Update: Future Variants & ‘Superleggera’ Edition added.
Designed primarily for driving enthusiasts who want to enjoy open-air drives on scenic European roads in the summer, the MG Cyberster is among the few mass-produced electric convertibles available in the world.
We took a close look at the car in a global specification recently to see if it’s still relevant, and here’s what we found out:
Design
The MG Cyberster features a fluidic and emotional exterior and doesn’t present its zero-emission nature too strongly, maintaining a conventional exterior. At 4,535 mm long and 1,913 mm wide, it is noticeably bigger than the BMW Z4 and the Porsche Boxster, yet not unwieldy for UK roads.
The car’s sculpted bonnet sits low and slopes in true sports car fashion, and the rest of its front looks clearly inspired by a human face. The swept-back headlamps suggest a focused expression, while the lower fascia forms a subtle, almost playful smile.
In the higher variant, the Cyberster sports staggered 20-inch wheels wrapped in 245/40 R20 front and 275/35 R20 rear Pirelli P-Zero tyres. Scissor doors are the highlight of the exterior, giving it the road presence of supercars and hypercars.
A full-width, angular LED light bar dominates the rear, and the tail lamps consist of outward-pointing arrow graphics at either end as well. We felt this setup contrasts sharply with the Cyberster’s otherwise clean and restrained exterior.
Interior
The interior of the MG Cyberster feels like a mixed bag. The cabin feels snug yet not uncomfortably tight and features a sporty design in all key elements, be it the steering wheel, the dashboard, or even the gear selector.
Experience in the global-spec MG Cyberster
I am 5 ft 7 in, and ingress and egress matched my expectations. The low-slung body requires some effort, but the scissor doors create a wide opening and give plenty of space to get in and out.
Once inside, the cabin feels suitable for occupants of average height. Drivers around six feet tall or more will find it less comfortable. I noticed a small storage area behind the seats that looks large enough for a couple of shopping bags.
Seated in my driving position, I had around five inches of headroom, and lumbar support felt good. Under-thigh support felt decent, though I had to tuck myself into the seat and sink into the seatback to make the most of it.
I liked the feel of the buttons and switches, though they did not come across as luxury-grade. I noticed extensive soft-touch plastic on the doors, along with smooth upholstery covering roughly one-third of the door width. Material quality across the cabin felt consistent during my time in the car.
Uniquely, the Cyberster uses four displays. A triple-screen setup sits behind the steering wheel as a single curved panel with rounded corners. From the driver’s seat, I could see the centre screen showing key information such as speed, charging percentage, and remaining range.
The right screen displayed extra items such as weather, energy use, and driver profile. The left screen handled smartphone connectivity through Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, along with navigation and media.
A waterfall centre console houses a portrait-oriented fourth screen for temperature control, audio volume, and other functions. In the RHD layout, the gear selector sits on the right side of this touchscreen. I also noticed two cupholders and a covered storage box in the floor console, both of which are practical touches.
Specifications
MG offers the Cyberster in the UK in Trophy and GT grades, both with a 74.4 kWh (net) NMC battery pack. The Cyberster Trophy has only a rear motor, producing 250 kW (335 bhp) and 475 Nm (350 lb.-ft.) of torque. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in five seconds flat and achieves a top speed of 121 mph.
The Cyberster GT uses two motors, one powering the rear wheels and one powering the front wheels. Packing 375 kW (503 bhp) of total power and 725 Nm (535 lb.-ft.) of total torque, it hits 0 to 100 km/h (0-62 mph) in just 3.2 seconds and achieves a top speed of 125 mph.
The 74.4 kWh battery pack supports charging at up to 144 kW. MG says customers can charge it from 10% to 100% SoC via a 7 kW AC charger in 12.5 hours and from 10% to 80% SoC via a 150 kW DC charger in 38 minutes. It delivers a WLTP range of 507 km (316 miles) in the Trophy grade and 443 km (276 miles) in the GT grade.
Price
The MG Cyberster (base retail price) starts at GBP 55,245 in the Trophy grade and GBP 60,245 in the GT grade.
Future Variants & ‘Superleggera’ Edition
According to a February 2026 report by Auto Express, MG is exploring several special editions to boost Cyberster sales and maintain buyer interest throughout its lifecycle. Different colours, wheels, seat materials, and trim could emerge in future Cyberster versions, going by what David Allison, MG UK’s director of product and planning, told the publication.
However, the brand won’t necessarily stop there. Jozef Kaban, the Vice President of MG’s Global Design Centre, indicated to the magazine that more variants are currently in the pipeline. While he stopped short of confirming, his description points towards a hardcore ‘Superleggera’ model.

This streamlined, lightweight iteration would strategically strip away non-essential components to deliver a purer, more focused driving experience.
