Morgan Reveals Midsummer Coupé as Ultra‑Limited Pininfarina Coachbuilt

The car closes the Midsummer collaboration by turning the 2024 barchetta into a bespoke fixed‑roof grand tourer using modern bonded glazing and traditional hand coachbuilding.

Overview

  • Morgan unveiled the Midsummer Coupé on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, presenting an artist’s proof called Car 0 and confirming a tiny customer run to follow.
  • The Coupé was developed with Pininfarina as a fresh coachbuilding exercise rather than a simple hardtop conversion, creating a new silhouette and proportions for touring use.
  • Its structure uses Morgan’s bonded CXV aluminium platform, billet‑machined aluminium A‑pillars and a large bonded glazed canopy that contributes to stiffness and adds about 2.5% to kerb weight.
  • Power comes from BMW’s 3.0‑litre turbocharged straight‑six in Supersport 400 specification with roughly 402 bhp routed through an eight‑speed automatic, and Morgan says each customer car will be highly bespoke.
  • Production is ultra‑limited: sources consistently report Car 0 plus nine customer commissions that are spoken for, though at least one outlet gave a ten‑unit figure; pricing is undisclosed but expected above the previous Midsummer’s £200,000 starting point and Car 0 will be shown at the Louwman Museum.
