Looking for a new retro-styled machine to take you down the streets like in the old days but with modern power and reliability? Morgan is exactly what you need in your life if you got the cash. And the traditional automaker just said to bring a new model to market in March.
A tweet from British car-builder Morgan says “We are excited to announce that the 85th International Geneva Motorshow 2015 will play host to the world premiere of a new Morgan. We look forward to sharing further information with you over the next few weeks.”

No other details are available for now, but the tweet is accompanied by a teaser photo picturing the front end of an Aero model, which looks basically the same with the one offered for sale at the moment. Could it be a new iteration of the model or is the company planning a whole new product?

Guess we’ll have to stick around and see what Morgan plans to reveal. Founded in 1910, the company now offers 8 models for retro enthusiasts. The last addition to the range is the 3 Wheeler, which returned into production in 2011.

The car is now basically the entry level Morgan, having only three wheels, old airplane looks, an external mounted V-twin engine and a tubular frame structure. The vehicle weighs around 550 kg (1,212 lb) and the 2-liter S&S engine pushes it from nought to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 4.5 seconds.

As a coincidence, the 3 Wheeler has been unveiled in 2011 at the Geneva Motor Show so Morgan could be preparing a new model. Keep your browsers pointing at us for more details.
