The Ariel Quark is the predecessor to the well loved Ariel Atom. The Quark is smaller in nearly every way, save power and speed. Powered by a modified Honda K20C1 inline-4 making just over 350 horsepower, this beast is ready for anything you throw at it. Just don’t throw hauling anything at it. It has yet to perform a lap around the Nürburgring, but there is one scheduled by Ariel in late 2024, according to leaked information. This super fast, super light automobile is sure to threaten the top 5 production cars at the Ring, possibly even the AMG One itself. “We designed this car to be as extreme as possible,” remarked the designer, Simon Saunders. “The Atom was intense, but this takes it up a notch.” Automobile fans everywhere are looking forward for this mini monster’s Ring run, with Car and Driver saying, “The Quark will either drive away victorious or on the back of a wrecker.” Several high name drivers, including F1 champion Fernando Alonso, have expressed interest in piloting this incredible automobile through the Green [word scratch doesn’t like]. Be on the lookout for further information when it is released.
