Plus Four CXT

The Plus Four CX-T is a Morgan special project that redefines the capabilities of a Morgan sports car. Opening up new destinations and possibilities, this rugged and capable overland vehicle is Morgan like you’ve never seen it before. Built alongside experienced Dakar Rally competitors and vehicle builders, Rally Raid UK, every aspect of the Plus Four CX-T has been carefully considered to equip it for overland adventure in remote conditions.

Endless Possibilities

Load up your luggage, strap down your equipment and embark on an adventure. Morgan ownership has always been about the journey, not just the destination. CX-T takes that one step further and opens up even more possibilities.

The very nature of the Plus Four CX-T and its raft of modifications means your journey continues, even when the road ends.

Trials: The "T" in CX-T

Almost as soon as HFS Morgan had created the first Morgan Runabout, he was competing in reliability trials up and down the United Kingdom. He, and his creations, were incredibly capable and achieved numerous successes. This success helped to establish the Morgan Motor Company and was hugely important in contributing to its growth.

The CX-T project is rooted in Morgan’s trialling success and takes inspiration from the incredible journeys that Morgan owners have embarked on over the last 100 years. It celebrates the spirit of adventure that has been prevalent in the Morgan marque since HFS Morgan’s first journey in the Runabout.

Features

Equipped for adventure

The rear of the Plus Four CX-T has been replaced with an equipment rack which houses an array of specially sourced equipment.

The rack houses two ruggedised and waterproof Pelican luggage cases, a Zarges aluminium tool/storage box, two Rotopax 11-litre containers and two spare wheel/tyre assemblies. Additionally, for those who venture further off the beaten track, recovery equipment such as sand mats and tow ropes are mounted on the exterior of the car within easy reach when required.

All exterior mounting systems for all storage and equipment have been painstakingly engineered to be tough and easy to access when needed.

Tough and Ready

Whilst the Plus Four CX-T shares the same platform as its road-based siblings, a raft of underbody modifications have been made to ensure it is fit for purpose on harsh terrain. 

A five-piece underbody protection system – comprising an engine guard, rear chassis guard, mid-section shield and rear undertray – helps to protect the chassis and important components from damage when driving in extreme conditions. The car is also fitted with a full bespoke exhaust system with rear side-exit that improves the departure angle and contributes to 230mm of ground clearance.

Functional Interior

A RAM mount track is built into to the dashboard to allow the secure fixing of a variety of devices such as phones or cameras. A flexible map light, pencil and notebook holder have also been integrated, all designed to withstand operation in harsh driving environments.

Cabin stowage has also been optimised with the addition of a removable map/document holder and insulated cool bag, both located in the passenger footwell. A custom-made first aid kit is mounted to the internal roll cage behind the seats.

The cabin is enclosed within a composite hard top which is unique to the Plus Four CX-T and has been intricately engineered to fit between the internal and external roll cages. Side screen stowage has been neatly configured on top of the roof.

Bespoke Suspension

The suspension has been designed to be expedition ready: tough and fit for purpose. Durability, and a drive-over obstacle clearance of 230mm, has been achieved using modified Plus Six wishbones. These widen the track and allow for the extra arc of movement required to achieve the desired suspension performance. The wheel arch apertures have also been modified, allowing the suspension to compress deep into the wheel well, providing maximum traction and stability.

EXE-TC coilover assemblies with internal bump stops are used, these have been specifically developed for the Plus Four CX-T. The lower suspension arms contain bespoke bushes.
