standard Rapide from a sleek and curvaceous luxury sedan into something that looks more at home on Laguna Seca than the Hollywood hills. The gaping, and somewhat aggressive front grill is carried over from the concept car, as are the round fog lights that hark back to the Vanquish Zagato. The bulbous hood now sports massive cooling vents to help chill that monstrous V12 lurking beneath and is made from carbon fiber to help keep weight off of the front wheels. The Rapide's racing intentions are further accentuated by an all-carbon-fiber front splitter, trunk lip spoiler, and a touring car-style rear diffuser. Aston Martin has blessed the Rapide AMR with a set of 21-inch alloy wheels, the largest on an Aston Martin yet. As if all the carbon fiber and air vents aren't enough to convince you that the Rapide AMR means business, racing stripes run right down the middle of the car, and the colors are customizable of course. Three exterior themes offset the upgrades, including the Signature theme's Stirling Green with lime stripes, while the two remaining themes, Standard and Silhouette, are more sedated in their styling.

The four-door Rapide AMR is a sizeable car and is comparable to the Dodge Challenger Hellcat in terms of length and width, and despite the addition of the go-faster stripes and air vents, there is no hiding the fact that the Rapide has a classic four-door sedan shape that looks more GT than pure sports car. The Rapide AMR slots comfortably within the luxury sedan class in terms of its dimensions. The Rapide AMR rides on a 117.7-inch wheelbase; it's 197.6 inches long, 75.9 inches wide and stands 53.5 inches tall. Extensive use of carbon fiber inside and out, most notably for the hood, has helped to reduce the Rapide's curb weight down to 4,387 pounds. That's 61 pounds lighter than the Dodge Challenger SRT Hellcat, and a significant 243 pounds less than the Porsche Panamera Turbo.
