Today on TheSmokingTire, we delve into the enigmatic world of the Morgan Super 3, a vehicle that straddles the fine line between improvement and nostalgia. The new iteration boasts a car engine, enhanced handling, and upgraded build quality, challenging the very essence of its predecessor, the Morgan three-wheeler. Exter, the sponsor, introduces a range of modern everyday carry goods, revolutionizing the concept of wallets with efficiency and style.

In a thrilling comparison with the Polaris Slingshot, the team uncovers the Super 3's unique characteristics, from front-end width disparities to steering nuances that evoke a bygone era of racing. Despite its challenges, including heavy steering and limited grip, the Super 3 offers a driving experience akin to piloting a vintage racing machine, blending elements of the past with a hint of futuristic allure. The car's design exudes a steampunk-meets-aerospace vibe, transporting drivers to a realm where time travel seems plausible.

The discussion extends to the contrast between the new and old Morgan three-wheelers, shedding light on the trade-offs between modern performance and the loss of the old model's distinctive charm. While the Super 3 excels in engine reliability and features, some enthusiasts bemoan the dilution of its character in the pursuit of progress. Despite these concerns, the Super 3 remains a beacon of joy on the road, offering a lightweight, engaging driving experience that captivates both seasoned drivers and curious onlookers alike.
