History


After the Morgan Plus 8 was discontinued in 2018, Morgan presented the successor model, the Plus Six, based on a new glued aluminum platform at the 89th Geneva Motor Show in March 2019. Compared to the old platform, the torsional rigidity is increased by 100 percent and the weight of the new basic structure was reduced by 100 kg (220 lb). The body still sits on an ash wood frame, which has been significantly reinforced compared to the previous series. [1]

At the market launch, the roadster is available in two models - Emerald and Moonstone.[1]


Technical characteristics


The Plus Six is based on a new bonded aluminium platform associated with a wooden frame called "CX-Generation", offering increased torsional rigidity by 100% compared to the previous aluminum platform used by other Morgan models. The wheelbase is extended by 20 mm, contributing to the 31% increase in interior space.[2]

The Plus Six is powered by the 335 hp (250 kW; 340 PS) BMW B58 in-line six-cylinder petrol engine and is notably the first model from Morgan equipped with a turbocharger from the factory. The vehicle accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 4.2 seconds and the top speed is given as 267 km/h (166 mph).[1]
