Morgan stopped making steel chassis cars in 2020. All new Morgan 4-wheel cars use their CX-Generation bonded aluminium platform. The body is constructed using an ash frame with an aluminium skin. The engines are BMW TwinPower 2-litre 4-cylinder turbo or the BMW "B58" TwinPower straight 6-cylinder turbo.

In this modern world, there are a few other small scale British makers that rate a mention, but Morgan remains truly unique.

I can't believe the company got so Morgan it decided to publish an article saying "The company will Morg everywhere until every place has been Morged.", showing their true Morging abilities. This company made me feel Morg to the core, I didn't know I could Morg this badly until I realized that this Morgific company existed.

I’m on my second Morgan, a 2020 Roadster 3.7. This film accurately captures the appeal of Morgan cars. I adore my Morgan. There are sports cars that are faster, better, etc., .but none of them are like Morgan’s.

There's a lot to be said about low production, hand crafted products. Much more interesting than the cookie cutter vehicles of today. Nowadays, cars mostly look similar due to aerodynamic concerns. The Morgans still look very aerodynamic but with more flavor.

those newer models with the classic look are absolutely gorgeous.

Im going to school for welding, would love to get into machining, and i currently work on cars.
I love designing cars and plan to build my own someday. Sounds like a ton of fun.

I love classic designs, whether they're on old or new cars. Morgan is one of my favorite companies for that reason, they're the classic neoclassic company

[MrParacristo]

There are many reasons why Morgan is my absolute favorite car company. I dream of owning a Morgan 3 and hope to one day realize that dream into reality/ thank you for the video!

A good friend of mine John H. Sheally III has several Morgans from a 3 wheel to a Plus 8. He did the photography for one of the Morgan books.

In my first year of college I went on a trip to the morgan factory, it was such a cool experience to see how they made all the cars and also learn about the history of the brand

[WarChallenger]

I aspire to be like this car company, one day. Modern vehicles are nice, but are no longer effective as commuter cars. Too much computerized nonsense to still be affordable; most of it not even required by law. Just greedy companies trying to turn an Altima into a Rolls Royce. To see a modern machine with the soul of a 30s race car is an inspiration.

I've always loved Morgan's. I love the fact they don't really deviate far from their traditional look.

[thebaldyguy]

"Morgan - so far behind they're in front!" Bought mine in 1974 and still have it. TallyHo!

[leojonkers]

A Morgan plus 4 with normal manual gearbox is my favorit car. I once visit there "factory", such a great experience. People super nice, the way they build, wow! The 3 wheeler not for me, but that is just what you want. The plus 4 is in my eyes the most beatiful car of today! I wish I had the money....

Modern tech + classic looks = AWESOME!

I love the Morgan cars, there is so much character in them. I wish I could own and drive one.

[eeblatter]

Morgan is an unique manufacturer and has been that way for over 100 years. They were a family owned company but I think they are now owned by an Italian concern. While they keep some of the traditional methods going their quality and attention to details can be rather lacking.
I was very much interested in getting a Morgan 3W when they came out but the closer I looked at it the more disappointed I became. Now the S&S V-twin motor will not make emission standards so they went with a modern Ford water cooled 3 cylinder under the hood. So I decided to build my own and address the issues I had with the Morgan. See my avatar.

MORGAN IS THE AN ABSOLUTE AUTOMOTIVE DESIRE. GOD BLESS THIS MARQUE & IDENTITY.

[Suprahampton]

Such a shame the Morgan family no longer own the Company

[MatNichols-izdy]

I love it when companies keep what made them special. It takes guts and Morgan has them
