Aston Martin has updated the Rapide for 2015.

The Rapide S will hit 60 MPH from a standstill in just 4.2 seconds thanks to the 6.0-liter V-12 engine that pumps out 552 HP. It will reach a top speed of 203 mph, which is impressive for any supercar, let alone a sedan. The new 8-speed ZF gearbox improves performance by allowing faster shifts and a greater range.

The Rapide S does not have the boisterous bodywork of other cars in its class, but its sharp curves and upturned back spoiler are not just designed to look good—they also increase downforce.

On the inside you will find Alcantara trim and plush leather seats. The backseat is not the most spacious compared to other luxury sedans, however backseat passengers are simply making a sacrifice for the sake of performance as the car needed room for a rear transaxle and an aerodynamic design.

The exterior and interior are available in several colors. Pricing starts at $204,995.
