Well no news yet from Morgan, but I am starting to think about colours. Not many EV3s to choose colours from yet though, here's what I have found so far:
Itching for an update from Morgan.
I'm sure it won't be long....the factory are famously good at keeping to dates and keeping people informed.

I wonder if this may be the answer to battery vehicles: Alternative to batteries?

This tech has had numerous announcements and was meant to be commercial by 2015 - - a few demos have failed to materialise. I suspect the "kings clothes" in search of more money to keep researchers playing!!!!!

Cheers Owd Well rumours in the 3wheeler forum here: Selfridges EV3 thread suggest production is pushed out to 2018, hopefully we will get some formal information from the factory soon as it is radio silence at the moment. But for a 4 week wait and a mere €1792 you could get a 1:8 scale model: Wespe models EV3 page link In the meantime, I am trying out an i3 for two days tomorrow as it seems I will have a boring motorway commute for the next 12 months due to a new project at work, so might be an interesting stopgap.

Well, I just spoke to the dealer and latest news is that Morgan has decided to change battery supplier. A new supplier has been identified and the new batteries are now under test. They need to complete the reliability testing and the current plan is to start production build of the Selfridges cars in Q4 2017. There may be some change to specs i.e. performance and range and we should get an announcement at the Geneva show in March.

To be fair, battery technology is constantly moving on so we could be looking at better performance. But I am an optimist

Is there any further news on the progress of the EV3 ?
It all seems to have gone awfully quiet on that front.
