By Ben Barry First Official Pictures 15 March 2007 05:05 Morgan Life Car: the lowdown Morgan, that most traditional of British brands, has announced it will launch a zero-emissions car called the Life Car at next year’s Geneva show. Based on the regular Aero chassis, the Life Car is part DTI-funded and involves partnerships with Oxford University and a company that developed fuel-cell technology for military applications – such as providing medical teams with power during conflicts.

And it came out of the blue, because Nissan was perhaps the last company anyone would have expected to come up with such a revolutionary design.
