Wells Motor Cars

Wells Motor Cars was founded in 2014 by Robin Wells with the specific vision of creating a lightweight, compact sports car that prioritizes driving feel and mechanical simplicity. After several years of development, the company officially incorporated in 2017 to formalize its manufacturing operations in Warwickshire, England. The company's primary focus has been the development of the Vertige, a mid-engined sports car designed to offer a traditional, analog driving experience. Following extensive testing and refinement, low-volume production of the Vertige commenced in 2021. The vehicle has gained attention for its lightweight construction and manual transmission, appealing to enthusiasts seeking an alternative to modern, software-heavy electric vehicles. As of 2026, the company continues to operate as a micro-sized manufacturer, maintaining a focus on hand-built quality. It has successfully integrated into the British automotive scene, with its vehicles appearing in the British Motor Museum. The company is currently scaling its operations, with plans to increase production capacity through 2027 to meet growing demand for its naturally aspirated sports car.
