Last week Bertone released a dark teaser picture promising a new concept car for this year’s Geneva Motor Show. Turns out the car in question is indeed a coachbuilt version of the Aston Martin Rapide, and it’s a shooting brake.

According to Autocar, the shooting brake Rapide is called the Jet 2+2 and it is part of Aston’s 60th birthday gifts to itself. This car follows Jet 2, which was a shooting brake version of the 2004 Vanquish.

Mechanically and technically, Jet 2+2 is the same as the standard Rapide, with a 470 horsepower V12 engine at the front, and four individual seats inside the cabin. The styling is remarkably different though, and not just the rear-end. Bertone’s design features a more prominent front grille, the wheel arches are revised, and thanks to the new C-pillar, the whole profile looks kinda cooler. The car also gets new rear bumper and new taillights inspired by the One-77 and the new Vanquish.

Bertone’s Jet 2+2 is not the first attempt at a shooting brake Rapide, as designer Theophilus Chin came up with one a few weeks ago. We have to say though, the Italian effort looks much better.
