Aston Martin Introduces Its First Electric -
Rapide E

Aston Martin introduces their first electric Rapide E. Powered by an 800V electrical architecture battery, encased in a Carbon Fibre and Kevlar casing, with a 65kWh installed capacity using over 5600 lithium-ion 18650 format cylindrical cells. These are mounted in a bespoke battery pack where the original 6.0-liter V12, its gearbox, and fuel tank were previously located. This battery system powers two rear-mounted electric motors producing a combined target output of just over 612PS and a colossal 950Nm of torque making it our most powerful Rapide. Rapide E’s exterior and underbody has been aerodynamically optimized and complemented with newly-designed aluminum wheels, created to achieve higher levels of efficiency, frictional loss, and cooling performance. Only 155 of these hand-built supercars will be produced.
