The MG Cyberster is a two-seater electric roadster that’s currently on sale in Europe and in other international markets.
It’s powered by either an all-wheel-drive, dual-motor 503-horsepower GT, or rear-wheel-drive single-motor 335-hp Trophy, each boasting a 77kWh (74.4kWh usable) battery to deliver a WLTP range of 276 or 316 miles, respectively.
The car boasts of an 8.8 cubic-foot trunk and the cabin has enough storage. It is tech-heavy and has screens: three in front of the driver and one in the center console.
Every sports car needs to have some theatre about it and the Cyberster’s party piece is fancy doors that open upwards.
Inside you’ll find big, comfy seats, and a spacious cabin.
Twisty roads reveal one of the Cyberster’s weaknesses, though. It’s heavy, and anything other than mirror smooth roads upset it enough that it stops being fun and starts being a bit ‘cling-on-and-see-what-happens.’
Being a modern car, there are touch screens and they can be fiddly.
The MG Cyberster is a cruiser, not a sports car.
It’s perfect for gently gliding along at a steady pace, taking the world in as you go.
It’s a start for the ‘affordable’ EV sports car category, and it’s a damn good one. Just take it easy out there.
