Morgan to Bring LifeCar Fuel Cell Sports Concept to Geneva Motor Show

Small British automaker Morgan will be bringing an innovative, and rather beautiful concept car to its stand at the Geneva Motor Show, a hydrogen fuel cell vehicle based on the Aero 8 called the LifeCar Concept.

The car’s architecture is designed around the needs of a fuel cell, with a great emphasis put on reducing vehicle weight.
