CAN THIS ELECTRIC ROADSTER HARK BACK TO MG’S SPORTS CAR GLORY DAYS? (MG CYBERSTER 2024 REVIEW)

EV Channels Review

The MG Cyberster marks a bold return to MG's sports car heritage, albeit with a significant electric twist and a premium price tag of $115,000. The reviewer praises its striking exterior styling, particularly the "strawberries and cream" color combination and unique scissor doors, though notes access can be challenging. Inside, the cabin offers a theatrical experience with a red suede and leather interior, but the dashboard layout is deemed slightly flawed due to steering wheel obstruction. Performance is a strong suit, with dual motors delivering 375kW and 750Nm for rapid acceleration, though the reviewer highlights the lack of launch control testing due to the car's low mileage. Driving dynamics are described as engaging and well-balanced, with good body control despite the absence of adaptive dampers. While the steering offers adjustable weight, it lacks genuine road feel. The top-down experience is a highlight, offering an airy and refined roadster feel. Overall, the Cyberster is presented as a surprisingly livable, fun, and unique vehicle that successfully blends theater, rarity, and performance, setting it apart from other MG models and the broader automotive landscape.
