This Four-Door Aston Vantage Render Makes No Sense, But We Don't Care

The render game for the new Aston Martin Vantage has been pretty strong thus far. We’ve already seen stunning shooting brake and roadster variants created digitally, and now we have this glorious four-door version.

It’s the work of X-Tomi Design - the same guy behind the roadster we saw last week - and it doesn’t really make much sense. Yes, a replacement for the Rapide saloon is bound to happen at some point, but it’s highly unlikely to derive its styling from the sporty Vantage. It’s more likely to echo the look of the DB11, or it might take on an entirely different aesthetic, given how Aston Martin is trying to create more distinction between its new models.

So, like the shooting brake we saw last week, this is a car that’s going to remain in fantasy land. That’s fine by us: we’re happy just ogling.

Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

new rapide??

Performance wise, AM produces amazing cars, but they really need to change the looks, not some soft touches, something more radical would be welcome. A four dour sedan like is a decent upgrade, practical fast beautiful, so its good on my point.

The new lotus variations look 99% similar to each other, the 5 models displayed on the am website are the vanquish,rapide,vanquish zagato,valkyrie,new v8 vantage and db11 while the rapide and vanquish do look similar they are both older generatiobs , new v8 vantage and db11 have a lot of noticeable differences ,they have completely different front and rear ends . They are a lot more distinctive than the previous generations . And as the article states the 4 door rapide replacement will come at some point.
