An exciting new chapter in the MG story has just been announced at Auto Shanghai 2023.

The company has officially confirmed production plans of its EV sports car, Cyberster.

The two-seat roadster marks a much-anticipated return to sportscar production by the MG marque, with Cyberster poised to bring the story right up to date with its all-electric powertrain and contemporary cabin.

Carl Gotham, Advanced Design Director of the company’s Marylebone design studio in London, comments, “Our intention was to create a completely new roadster ready for a new generation of sportscar drivers and which opens a bold and compelling new chapter for MG.”

“The focus for Cyberster was to create a design that was respectful of the brand’s illustrious past and to bring back that sporting bloodline, while also being absolutely clear that it should be modern and forward-facing like the MG of today, completely in-tune with the rapid transition to electric vehicles.”

Cyberster’s styling pays homage to roadsters from MG’s heritage, with its distinctive long bonnet, low nose and curvaceous surfaces, while also introducing new features such as its distinctive scissor doors and Kammback rear design.

Cyberster is expected to arrive for sale in the UK and Europe in the summer of 2024.
