An Icon Returns to the U.S.
As the world of fine automobiles continues to evolve, the return of iconic brands like Morgan to the U.S. market brings nostalgic joy to enthusiasts of classic motoring. Next year, Morgan will introduce its Plus Four Roadster, characterized by timeless British craftsmanship featuring hand-formed aluminum bodywork and an elegant ash frame. While the Plus Four maintains vintage charm, the Aero 8 catapults the experience into modernity.
Power and Performance Redefined
The Morgan Aero 8 represents a fusion of old-world aesthetics and contemporary dynamics. Unlike its traditional counterpart, the Aero 8 incorporates a bonded aluminum chassis that enhances structural integrity while maintaining a lightweight profile. Powering this remarkable machine is a robust BMW-sourced 4.4-liter V8 engine, delivering an exhilarating 282 horsepower and 324 pound-feet of torque. With a six-speed manual gearbox, the driving experience resembles that of a finely tuned sports car.
A Blend of Tradition and Innovation
Weighing in at just 2,476 pounds, the Aero 8’s engineering prowess is evident in its fully independent suspension system. This advanced architecture lends a sophisticated touch to handling, allowing drivers to experience the excitement akin to piloting a piston-engined racing aircraft. The Aero 8’s production started in 2000, making it eligible for U.S. importation as the automotive landscape embraces this blend of tradition and innovative technology.
