XP1 Three-Wheeler EV Revealed
Morgan, the defender of string-backed driving gloves, has created the XP1, an electric three-wheeler case study. The XP1 is based on the same chassis and aluminium monocoque as the Ford-engined Super 3, and has been operational for three months.
100kW iNetic Motor and Inverter
Morgan uses electrical equipment from various manufacturers, including the 100kW iNetic motor which is mounted in the transmission tunnel that powers the single rear wheel, and the inverter too.
Both these equipments are vital assets to Morgan, and iNetic did an excellent job manufacturing them. The motor and the inverter were made with great precision and craftsmanship that it affects the performance of Morgan to a great extent.

Further Enhancements
Morgan is still working on suspension development and has adjusted spring rates and front dampers to compensate for the additional weight of the batteries. The XP1 is critical for Morgan as electrification becomes more prevalent, as their powertrains become increasingly scarce commodities.
