MG CYBERSTER VS PORSCHE 718 BOXSTER - WHO MAKES THE BEST SPORTS CAR NOW, PORSCHE OR MG?

EV Channels Review

The MG Cyberster is put head-to-head with the iconic Porsche 718 Boxster, challenging the notion that electric sports cars can't deliver the same thrill. The Cyberster impresses with its sensational, modern styling and a surprisingly well-executed interior, boasting excellent standard equipment. However, its usability is hampered by overly intrusive and complex safety systems, slow touchscreen responsiveness, and a slightly elevated driving position that might trouble taller drivers. While it offers a comfortable GT-like experience with strong performance, particularly in the Trophy trim, its chassis shows limitations when pushed hard compared to the Boxster. The Porsche, despite its familiar design and higher price point (especially for the GTS 4.0L tested), offers a more engaging and pure sports car driving experience, superior handling dynamics, and a more intuitive interior, though it lacks some of the Cyberster's standard features and has less interior storage for occupants. Ultimately, the Cyberster is a significant achievement for MG, proving electric sports cars can be stylish and engaging, but it falls short of the Boxster's ultimate driving purity.
