Its 3-wheel design offered good performance at a third of of the price. From 1910 until 1930 Morgan boasted the three-wheeler could out-perform standard cars by having a very low center of gravity, combined with a lightweight chassis. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>Making the Morgan even more appealing, was the ingenious independent front suspension. Morgan boasted every three-wheeler they made had an independent suspension setup.<\/p>\n<p>The layout of this vehicle lies somewhere in between a car and a motorcycle. The engine is located in front of the radiator and drives a single rear wheel. Power is transferred via a driveshaft tube which acts as part of the chassis.<\/p>\n<p>Over the years many different engines were used on Morgan three-wheelers. The first protoype featured a air cooled Peugeot powerplant. MAG, JAP and even a 993cc Ford four-cylinder unit were used in these cars.<\/p>\n<p>Morgan played a huge role in the three-wheel market and exclusively sold three-wheeled cars from 1908 until 1935. The production run on three-wheelers slowed after 1940 but continued, albeit heavily upgraded, until the 1980s.<\/p>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon
