Austin Atlantic

See also Austin Westminster, also sold as the A90

The A90 Atlantic was a sporting roadster (and later coupe) produced by the Austin Motor Company from 1948 through 1952. It was the first post-war car engineered from scratch by Austin, and one of the first on the market in the UK.

The Atlantic was designed to appeal to American tastes with art deco styling, chrome accents, and a "flying A" emblem on the front fenders. Despite this, only about 300 of the 7981 produced were sold in the United States.

The A90 provided the 2660 cc straight-4 engine and drivetrain for the Austin-Healey 100.
