The Morgan EvaGT finally a reality
From sketch to reality the Morgan EvaGT finally makes its footprint on the asphalt. The curvaceous EvaGT roadster was shown off at the recent Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance.
The goal is to manufacture a practical car that could be used everyday and answer all a family’s transport needs. Although it has two large doors the car can seat four adults and has a large boot (reference the current Morgan Aero SuperSport, but it is considerably deeper on the EvaGT with a full hatch style entry). As all Morgans the car will be fun to drive with sensitive hydraulic power steering and excellent balance. The mass is evenly distributed within the axles and the car has short overhangs.
