[Morgan Motor Company](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/supersport), a British automaker specializing in retro-inspired vehicles, has announced the launch of the [Morgan Super 3](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plus-8-gtr), the company's first all-new model since the Aero 8, which was released in 2000.

The new vehicle draws inspiration from Morgan's '20s-era V-twin-engined three-wheelers. As a result, the Morgan Super 3's appearance resembles that of a fighter jet built for the road. In terms of features, the unconventional new model is made from a three-part aluminum construction designed to adhere to a unique monocoque structure.

Powering the Morgan Super 3 is a 1.5L [Ford](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ford-1) three-cylinder engine that is capable of producing 118 hp and 110 lb-ft of torque. The robust engine is able to take riders from 0-60 in as little as seven seconds while reaching top speeds of 130mph.
