Morgan Motor Company was established in 1909 by H.F.S Morgan with the design of the now iconic Morgan Three Wheeler. This was followed, in 1936, by the Morgan 4-4, based on the Morgan steel chassis.

With over 100years of British car architecture, in 2019, Morgan unveiled the Plus Six, based on the all-new bonded-aluminium CX-Generation platform, powered by a 335 bhp 3.0-litre turbocharged inline six-cylinder from BMW, and coupled to an eight-speed automatic gearbox.

2020 saw the debut of the Plus Four. Based on the same CX-Generation platform as the Plus Six, it replaces the steel chassis Plus 4. Fitted with a 255 bhp 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine, again from BMW, it comes with a choice of an eight-speed automatic or six-speed manual gearbox.

Project description

Morgan Motor Company required a safety device for their line up of vehicles and through the MAPC project Potenza developed a safety device which measured longitudinal acceleration and compared that to the throttle input and controlled intended acceleration of the vehicle. This unit is now in production and is still used on vehicles including line up of cars and also the Ox Truck.
