Introduction

MG is taking a bold leap into the future with the launch of the Cyberster EV in India — a fully electric, convertible sports car that looks like it leapt straight out of a sci-fi movie.

The moment you lay eyes on the MG Cyberster, it grabs your attention with its low-slung, aerodynamic silhouette, scissor doors, and an ultra-sleek front profile. Inspired by classic British roadsters, yet modernized for an electric era, the design screams performance with every curve. The rear gets an LED light bar stretching across the width, and the soft-top convertible roof folds seamlessly into the body, making it perfect for style lovers and thrill seekers alike.

Mileage and Performance

The Cyberster is available in two configurations internationally — a rear-wheel drive variant producing 308 bhp and a dual-motor all-wheel-drive model pushing out 536 bhp. The top-spec variant can sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in under 4 seconds, placing it right in sports car territory. It houses a 77 kWh battery pack and offers a range of around 500–520 km on a full charge (WLTP), making it practical enough for Indian highways and city roads alike.

Features

MG has gone all-out on the tech front. Inside, you’re greeted by a triple-screen digital cockpit, AI-based infotainment system, and a driver-centric layout. Voice commands, OTA updates, a wireless charging pad, ambient lighting, and connected car tech are all included. The steering wheel is inspired by gaming consoles, hinting at MG’s Gen-Z targeting.

Some of the highlight features include:

  • 6-way powered sports seats with memory
  • Premium Bose sound system
  • 5G connectivity (market dependent)
  • Regenerative braking
  • Drive modes including “Super Sport”

Braking and Handling

Thanks to its low center of gravity, stiff chassis, and near 50:50 weight distribution, the Cyberster offers sharp cornering and excellent handling at high speeds. The AWD variant feels confident even in wet or slippery conditions. The braking setup uses performance discs all around with regenerative support, giving you progressive and confident stopping power.

Whether you’re in the city or cruising on expressways, the Cyberster handles like a true sports coupe — tight, responsive, and thrilling.

Pricing and Launch Date in India

While MG has showcased the Cyberster in India, the official launch is expected in early 2026, with bookings possibly opening in late 2025. MG aims to localize some components to bring the price down.

Expected price range:
₹50 lakh to ₹65 lakh (ex-showroom), depending on the variant and battery configuration.
