Nichols and his CEO John Minett along with several talented individuals set out to create a car utilising the latest technologies while blending retro styling with modern design cues in a car built to be enjoyed on the open road. The 900kg, production-ready
N1A offers an exhilarating, unadulterated driving experience with minimal driver aids.
Power for the N1A comes from a hand-built, naturally-aspirated seven-litre LS3-based V8 engine with 650hp mated to a six-speed gearbox. It has independent front and rear double wishbone suspension with anti-roll bars and rolls on sticky low-profile Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres, 19 inches at the front and 20 inches at the rear.
Modern tech options include traction control, power steering, and switchable ABS.
