Bertone Makes a One-Off Shooting Brake Model Out of the Aston Martin Rapide

 

One very lucky (and wealthy…) Aston Martin collector from Britain will soon get his hands on a one-off, shooting brake version of the Rapide sports sedan named the Jet 2+2, which was made by Bertone, but not before the Italian coachbuilder reveals the car to the public at next week's 83rd Geneva International Auto Show.

One very lucky (and wealthy…) Aston Martin collector from Britain will soon get his hands on a one-off, shooting brake version of the Rapide sports sedan named the Jet 2+2, which was made by Bertone, but not before the Italian coachbuilder reveals the car to the public at next week's 83rd Geneva International Auto Show.

Featuring a similar body style to last year's Porsche Panamera Sports Turismo concept, the Rapide Jet 2+2 gains a stretched roofline along with a redesigned C-pillar, muscular rear fenders and updated front and rear ends. 

 The interior of the car has a 2+2 seating layout and has been customized from top to bottom with new colors and materials. 

For its motivation, the Jet 2+2 uses the outgoing Rapide's 470hp and 600 Nm (443 lb-ft) V12 engine instead of the newer Rapide S' 550hp (565PS) and 620 Nm (457 lb-ft) unit, with the latter also schedule for a world premiere in Switzerland.
The one-off Jet 2+2 also celebrates 60 decades of cooperation between Bertone and Aston Martin.
