Morgan’s £113K Supersport 400 is the firm’s priciest production car. BMW-sourced 3.0-liter inline-six is boosted from 335 hp to 402 hp. Standard handling pack includes Nitron shocks and forged wheels. Morgan has spent decades proving that old-world charm and modern performance can happily share a single-car garage. Now it’s pushed that idea harder than ever with the new Morgan Supersport 400, the Malvern company’s most powerful production car yet. More: Congress Could Kill Three-Wheelers Like Morgan’s With One Line Of Legal Fine Print At the heart of the Supersport 400 sits BMW’s turbocharged 3.0-liter B58 inline-six, the same one found in the Toyota GR Supra, here tuned to produce 402 bhp (406 PS). That makes it the first production Morgan to clear the 400 mark, and burly enough to launch the lightweight two-seater from 0 to 62 mph (100 kmh) in just 3.6 seconds, two tenths quicker than before. That’s serious pace from something that still looks like it should come with flying goggles, though in reality, under the pre-war styling is a state-of-the-art aluminium chassis. Power heads to the rear wheels through a ZF eight-speed automatic gearbox, and buyers can pay extra to add limited-slip qualities to the rear differential. Standard kit includes Morgan’s Dynamic Handling Pack with revised suspension geometry, forged 19-inch Sportlite wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tires, and adjustable Nitron dampers. Those shocks have 24 clicks of tuning, so whether your local roads resemble billiard tables or olde-English cobbles, there’s probably a setting for that, albeit a manually-configured one. Old Feel, Modern Tech Visual upgrades include new front fender vents to improve airflow and help separate the 400 from lesser Supersports, plus contrasting lower body finishes and a new active performance exhaust. Bronze wheels are a tasty £995 ($1,350) option. Inside, it remains analog in spirit, but with contemporary upgrades. So there are new Alcantara trim choices, bespoke stitching, and custom gauges. They may look old-school, but modern electronics run behind the scenes. There’s also an optional aluminum gear selector replacing the standard, boring BMW item that makes you wish the Germans would offer it on their cars. Prices start at £112,965 ($152,600) before taxes, which equates to £135,558 ($183,200) in the UK, up from £105,723 ($142,900) for the stock Supersport that remains in production. Builds kick off next month at Morgan’s Pickersleigh Road home in Malvern, and as ever, each car will be coach-built and heavily customizable, meaning none of those builds ever need to be alike.
