Morgan to reveal new 2+2 coupe in 2010

A classic car show seems like a fitting place to launch a new Morgan, and that’s exactly what visitors to this year’s Pebble Beach event will be treated to. The EvaGT is loosely based on the range-topping Aero Supersports, but has a fixed roof, steeply-raked windscreen and revised side window line, giving it a similar look to the limited-edition AeroMax. Morgan’s teaser pic suggests that the wings have been radically reshaped too.

Peugeot 2008 Crossover: UK price from £12,995

That meant the Urban Crossover Concept from Geneva in 2012 turning in to the new Peugeot 2008 at the start of 2013 – before heading to Geneva 2013 for its public debut – and with that other French car maker, Renault, going a similar route with the Clio-based Captur, it’s clear the French see the future of compact cars moving away from hatchbacks to something more rugged. But unlike the Captur – which was a bit of a disappointing looking Clio on stilts – the Peugeot 2008 does look a more convincing offering, even if it’s a more generic-looking compact SUV than the Nissan Juke and would, for our money, be the pick over the Captur. Peugeot are targeting 8,000 sales a year in the UK for the 2008, and with prices starting at £12,995 and heading up to around £19,000 it seems, if anything, a quite modest target, especially as Peugeot reckons 65 per cent of 2008 customers will be new to the brand.
