MG Cyberster Will Arrive in Australia North of $100,000


MG was known for its beautiful sports cars, both with and without a roof. MG Cyberster will arrive in Australia costing between $100,000 and $150,000. That’s a bunch of bucks for a newish brand, especially one that has concentrated on cheap and cheerful, entry level motoring. Asking buyers to make the mental leap is going to take much effort.

MG Motor Australia’s National Sales Manager, Brad Chruszcz said Australia is ready to take the wraps off its new all-electric roadster, the MG Cyberster, designed in its London studio, to arrive in Australia in Q4, 2024.

“We’re really excited to be opening dealer orders and our official register your interest for our all electric roadster, the Cyberster, featuring signature scissor doors as envisioned by Carl Gotham and his MG London design team.”

“Remember the original MG? Small and affordable, fun-driving roadsters like the 1960s’ and 1970s’ MGB and 1990s’ MG F? Well, decades later, it’s back and thriving with the Cyberster and I’m so excited to get our customers into these cars. Dealers are taking orders as we speak with the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) range will fall between $100,000 and $150,000. Exact MSRP figures will be finalised closer to the launch date.”

While I’m not sure a car north of 100k can be considered affordable, Cyberster has a funky name, and looks beautifully ballsy in pictures. MG should put its big-boy pants on and go for it. Revealing the Cyberster in all its boy-racer glory will have people will either loving or hating it, but they won’t be ignoring it.

“The Cyberster will be offered with a fully-electric fabric hood available in either a deep red or black which can be opened or closed in as little as 15 seconds, at this stage, the all wheel-drive Cyberster promises to be a compelling yet refined drive as we’re only looking to bring the 77 KWH AWD variant to Aussie shores.”

There was a time, only a few short years ago, when the MG executives with tickled pink to see an MG on Sydney streets being driven by someone who didn’t work for MG. So much has changed.

MG promises a soft-top coupé to rivel the best Europe has to offer. It will be tasteful, luxurious, and powerful. Previews of overseas models see a scissor-door rag top with a much-praised interior. It is a long way from the humble MG found in current showrooms, so will it fly? According to those who have driven it, yes it does, with big, blousy knobs on.

“The Cyberster pays respects to 100 years of MG creating vehicles that people love to drive. I want it to be Q4 already so we can share our first ground-up, all-electric roadster with Aussie enthusiasts. We will be bringing limited numbers of these cars into the country so it’ll definitely be a case of supply verse demand given the interest we’ve already had from the public and our 90+ dealers,” he says.

MG will share full Cyberster pricing and specification closer to the launch date, but if overseas reviews are anything to go by, buckle up buds.
