The Rapide is actually more of a Grand Tourer to drive than a thoroughbred sports car and the steering feels correspondingly light. However unlike high-end luxury sedans such as the BMW 7-Series or the Mercedes S-Class there are none of the meandering side to side motions that you might experience whilst cornering. In the Rapide the suspension can be tightened up even further to give a very firm ride. Engage sport mode and you can increase throttle response and the six speed transmission holds the revs even higher making acceleration sharper.
The main purpose of the Rapide, however, is to allow for two extra passengers to sit comfortably in the rear seats. The rear seats can fold down for a massive trunk or you can leave them up to fit two adults comfortably for an average trip. And with the DVD system for the rear seats they won't get bored, or you could decide to listen to the amazing Bang & Olufsen stereo system.
