Overview
The Plus E was designed by Morgan Motor Company in conjunction with British firm Zytek who provided the electric drivetrain.[1] The project was funded by the UK government, receiving over £400,000 for research and development.[2] The car was reportedly developed and shown to gauge interest but no additional units have been produced.[3]
Specifications
The Plus E is built on the same chassis as Morgan's Plus 8 model, but features a 70 kilowatt Zytek engine instead of a V8.[4][5] Electric vehicles typically do not include a gearbox, however, the Plus E includes a five-speed transmission and a clutch pedal.[6] Along with Rytek, the project was supported by the British company Radshape who helped design and produce the aluminum chassis.[7]
