This sporty, all-electric roadster enters a premium price bracket, with an introductory price of \u20b972.49 lakh (ex-showroom) for customers who had placed early pre-reservations. For other buyers, the Cyberster will be available at \u20b974.99 lakh (ex-showroom). This model is the second to be sold via the brand\u2019s luxury-focused \u2018MG Select\u2019 dealerships.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"881\" data-end=\"1280\">Unveiled earlier this year at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025, the MG Cyberster makes its way to Indian shores as a Completely Built-Up (CBU) unit. Though it doesn\u2019t have a direct competitor in its segment, it will likely be cross-shopped with performance EVs like the Tesla Model Y, BMW Z4, Porsche 718 Boxster, Kia EV6, Mini Cooper SE, and Hyundai Ioniq 5.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"1287\" data-end=\"1330\">Striking Exterior Design and Dimensions<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"1332\" data-end=\"1791\">The MG Cyberster features a sleek and aerodynamic two-door convertible design, highlighted by its electric scissor doors. Built on a dedicated electric vehicle platform, it sports a wheelbase of 2,690 mm and boasts a low drag coefficient of 0.269 Cd. The exterior styling includes a sloping rear profile, smooth shoulder lines, and large 20-inch staggered alloy wheels, giving the car a futuristic, performance-oriented appearance.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1793\" data-end=\"1860\"><strong>MG will offer the Cyberster in four dual-tone colour options:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1861\" data-end=\"2001\">\n<li data-start=\"1861\" data-end=\"1899\">\n<p data-start=\"1863\" data-end=\"1899\">Nuclear Yellow with black roof<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1900\" data-end=\"1933\">\n<p data-start=\"1902\" data-end=\"1933\">Flare Red with black roof<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1934\" data-end=\"1966\">\n<p data-start=\"1936\" data-end=\"1966\">Andes Grey with red roof<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1967\" data-end=\"2001\">\n<p data-start=\"1969\" data-end=\"2001\">Modern Beige with red roof<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p data-start=\"1969\" data-end=\"2001\"><span style=\"color: #161616;font-family: 'Public Sans', system-ui, sans-serif;font-size: 1.285em;font-weight: bold\">Powertrain and Acceleration<\/span><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2041\" data-end=\"2429\">In India, the MG Cyberster comes equipped with a dual-motor setup, drawing energy from a 77 kWh battery pack positioned between the axles. This configuration produces a powerful 510 PS and 725 Nm of torque, enabling the car to sprint from 0 to 100 kmph in just 3.2 seconds. On a full charge, MG claims the Cyberster can deliver a driving range of up to 510 km.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2431\" data-end=\"2712\">Globally, another version of the car exists with a rear-wheel-drive layout, powered by a smaller 64 kWh battery and a single motor that makes 295 bhp. Interestingly, despite its lower output, this variant is estimated to offer a slightly longer range of 519 km.<\/p>\n<h3 data-start=\"2719\" data-end=\"2755\">Interior Layout and Key Features<\/h3>\n<p data-start=\"2757\" data-end=\"3139\">The cabin of the Cyberster is crafted using vegan leather and suede materials and features a futuristic cockpit layout.
