Less than two years after being unveiled as a concept, Aston Martin’s all-electric RapidE will enter production in 2019.

Set for a limited production run of 155 cars, it will be the company’s first all-electric model. RapidE sees a continuation of the collaboration with Williams Advanced Engineering who worked on the original plans.

Based upon the forthcoming Rapide AMR concept, RapidE will deliver four-door sports car looks and dynamics of the Rapide S powered by an all-electric powertrain replacing the six-litre V12 engine.

More information will be revealed in due course.
