There is a chapter in automotive history that belongs to Morgan Motor Company in which men made their own cars and had to prove their efficiency.

THE RECOLLECTION OF MORGAN MOTORS’ history makes for a real journey through time, unlike what happens with other classic cars.

A Morgan can’t be kept on display only. Therefore, to demonstrate its strength and usefulness in real life, Morgan Motors’ three models, the 3 Wheeler, the Classic 4/4 and the Aero, have been brought back to life, keeping modern-day automobile needs in mind.

The 3 Wheeler, which is the iconic three-wheeled model, boasts the S&S 1,983-cc V-twin engine which is mated to Mazda five-speed transmission and produces 82 horsepower. Driving this icon is such a satiating experience that it is incomparable with any other automobile.

The second masterpiece is the Classic 4/4 that honours Morgan’s name. The car has the same British design since 1950s but only in the looks department is it similar to the old icon. Under its hood, it has the Ford Sigma engine of 1,595-cc i4, box Mazda five-speed, 55-litre petrol tank and technological implementation that makes it reach 185 kmph in its frame (which is made by hand).

The third protagonist out of Malvern is called the Aero which is designed to steal all the attention. This retro-futuristic car, in addition to being unique, is also the most powerful of the signature cars, thanks to its BMW 4,799-cc V8 engine and its BMW manual six-speed gearbox. It tops out at 273 kmph.
