Aston Martin Rapide E

Automobiles

The Aston Martin Rapide E was a planned four-door electric luxury saloon from the British maker Aston Martin, intended for sale from 2019 as the brand's first electric car, and cancelled in January 2020 without any example being built. Aston Martin showed the RapidE Concept after the Geneva motor show of 2015 as a preview, confirmed series production in 2017, and presented the production version on 16 April 2019 at the Shanghai motor show through chief designer Marek Reichman. It was based on the Rapide, borrowed the bonnet and rear diffuser of the Rapide AMR and was developed with Williams Advanced Engineering. Production was to take place at St Athan in Wales, limited to 155 cars. Two rear-axle electric motors gave 610 horsepower and 950 newton metres, a 65 kWh battery at 800 volts charged to 80 percent in 15 minutes, and the claimed range was 200 km on the WLTP cycle.
