slngsht Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Chinese for Atom: ?? :ack: China has been pushing hard into the auto industry, so I guess it'll only be a matter of time before more fringe / exotic chinese cars start showing up. One thing is for sure... Rotus won't be one of them
solder_guy Posted September 10, 2007 Posted September 10, 2007 Rotus won't be one of them Remember that Custer once contemplated exporting the Rotus to Japan! Rob "Ariel Motor Co has set up a joint venture to make and sell its Atom sports cars in China. According to Ariel’s MD Simon Saunders, UK production will continue in Somerset but this new Chinese production facility will cater for the burgeoning Asian market. Saunders wants Atom to be No1 sports car in China."

If they can keep up the quality control, nothing wrong with it I suppose.
