Ariel Motor Company
Yeovil Rd
Crewkerne TA18 7NR
United Kingdom
Boutique sports-car manufacturer celebrated for its minimalist, driver-focused machines. Established in 1991, Ariel’s flagship model, the Atom, eschews conventional bodywork in favor of an exposed space-frame and lightweight suspension, delivering razor-sharp handling and blistering acceleration. Every chassis and mechanical sub-assembly is designed, engineered, and hand-assembled at Ariel’s Somerset factory, with an emphasis on mechanical purity and track performance.

Beyond the Atom, Ariel has diversified into limited-run supercar projects (such as the Nomad off-road buggy) and recently introduced the high-power AAR concept based on automotive engine packages. Their R&D team continually tests new materials (including carbon composites and high-strength alloys) and collaborates with racing outfits to refine aerodynamic elements.
