Morgan used this week's 2018 Geneva International Motor Show to introduce the Plus 8 50th Anniversary Edition. As the name suggests, the car, of which just 50 units will be built, celebrates the 50th anniversary of the Plus 8 line. Morgan tells us that well over 6,000 of the V-8-powered sports cars have rolled off the line at the company's Malvern, England plant since production started in 1968. The Plus 8 is currently powered by a 4.4-liter V-8 delivering 367 horsepower, and the Plus 8 50th Anniversary Edition in Geneva will be the last to sport the BMW-sourced engine. Plus 8s also come with...

Vanderhall Edison² electric 3-wheeler looks to beat Morgan to the punchVanderhall is a company best known for its take on the reverse trike. These $30,000-or-so 3-wheelers are a fun alternative to driving any sort of normal 4-wheel means of conveyance.

The Morgan EV3 will finally whir to life in 2018Do you remember the Morgan 3 Wheeler? You should, because it remains a hilariously enjoyable machine that delivers far more fun than you might expect. From its buzzy S&S-supplied V-twin engine and cog-swapper swiped from the MX-5, the 3 Wheeler is an incredibly pure dose of heritage styling and...

Loophole could allow new Morgans to be imported to U.S.British sports car builder Morgan adheres to tradition like no one else, which is why its retro roadsters are a rare sight in the United States.

Tradition reigns supreme at British sports car builder Morgan, but the brand is taking a giant leap into the 21st century with its new, all-electric EV3 that it debuted this week at the 2016 Geneva Motor Show. It may have just three wheels, but the EV3 is Morgan's first production electric car, and it boasts specs not that far off from the brand's gasoline 3 Wheeler. In place of an 82-horsepower gas motor, the EV3 swaps in a 62-pony electric motor powered by a lithium-ion battery. Rounding out the myriad changes are new carbon fiber composite body panels that more than offset the new electric...
