Morgan Aero SuperSports

The Aero SuperSports is the absolute flagship of the Morgan model range – the culmination of over 100-years of engineering excellence and driving passion.

It has a modern all-aluminium chassis, fully-independent suspension all round and a BMW 4.8 litre V8 engine which produces 270 kW of power and 490 Nm of torque.

In standard trim, it is equipped with a 6-speed automatic gearbox, but a 6-speed manual gearbox is also available as a no-cost option
The aluminium bodywork of the Aero SuperSports is Superformed, a process by which the whole car is effectively blown into shape, The passenger compartment has a layer of ash hardwood sandwiched between the alloy outer body panels and the rigid aluminium chassis. This wood will absorb energy and will help maintain the longevity of the alloy body over the life of the car. Morgan calls this process 21st Century Coach building

If the V8 engine is the heart of the SuperSports, then its bespoke aluminium chassis is what gives it its unique Morgan character. Developed under racing conditions, the lightweight chassis is strong and provides the sturdy basis for the all-independent suspension.

With its lightweight construction, weighing only 1180 kg, the Aero SuperSports sprints to 100 km/h in 4.5 seconds.

The aluminium roof panels store neatly in the boot, adding fresh air fun to the journey. Alternatively with the roof panels in place, the cosy cockpit environment makes the SuperSports a sublime luxury touring car.
