The Morgan Midsummer is a limited-production roadster manufactured by the Morgan Motor Company in collaboration with Italian design firm Pininfarina. Production began in 2024, with a total of only fifty units planned.[1]

In November 2023, the chief executive officer (CEO) of Morgan Motor Company announced a forthcoming collaboration with Pininfarina in a company press release.[2] The Midsummer was officially unveiled on 16 May 2024, with Morgan confirming that production would be limited to fifty units.[1] All vehicles were sold prior to the announcement of the pricing.[3] In October 2024, Morgan announced the completion of the first two production models.[4]

According to an interview with Pininfarina's chief creative officer (CCO), the partnership originated in 2022, when design teams from both companies met at a pub.[5]

Specifications

The Midsummer is built on the same CX-Generation aluminium platform used in the Morgan Plus Six.[5]
