British custom carmaker Ariel has taken their infamous Atom track-day racer & turned it into an off-road, sandrail-style dune buggy. Under the hood of this open wheel 2-seater is Honda’s 2.4-liter i-VTEC engine. Delivering 232 hp and 221 lb-ft of torque via a six-speed close ratio manual transmission, the 1477-lb Nomad can race from 0-60mph in 3.4 seconds to a top speed of 125 mph.
