XP-1 is a key tool for ensuring that the characteristics of past and present Morgan models that have attracted so many admirers, transition into future electric Morgan sports cars. Maintaining the principles of being lightweight, analogue, engaging and most importantly, a joy to drive are key to the future product strategy of Morgan’s electric future. XP-1’s battery, motor and inverter combination represents Morgan’s first ever powertrain, be that internal combustion or battery electric. The powertrain, engineered specifically for XP-1, gives Morgan’s engineers complete control of calibrations to create a range of driving modes featuring a mix of driving characteristics, providing the opportunity to define exactly how an electric Morgan should drive. To aid with the identification of suitable component combinations for the powertrain – both for XP-1 and future Morgan electric models – an in-house developed full vehicle toolchain has been created by Morgan’s engineers. This toolchain is key to modelling the compatibility and suitability of a range of different powertrain components, calculating the range prediction algorithm and simulating different scenarios that can help the company to benchmark against future requirements. The toolchain has also helped to enable aerodynamic improvements on the XP-1 over Super 3, simulating multiple design iterations to ensure maximum range and efficiency, resulting in a 33% reduction in drag coefficient. A bespoke interior display allows for user interface (UI) experimentation. XP-1’s display will continually evolve, allowing engineers and designers to gather feedback on how users interact with the vehicle, and the best way to communicate key vehicle information in future sports cars. Other experimental features include external charge level indicator LEDs surrounding the front cowl and new aerodynamic wheel trims. In building XP-1, we have started the extensive process of workforce training and infrastructure adaptation. Our coachbuilding production methods mean that building up this internal knowledgebase is vital for future production of electric Morgan sports cars, focused around workshop readiness to build EVs, training for high voltage systems handling and installation of charging infrastructure. XP-1 continues our core principle of developing cars with an undiluted driving experience. As XP-1 evolves so will its story. As a presentable prototype, it will become a visible project that takes our community along with us on our journey to electrification. You can expect periodic updates on the progress of XP-1 and to see the vehicle popping up at events, both at Morgan’s factory and further afield. XP-1 is built on the monocoque chassis of the Morgan Super 3, discover more about Super 3. If you would like to keep up to date with XP-1 and future Morgan projects, leave your details below.
