The New Morgan Supersport 400 Is Powered by the Engine You Already Love
Merging power with presence.
Morgan is elevating its performance credentials with the official debut of the Supersport 400, the most powerful production vehicle in Morgan’s 117-year history. The flagship model represents a significant shift toward modern high-performance engineering and is the first production Morgan to exceed the 400 bhp threshold.
The power plant of the Supersport 400 is a BMW-sourced 3.0L inline-six turbocharged engine – the B58 specifically, found in its “40i” models and notoriously in the Toyota GR Supra. This ‘01’ iteration however is tuned to deliver 402 bhp and 369 lb-ft of torque. Power is managed via an eight-speed ZF automatic gearbox, propelling the car from 0-62 mph in 3.6 seconds with a top speed of 180 mph. Built on the bonded CXV aluminum platform, the vehicle maintains a lean curb weight of 1,170 kg (~2,580 lbs.), resulting in a power-to-weight ratio of 344 bhp/ton.
Dynamics are refined through a standard Dynamic Handling Pack, featuring 24-click adjustable Nitron dampers and revised suspension geometry for enhanced cornering precision. The exterior receives a “purposeful evolution” with functional front wing vents and a move to gloss-finished lower bodywork. For aesthetics, the Supersport 400 sits on 19” lightweight forged Sportlite wheels wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport 5 tires – the design is reminiscent of classic 90s sports car shapes and looks amazing. Inside, a mature CMF strategy introduces Alcantara upholstery, bespoke instrument dials from Caerbont, and an exclusive anodized aluminum gear selector.
Priced from £112,965 GBP (approx. $152,000 USD), the Supersport 400 is available to order now, with production starting in May 2026.
