No doors, no roof, no compromise.
Form following function and design with a purpose. Race car engineering and quality components.
Double unequal length wishbones, pushrod operated inboard dampers, adjustable outboard rod ends, lightweight fabricated uprights.
Single seater technology made usable and affordable. Adjustment for ride height, toe, and camber to quickly set the car up for driver or track.
Or simply leave it where it is and enjoy. Race car dynamics, reliable drivability. For not just a car but a tool in any environment.
Walk around the Atom and names begin to leap out: JRi, Eibach, Willans. Between the chassis tubes and the spokes of the wheels: Brembo, Goodridge, Tilton, ITG, AIM Technologies.
Adjustable front/rear bias brakes, twin master cylinders, composite bodywork, alloy adjustable pedals, four point harnesses, competition steering rack.
Lift the rear cover, another name. Honda. Makers of the best engines in the world. And for the Atom the Direct Injection, Turbocharged K20C Honda 2.0 liter i- VTEC. 16 valves, variable timing and lift, electronic control.
Low speed tractability with race engine dynamics. Honda provenance, Ariel tuning.
Then, the fabricated stainless exhaust system, ram air system, dedicated electronic control unit.
Settle into the ergonomically molded composite seat and the tubular chassis surrounds you. Protection and space with torsional strength to handle the most aggressive of driving habits.
Engineering dictating aesthetics. Bronze and TIG welded by hand, phosphated and powder coated, the chassis reflects the attention to detail and quality everywhere.
Flip the ignition. You see the TFT dash spring to life.
Turn the suede steering wheel and the lightweight alloy rack responds instantly.
Track or traffic the Atom is ready. Over 500bhp per tonne in standard, unmodified form. Quicker than a Ferrari, more lateral G than a Porsche GT3. Giant killing performance for a fraction of the price. Race car territory with reliability.
