Meet the New Austin Arrow
The legendary Austin brand is back, and this time it’s cleaner, greener, and a whole lot quieter! Introducing the ultra-minimalist Austin Arrow, an electric roadster poised to rekindle the flames of pre-war motoring excitement without any of the rattle, clank, or soot typical of yesteryear’s vehicles. Yes, dear readers, this isn’t just a fancy idea sketched on a napkin—we’re talking about a practical car on its way to your driveway!
A Nod to the Past
While the modern Austin Arrow is definitely a 2026 model, it whispers sweet nothings of nostalgia, reminiscent of the illustrious Endcliffe Phaeton from 1906. With cycle fenders, leather bonnet straps, and that delightful boat tail coachwork, you could easily imagine it parked outside Toad Hall, sipping tea with the gang. But don’t let its vintage charm fool you; this beauty is a quadricycle marvel that lives by the same regulations as zippy little electric vehicles like the charming Citroën Ami.
Performance that Dazzles
Feel the thrill! The Austin Arrow boasts a nimble 20 hp electric motor cleverly tucked in the rear, allowing it to rocket from zero to sixty in under eight seconds. That’s right! You’ll be cruising faster than a mid-80s Camaro Z28 while feeling the wind whip through your hair at just inches off the ground. Plus, with a 20 kWh lithium-ion battery to keep you smiling for up to 100 miles per charge, weekend adventures are looking bright. Priced starting at 36,995 GBP (approximately ,000 US), it’s the chic little electric roadster you’ve been dreaming about—just don’t ask Micah how to sneak one into the States!
