For a car that’s more than five metres long it feels nimble and compact when you’re driving. The way in which it gathers momentum so smoothly from 3000-4000rpm in the higher gears is testimony to the strong, even flow of torque that’s available; rarely does it seem necessary to venture much beyond this point in the rev range.
But when you do, another side of the Rapide’s personality is revealed. Between 5000rpm and the red line it becomes an altogether more aggressive, more responsive machine, emitting a fairly magnificent V12 sound from its previously subdued engine bay. Inside is the ‘bespoke touch’, this particular vehicle comes with an exquisite alcantara sport steering wheel and instrument binnacle. The Rapide’s familiar mix of soft English leathers and bare-metal switches complements the interior.
