I'm digging what these models are about. One is able to wring out the machine on public roads without hitting insane speeds. They're in a sweet spot of just fast enough. And yeah, that lightness. :-)
I deduce that's yours in the video, what a beautiful example! I'd say 'If you ever want to sell it..' but a) I suspect that's not an option and b) My pockets are nowhere deep enough. Enjoy it!
@@Ralph2 Hey Ralph! It's not mine, although I own a blue example myself. The owner of the one in the video actually had it for sale a little while back 😉
Just curious for those who have driven one (including the 160), but how does the deceleration compare to a four-cylinder when shifting to a lower gear?
This is part of our 'Signature' range and is available as a separate price list. We are hoping to bring this to the configurator in the near future so watch this space
I own a Caterham 275 and regularly go to drive with 160s as well as 485s. To everyone who thinks this is underpowered: I can assure you it is not. On country roads, where it is at home, it will make street cars thrice as powerful look pretty lame in comparison. Drive this little toy around just _one_ corner, and you will know what I mean.
I would assume contacting a US dealer would give me the best answer, but I will ask anyways. Is this model coming to the US in any form? Thank you for the video.
Caterham are common fare compared to seeing an AZ-1. Around £15k would secure you a decent one too. ...or maybe a Honda S660 for a modern interpretation of the AZ1 for £15k? Makes the £25k Caterham seem rather pricey.
Very Nice! 'm retired and I've lusted after a Caterham most of my adult life and this would have fit the bill nicely. Unfortunately, I've made a deal with myself that I will never buy another internal combustion car. I'm not interested in your full body EV but I'll queue up for the EV Seven when you go into production. I'm pleased that a company like you guys are here.
This looks super fun. I wish they were more accessible in Canada. We can get a fully loaded Miata for $40k but a 420S is about $75k Canadian. I think they’re more comparable in UK, no?
Ford are stopping production of the 1.6 Sigma Engine so Caterham can't use them any more in the existing 270 and 310 models. I believe they're going to relaunch both models with detuned 2.0 Duratec engines fairly soon.
Ah! Good to know. I was in the process of buying a 275 in Portugal. The available models at the moment were the 1600 super seven, the 275, the 485 and the 485 CSR. Now, the super seven and the 275 are gone and the 170 walked in. The 170 doesn’t appeal to me and the 485 would be wasted on me. And the price of the beast is terrifying. This lad is gonna wait, then. Thanks mate.
Frankly, if the Swiss agent was charging what everyone else is paying for them in Europe, I would have bought one right away. But he actually believes no can can use the net to discover just how much less they could be getting them for. I really think he is penalizing Caterham's potential in what is in effect a very small market, but with an average monthly income of over 5,000 Pounds a month, & a serious love of sports cars. Please relay this to the BIG BOSS at Caterham. Thank you :)
@@apexerman1 I actually never heard of it, but I'll be doing some research.. I've only heard of Caterham, Goblin, MK cars so far. I wanted to see if anyone ever decided to make the gear box automatic. But I'm gonna learn manual regardless of the matter.
@@paulcherry2418 Don't be put off by a manual! They seem to be regarded in the US and other places with lots of autos as being difficult but they aren't scary at all after a couple hours in one

Great concept, light, small and quick
Love the concept! As an AZ-1 owner myself I can attest to the fun nature of the 660 ccm *6A Suzuki engine

Love kei cars..

South Africa will be waiting for SV model of the 170
How can I get that brown leather. It’s not an option on the car configurator.

Hi, amazing car, does it have a tiny little bit of trunk area for a backback to go on a weekend tour?
OMG where did you get that Autozam AZ1
We have our ways ;)
@@HWMCaterham Euan - you cheeky....
I might have missed this, but can you get the 170 in large chassis with lowered floor?
Shame the 160/170 is not available in the US.
i absolutely love it

Did the 170 available in Indonesia?

Have you ever made a left hand drive model?
Hi Steven
All left hand drive markets will have left hand drive cars.
sorry but this just made me want to get an Az-1 :D

Is it comfortable to sit in it with a height of 190cm?
Silly question being a Caterham but may I ask what the mpg figures are please?
25k miles done in my 160s at 57 mpg.
@@paulmunro831 thank you!
@@jim_jam_dseries We don't officially quote MPG due to the nature of the cars, but great to see owners getting great MPG

Wish financing was available in USA!
Heck, just wishing the car was available here!
So sad these cannot be sold directly in the USA. Would scoop up one right away!
I would prefer this rather than a Jimny
Hope it is available in Hong Kong
Ok, but… why kill the 270/275 at the same time?

I have a serious question... I'm in the USA, will it is these cars made with an automatic transmission that'll give you the same feeling & experience?
Hi Paul
Unfortunately we do not have any plans for an automatic transmission
@@HWMCaterham Awww.... Thanks, I appreciate the reply...
Paul, have you considered the Vanderhall Venice? I wanted the vehicle in a manual, but they only make an automatic.

If only it had a decent removable hard top. Or is thereone?
They have some aftermarket ones.
Please let these in Australia!
Yeah it's a shame we won't get this in Australia, won't pass ADR we can only get the wider SV chassis, sad I would love this car!
shame it got £6000 more expensive
Need some sound deadening when recording videos like this. Echo is horrendous!
Hi Henry, thank you for the feedback. Unfortunately we are very limited by where we can film these with our showroom being the only place.
No Lie
Crap Audio again and again ...
Ugh !
Unfortunately this is recorded in an active showroom and we are very limited in what we can do regarding audio👍
