MG Cyberster - raw power with refinement

It seems only right that the MG badge should appear on the front of a new roadster. After all, the brand made its name from two-seater sportscars and now MG Motor Ireland have announced pricing details of its highly anticipated EV roadster, the Cyberster.

MG will soon reveal the locations where customers can experience the thrill of driving the MG Cyberster as they announce their appointed MG Cyberster dealers. For now, anyone seeking information on this highly anticipated model can contact their local MG dealer for more details or refer to mg.ie.

Featuring signature scissor doors as envisioned by Carl Gotham and his MG London design team, as well as a fully-electric fabric hood that can be opened or closed in as little as 15 seconds at speeds up to 48 km/h, the rear-wheel-drive Cyberster promises to be a compelling yet refined drive.

The single-motor, Exclusive, Cyberster is available from €69,900. Impressive power figures of 340 PS (250 kW), with maximum torque confirmed at 475 Nm suggests  a seriously quick car. They say that it will sprint from 0-100 km/h in just 5.0 seconds.

A dual-motor, GT, Cyberster is available from €75,500. The Dual Motor will be the marque’s new flagship and the most powerful production model in MG’s 100-year history, with no less than 503 PS (375 kW) and 725 Nm of torque.
