The X-1 prototype is a U.K.-built Ariel Atom, modified to use an electric power system from AC Propulsion instead of the Ariels Honda iVTEC 4-cylinder powerplant.
While the X-1s performance is nowhere near the dino-fueled Atoms (0-100 mph in 6.86 seconds!), it was more than enough to leave the supercars in its dust
