Aston Martin Rapide sets off on tour of Alaska  [29/06/2011]

Aston Martin will showcase the durability of its four-door sportscar, the Rapide, by embarking on a tour of the northernmost state of the USA today.


American motoring scribe, Patrick Paternie, will bring the Rapide from Anchorage to Prudhoe Bay, right into the Arctic Circle, in a 1980km round trip.

Using the Dalton Highway, the Rapide will be subject to freezing temperatures and will test not only the robustness of its 6.0-litre V12 and six-speed ZF automatic, but also its stability control systems and its weatherproofing.

The trip will take three days and will showcase the versatility of the British marque – with Rapides being sent to as diverse climates as cold Alaska and boiling Dubai.
