Pros & Cons

What we love
✓320bhp from a 1,312lb car — 2.8s 0-60mph, 6.8s 0-100mph, and a genuine ~300-mile road range on a 10.56-gallon tank
✓Official Ariel North America build, sold and supported directly from South Boston, Virginia
✓Standard windscreen, DRLs, LED fog lights, and a Thatcham Cat 2 immobilizer — more road-ready out of the box than the UK-spec Atom
✓AIM full-color TFT display with data-logging provision built in, even on the base build
Considerations
✕Not federalized for US road use — sold and registered for track/limited use only (state-dependent)
✕ABS, traction control, and a limited-slip differential are all options, not standard
✕No luggage compartment beyond a small, unquantified storage cubby
✕MPG, CO2, and warranty term are not officially published by Ariel North America
