What Happened

Morgan Motor Company has announced that its flagship Supersport sports car is now available to order throughout the United States after completing an extensive homologation programme. First unveiled in 2025, the Supersport combines a contemporary interpretation of Morgan's timeless silhouette with the advanced CXV-Generation bonded-aluminium platform, introducing new levels of refinement, usability and driving engagement. Every car is hand built in Malvern using aluminium bodywork formed over a traditional ash wood frame, and each vehicle is individually commissioned with an extensive range of colours, materials and bespoke options.

Bringing Supersport to the United States marks a significant milestone for Morgan Motor Company. Since its introduction, Supersport has established a new direction for our brand, combining contemporary design, advanced engineering and traditional coachbuilding in a flagship that reflects who we are today. We are delighted that, following an extensive program of homologation, customers across the U

For the US market, the Supersport is powered by Morgan's federally approved BMW 2.0L inline four-cylinder B46 TwinPower Turbo engine paired with an eight-speed ZF automatic transmission. The powertrain has been developed to meet applicable federal emissions requirements while delivering responsive performance. The approval was secured under the Replica Vehicle legislation of the FAST Act, and the car has received authorization from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), excluding California. US specification vehicles join the Plus Four and Super 3 in Morgan's American lineup.
