A sports car that is also environmentally friendly is set to be unveiled by manufacturer Morgan at the Geneva Motor Show from tomorrow.

Morgan says its LifeCar shows that a zero-emission vehicle can also be fun to drive and combines performance, range and fuel economy.

The manufacturer claims that the design goes beyond that used in traditional hybrid vehicles.

LifeCar is powered by a fuel cell hybrid power train and has a lightweight body with a high hybridisation level.

This design of the car minimises fuel costs and provides the fuel economy for a 200-mile range.

Designers collaborating on the project include Oscar Automotive, Cranfield University, QinetiQ, Oxford University and Linde AG.

The Geneva Motor Show runs from March 6th to 16th at the city's Palexpo centre.
