2008 Geneva Auto Show Preview: Morgan hydrogen fuel-cell hybrid

I never thought that I would use the words "Morgan" and "Hydrogen Fuel-Cell Hybrid" in the same sentence, let alone being used as a linked thought. Wow. What's the world coming to? Morgan, a brand so steeped in history, and often thought to be stuck in the 1930s with wooden frames, is planning on a zero-emission vehicle, and one that's "still fun to drive."

The vehicle will be on display at the Geneva auto show.

Full story here.

2007 Geneva Auto Show: Racecars of the Palexpo

Just a selection of the racecars from the Geneva Motor Show floor, our favorite being the Morgan Aero 8 GT3, which is set to compete in the FIA GT3 series this year. It has a 420-hp 5.0-liter, BMW-sourced V8 with a dry sump oil system, hooked up to a six-speed sequential gearbox. The race version of the Civic Type R, by the way, does pick up the limited-slip differential the production version lacks, but it still has a torsion beam out back.—Erin Riches, Senior Content Editor
