The Ariel Nomad Intro!

We have been anticipating the arrival of the new Ariel Nomad for over a year.  TMI Autotech have been working hard to get the car over to the US.  The first batch of 20 rolling chassis will come over as a kit from Ariel UK.  TMI is assembling them at their impressive new facility in VA.  

We worked closely with TMI to help define the two models that would be offered initially here.  We landed on two specifications: Sport & Tactical.  The Sport is more road focused and the Tactical is more off-road friendly.  Though swapping out the wheels and tires makes either model work in the other environment.  We chose features for each that allowed them to be nicely equipped with road registration in mind.


The first model that TMI built was the Ariel Tactical.  They had some fun with the car and brought it to several shows.  Including some cool pix that they shot.  Our good friend Baer (Ariel Dealer in the NorthEast) came down to VA and made a fun video of the Nomad almost immediately after TMI finished the car.
