A three-wheeled roadster is unquestionably a toy, but oh what a toy it is.
Also, nearly as impractical as you thinkThe world can’t agree on much, but it can agree on SUVs. They’re the dominant form of personal motor vehicle, for multiple reasons: A box is the best shape to carry the maximum amount of people and cargo, and ground clearance and all-wheel drive give peace of mind that the driver will be ready for any road conditions. In a word, they’re practical.From a usability point of view, the 2023 Morgan Super 3 is at best a method of conveyance.
It takes a little building up to reach the leaning-out-of-the-cockpit stage. The three-point seatbelt wasn’t invented until the year after Fangio retired, and it’s cold comfort. Everything from the armpits up is always outside the vehicle, and although helmet laws vary by state, we recommend a full-face lid for bug- and rock-strike protection as much as the illusion of safety.
Even if you’re all right with the idea of driving a three-wheeled bathtub around semis, it can still be a harrowing experience for the first hundred miles or so. Despite its diminutive cross-section, the Super 3 is highly susceptible to crosswinds, and its extremely quick steering ratio makes it easy to overcompensate when you get blown around. Morgan says the Super 3 will do 130 mph if you’re brave enough, but anything above 80 starts to feel dicey.
Still, three small contact patches can only do so much. Our best braking result was 133 feet slowing from 60 mph to a stop, which is longer than the average small SUV. Similarly, a 6.1-second sprint from 0 to 60 isn’t anything to write home about, but it certainly feels more exciting in a vehicle like this. We even provoked wheelspin on the 1–2 and 2–3 upshifts driving it hard enough.
