Morgan has released images of its LifeCar concept ahead of the car’s Geneva Motor Show debut next month. The LifeCar is based on the company’s Aero 8 but is powered by a hydrogen fuel-cell drivetrain with a range of about 200 miles.
The LifeCar concept was developed by a number of organizations — including the Department for Trade and Industry, BOC, OSCar, Oxford University and Cranfield University — and cost £1.9 million to design and create.
Though Morgan vehicles aren’t normally associated with cutting edge, the British automaker wanted to prove “that a zero emission vehicle can also be fun to drive.”
“The real challenge is to design and build a car that is fun to drive – a proper sports car,” Charles Morgan, the strategy director for the Morgan Motor Company, told Car Body Design.
Check back for more details and images after the LifeCar’s official debut next month.

As a lifelong Morgan fan, it will be interesting to see what they bring to the show.

The fourth picture looks like a squirrel with too many nuts in its cheeks.

Great profile. No more crossed eyes and stupid boot as on the Aero, but this new rear is way too Corvette and doesn’t match the flow of the design. Needs a little more design time.

The side shot looks cool, but the rest…not so much. Not really a huge fan of Morgan’s styling.

Didn’t know what to make of it for the first minute, but now I’m liking it. Cool!

Thank goodness it doesn’t have that cross-eyed headlight look anymore.
