Design: A blend of future and heritage
Attractive exterior design
The design of the MG Cyberster will win your heart at first glance. Its low-hung roadster silhouette is inspired by the classic MGB roadster but has a touch of modernity. Its most distinctive feature is its scissor doors, which give it a supercar-like look. These doors are not only stylish but are also equipped with sensors, making them safe and convenient.
The front of the car is aggressive and stylish, featuring LED headlamps and petal-shaped DRLs (Daytime Running Lights). Its rear design comes with a cameo silhouette, with full-width LED light bars and arrow-shaped taillights making it even more attractive. The 20-inch double-tone alloy wheels and Pirelli P-Zero tyres further enhance its road presence.
Colour Options
The MG Cyberster is available in four dual-tone colours:
- Nuclear Yellow with Black Roof
- Flare Red with Black Roof
- Andes Grey with Red Roof
- Modern Beige with Red Roof
These colour combinations make this car look attractive from every angle. It has a drag coefficient of 0.269 Cd, making it extremely aerodynamically efficient.
Interior: Fighter Jet-Inspired Cockpit
Driver-Centric Design
The interior of the MG Cyberster is inspired by the cockpit of a fighter jet. It includes a triple-screen setup, consisting of a 10.25-inch central touchscreen and two 7-inch digital panels. These screens provide easy access to driving data, infotainment, and navigation. An additional screen on the center console is for HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) controls.
Premium and Comfort
The cabin uses Dynamica suede and vegan leather upholstery, which gives it a premium look. There are two sports seats for the driver and passenger, which are 6-way electrically adjustable and heated. The flat-bottom steering wheel has joystick controls and paddle shifters, which control regenerative braking. The 8-speaker Bose audio system and noise cancellation technology make the driving experience even better.
Performance: Supercar-like speed
Power and Speed
The MG Cyberster is a true performance car. It comes with a 77 kWh battery and a dual-motor AWD setup, which generates 510 horsepower and 725 Nm of torque. The car accelerates from 0 to 100 kmph in just 3.2 seconds, making it one of the fastest cars in India. Its top speed is 200 kmph.
Driving Modes
- The car has four driving modes:
- Comfort: For everyday driving
- Sport: For better response
- Custom: As per driver’s preference
- Super Sport: For maximum performance
Range and Charging
The MG Cyberster offers a range of 580 km on a single charge (as per MIDC cycle). It can be charged from 10% to 80% in just 40 minutes with a 144 kW DC fast charger. It also comes with a 3.3 kW portable charger and a 7.4 kW wall box charger.
Suspension and Braking
Handling and Ride Quality
The MG Cyberster has double wishbone suspension and 50:50 weight distribution, which gives it excellent handling and ride quality. Former Formula 1 engineer Marco Fenello has contributed to the chassis tuning. Brembo 4-piston front brake calipers take it to a complete stop from 100 km/h in just 33 metres.
Safety: A new standard of safety
Safety has been given priority in the MG Cyberster. It has an H-shaped full cradle structure and a static stability factor (SSF) of 1.83, which ensures rollover resistance. Additionally, it includes:
- 4 airbags
- Level-2 ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) including Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keep Assist, Blind Spot Detection, and Forward Collision Warning

Positioning in the Indian market
Price and availability
The MG Cyberster has a starting price of Rs 74.99 lakh (ex-showroom), but it is available for Rs 72.49 lakh for those who pre-book. The car is being sold through MG Select Premium Showrooms, and deliveries have started from August 10, 2025.
Competition
The MG Cyberster has no direct rivals in India, as it is the country’s first all-electric convertible roadster. However, it can compete with petrol-powered convertibles like the BMW Z4 and Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet, which are more expensive and less powerful.
Conclusion: The beginning of a new era
