![]() ![]() HIPERCAR, with a model name yet to be decided, is not just an Ariel production car, destined to be one of the highest performance and sought after vehicles in the world, but also a launchpad of UK developed technology into other niche, medium volume and ultimately high volume production. This is an important part of Ariel’s future so it has to be right.” But, as ever, we’re different at Ariel and the core of HIPERCAR is the technology, the design and the engineering so that’s what we are showing. What you usually get is an exterior concept with some vague promises about what is happening underneath and how wonderful it’s going to be. To be initially unveiled as a rolling chassis with all componentry visible, Simon Saunders, Director of Ariel, said, “We’re not unveiling final bodywork at this stage and it’s unusual for a car manufacturer to do things this way round. ![]() Phase 1 of the project, undertaken by Ariel with partners Equipmake and Delta Motorsport, will demonstrate both two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive prototypes and will be shown at the Low Carbon Vehicle (LCV) Show at Millbrook on 6 and 7 September 2017. To be available in four-wheel drive and two-wheel drive variants HIPERCAR will offer staggering performance utilising cutting edge, UK developed technology and will be built in Somerset, England by Ariel. As with other Ariel vehicles the focus of HIPERCAR is on extreme performance, agility and usability, now coupled with zero and ultra-low emissions. Standing for High Performance Carbon Reduction, the project is destined for full release in 2019 and Ariel production in 2020 alongside the Atom, Nomad and Ace. Ariel Motor Company, manufacturers of the Atom and Nomad cars and Ace motorcycle, release details of their all new, ultra-high performance, range extended, electric sports car project – HIPERCAR. ![]()
