Morgan will launch a near production-ready version of its EV3 concept at the Geneva motor show next month.
For what it's worth the full Autocar preview.
It all looks familiar to me from last year. I hope it isn't and talking to John Wells at the TM MMC do - he explained that because the project has been partly funded through grants, they had to be very transparent as to progress before the design was fully worked up So I am expecting big things at its launch - the teaser certainly does make it look interesting Sorry Stewart I forgot the Autocar link. http://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/motor-shows-geneva-motor-show/morgan-ev3-launch-geneva-motor-showThat makes sense now that everything has to be justified to the Gov prior to launching etc. It must slow things down although providing the much needed investment. I truly hope they get this right and capture some younger commuters alongside the normal demograph.

Smaller version so it shows in the thread. Thanks Richard I still don't know how to do that - I'm guessing the photo has to be hosted somewhere on the internet rather than an image on my phone Don't know if you can do it from a iPhone (etc.). I save to my desktop and upload from there.... Switch to Full Screen Reply and use "File Manager" under the text box for the post.

Interesting the comment about the design cues of the Delorean Morgan should stay away from any relation to DeLorean: The quality was poor The concept finally failed The company filed bankruptcy The owner ended up in jail (and to my feeling the design was only a copy of the Lancia Montecarlo)

I think the Monte Carlo was a better looking car!

I'm guessing the 'Delorean' reference will be the design and shape of nose cowl which seems to have lights mounted in the front

Surely a BMW i3 is cheaper faster carries 4 in comfort?
Where's the upside on the tech here vs what's already on the market?
I'm sure there is a cool
Story but I'm not seeing it....
