Ariel Motor Company has revealed the Atom 4RR, the most powerful Atom ever built, to mark the 25th anniversary of its iconic lightweight track car. Limited to 25 units, the made-to-order Atom 4RR packs a bespoke turbocharged Honda 2L engine producing 525 hp and 405 lb-ft of torque, pushing the limits of Ariel’s already extreme performance DNA.
Based on the Atom 4R platform, the 4RR is designed for serious track enthusiasts, blending road-legal capability with circuit-focused engineering. The upgraded engine features extensive internal enhancements and optimized oil and fuel systems, delivering dyno-tested performance aimed at the most demanding drivers. The Atom 4RR honors Ariel’s 25-year legacy of high-performance minimalism, dating back to the original Atom’s launch in 2000. Known for its radically open chassis and lightweight construction, the Atom helped redefine British sports car design.
Full specifications and pricing for the Atom 4RR will be announced later this year, but Ariel has confirmed this special edition reflects the brand’s commitment to performance, craftsmanship and an unfiltered driving experience.
