The Ariel Atom V8 engine has 450 horsepower and weighs only 650 kg. This super car can reach 100 km / h in just 2.4 seconds, so we are on the level of Formula 1. The Ariel Atom V8 driving in a wonderful way with a nearly perfect steering response and a good road-holding thanks to its proximity to the ground, while the tires are 15-inch front and 16 rear.
The engine is said as a 3.0-liter V8, which often gives a high-speed oversteer that is easily manageable. The Ariel Atom with all these features comes at a price of € 150,000, which must be added around € 30,000 in taxes. Precisely for this exaggerated price it will be built only 25 examples, which, inter alia, have already been sold.
