(25 reviews)

Customers say

Ariel vehicles are known for their thrilling performance and handling, appealing mainly to those looking for a racetrack experience. Owners love the rapid acceleration and lightweight feel of the Ariel Atom, likening it to a powerful go-kart. However, the lack of everyday usability, safety features, and comfort are notable downsides for many. While the minimalist design is admired, some find the interior lacks polish compared to standard cars.

truck. If you want a nice looking, good performing, solid truck for work or for yourself, and you don't want to spend over 20K on a new car, then this truck's for you. I have one in silver which I got for 18K. Although it could use more power since it's only 4 cylinder 2.7L, the engine it does use is a WORKHORSE, and has been used overseas in industrial and commercial applications for several years. In China, they've had these engines driving belts that pull massive quarry loads. I have made a few modifications to increase overall hp. I also threw out the small tires it comes with and added larger, more robust looking tires. The ride on this truck is excellent for a truck. The access cab has seats for two people that are good for short rides. I use my access cab as extra secured storage, but when I need to drive more than one extra person I can fit two more in the back. This truck is a beauty! The Toyota truck quality is still in play with this truck. The interior looks awesome, and well built...unlike Ford Rangers or Nissan Frontiers. The MPG is incredible for a truck this size. Besides price, this is why I went with a 2wd Access Cab 4 cylinder instead of a 6 cylinder Taco. I get 20-21 city mpg's, and 24-26 highway mpgs on this truck. In conclusion, if you want a beautiful looking truck inside and out, of good quality, with a comfortable ride, a workhorse of an engine, a truck that will last for a loooong time, and you don't need to tow heavy trailers or do off-roading, then go for this Tacoma

Neutral handling characteristics; Power-to-weigh ratio; Quickness and lightness; A great track car!!! If you haven't seen the Top Gear episode (the original British one, not the U.S. copy cat show aka The Three Stooges) that features the Ariel Atom, find it on YouTube, watch it at least twice, and believe Jeremy Clarkson's review. The Ariel Atom is all that and more! Do not expect to get any utility (street use functions) out of this track toy. Driving the Atom on the streets is just silly if not plain unsafe. There is no impact protection whatsoever. N.B. I only recommend this car for track use by skilled drivers.

I went to the track to do some basic testing and a friend of mine showed up with the Ariel and it was something I had never seen before, lest of all heard of. Since my acquaintance knew I was capable and had skills he so kindly allowed me to test drive this machine. What a pleasure. It did take a few labs in order to get the feel for what this machine was all about. My opinion would be that the ride was about as close as you will get to a F1, sure felt like it. It is extremely fast and extremely accurate handling and very stable. I would buy one in a heart beat, but that's not to likely to happen any time soon.
