MG CYBERSTER THE SUB-CRORE DROP-TOP SUPERCAR INDIA DIDN'T EXPECT

It's fast, flashy, and surprisingly fun

- 

What if I told you that you could go from 0 to 100 kmph in just 3.2 seconds, feel a launch thump worthy of a sports car, and raise a pair of Lamborghini-style scissor doors, all without spending north of a crore? Sounds like a concept car dream. But at the Buddh International Circuit recently, that dream came alive with MG's all-electric roadster: the Cyberster. The statement that the MG Cyberster is looking to make is amply clear. It's furnishing buyers with flair, speed, and accessibility. While it may be sold via MG's exclusive Select outlets, its intent is mass disruption. In a segment dominated by buttoned-up sedans and SUV-shaped conformity, this drop-top rebel brings much-needed drama under ₹1 crore.

A SHOWSTOPPER FROM EVERY ANGLE

Visually, the Cyberster is unmissable. The design is heavily inspired by classic roadsters with a futuristic spin. The Kammback tail, sleek profile, and that distinctive tapered rear not only help with aerodynamics but add a dash of retro-modern elegance. The real crowd-pullers, however, are its scissor doors. No other production car under ₹1 crore in India offers those, and whichever way you look at them, they come off as rather suave style statements. Then there's the soft-top roof, which folds away in about 10 seconds. No manual fiddling, no clunky movements. Just one switch and you've got the wind in your hair.
