Morgan is celebrating the original inspirations for its rebellious Super 3 with a limited-edition series of commissions known as Super 3 Origins. The collection features nine unique specifications – each of which is limited to just nine examples – that embody an inspiration theme that was prevalent during the formative design stages of Super 3.
Launched today, Super 3 Origins displays an eclectic and versatile mix of commissions, each one featuring specially selected colours, intricate paintwork, liveries, bespoke features and accessories. Inspirations range from the emergence of the jet age, the space race, the pop art movement, American boulevard cruisers, belly tank racers, 80s tech, and science-fiction.
“Super 3 presents a unique proposition within the industry, sitting at the intersection of auto and moto culture. And most importantly, it’s always evolving. These nine new specials are proof of that continuing evolution.
“The Super 3’s aesthetic is derived from its mechanical function and the very broad outlook adopted by the creative team at Morgan. We drew inspiration from other industries, artistic and industrial movements, and sampled the ‘best bits’ from multiple decades of design. This is the story we wanted to tell with the Super 3 Origins collection.
“When we first presented Super 3 in April 2022, we defined three ‘characters’ – Classic, Contemporary, and Touring – that reflected the varied nature of the model and the way in which three-wheeled Morgan owners, and motorcyclists used their vehicles. The latest nine specifications are new characters in the story of Super 3.
“This project has been immersive for all departments within Morgan, who’ve taken pleasure in revisiting and categorising the key inspirations behind Super 3. Those inspirations have manifested themselves in nine striking editions that complete the Super 3 Origins collection. We hope that they capture Super 3’s striking yet honest design and its ability for bold self-expression. It’s a product for which its success is measured in smiles, and one that embodies a statement of the creative and coachbuilding talent of the people within Morgan.”
