As it turns out, there was no reason to be concerned. The first details about the company&#8217;s all-new model confirm a BMW heart. Without going into details, the British niche marque mentions a turbocharged inline-six of Bavarian origins.<\/p>\n<p>The Plus Six used BMW&#8217;s B58, dialed to 335 horsepower and 369 pound-feet (500 Newton-meters) in the car&#8217;s final iteration, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2024\/10\/23\/morgan-plus-six-pinnacle-bmw-engine\/\">Pinnacle\u00a0special edition<\/a>. It&#8217;s unlikely to witness a major bump in output for the upcoming model since Morgan models are more about balance than outright power.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Morgan-Flagship-Testing-02.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-494654\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Morgan-Flagship-Testing-02-830x467.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"830\" height=\"467\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Morgan-Flagship-Testing-02-830x467.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Morgan-Flagship-Testing-02-1820x1024.jpg 1820w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Morgan-Flagship-Testing-02-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Morgan-Flagship-Testing-02-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Morgan-Flagship-Testing-02.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>However, we all know this engine is capable of so much more, should the need arise. It delivers up to 386 hp in the latest M340i and even 429 hp in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2024\/11\/29\/toyota-supra-b58-429-horsepower\/\">Toyota Supra A90 Final Edition<\/a>. Ineos Automotive also uses the B58 in the Grenadier off-roader SUV and the Quartermaster pickup truck. However, in those two vehicles, BMW dials its six-cylinder, 3.0-liter unit down to only 281 hp.<\/p>\n<p>The Worcestershire-based company does say it has developed the car on a completely new platform. It&#8217;s lighter and stiffer, representing an evolution of the in-house bonded aluminum chassis. Morgan proudly claims it has implemented &#8220;a range of new technical features and engineering enhancements throughout.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Although the newcomer will also be a flagship, it won&#8217;t be a direct replacement for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2019\/03\/06\/morgan-announces-the-plus-six-with-a-bmw-engine\/\">Plus Six<\/a>. The design will be quintessentially Morgan, but this isn&#8217;t the production-ready look. When the final design is revealed, expect it to be slightly more modern and aero-driven. To use Morgan&#8217;s exact words, the car will have a &#8220;more contemporary aesthetic and an aerodynamically informed proportion.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>As for the level of excitement behind the wheel, there&#8217;s going to be &#8220;greater dynamic performance and driving enjoyment.&#8221; We will soon know exactly which BMW engine is hidden underneath the retro-flavored hood. Morgan will unveil its new sports car this spring.<\/p>\n<p>Photos: Morgan Motor Company<\/p>\n<p>First published by https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"830\" height=\"467\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/Morgan-Flagship-Testing-01-830x467.jpg\" class=\"attachment-medium size-medium wp-post-image\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<p>When Morgan retired the Plus Six a few months ago, we wondered whether its successor would still have a BMW engine.
