Can this electric roadster hark back to MG’s sports car glory days? (MG Cyberster 2024 Review)

The MG brand has come back to the fore through an array of sharply priced city cars and family-friendly SUVs, but now it’s served up an unexpected treat for its 100th anniversary – an electric roadster.

MG’s 21st-century nod to its famous sports cars of decades past comes in just one specification for Australia and a price tag not typically associated with the brand these days: $115,000 before on-road costs.

The MG Cyberster is all-wheel drive via dual electric motors, producing combined power/torque outputs of 375kW and 750Nm. And it’s swift, with a claimed 0-100km/h sprint time of 3.2 seconds.

Here, Nathan Ponchard has just 24 hours with the Cyberster to find out if it offers drivers more than just fast electric performance.
