Wouldn't MG let you drive it at more than 20mph? I don't think I have ever seen a sports car driven soooo slowly.

[@InsideChinaAuto]

Restrictions on the drone, having it fly in an unfamiliar place, and it being a very public road. It was afraid of the trees hence the speed. Drove it plenty faster but without the drone.

[@darkmatter6714]

Not to my taste. It looks like a life-long nerd who’s suddenly decided, after a mid life crisis, to dress all cool but doesn’t know how and keeps making fashion mistakes. Those doors don’t suit the body, they look OTT and out of sequence with the rest of the car and the front lip reminds me of an Inostrancevia. The back end is a mess - huge arrows framed by an angular strip light which doesn’t match the rest of the design language. It’s incoherent. I’m getting visions of a aviator sun shades-donning, aging playboy, who’s wearing a pony tail to compensate for his bald patch.

[@InsideChinaAuto]

I get your point, it is trying very hard for attention. I don't mind the doors so much, but I think a more curved running light at the back would definitely have been a better look.

That Cyberster is a homerun for looks. That is the opposit of the endless line of deadly boring EV's for the boring masses. The silouette of these SUV's and salons are all the same and you have to come up close to 1 meter to see what brand it is. This MG is great, fresh, and beautifull. But sadly, it will be like "unobtainium" when it arrives in the EU. What we need, is something like this, but for €30.000. Drop the scissor doors, the 23 bose speakers, the 3 sec for 0 to 100kmh can be 7 sec, and the rangs is perfect with 320km to. The price can be half and still have heaps of fun.

[@InsideChinaAuto]

I'm hoping maybe they'll make a standard doors version with less screens and the lower power motor for a good every level model. Will likely still be expensive though.

[@dereklupton5259]

[@InsideChinaAuto]

[@johnknight9150]

Very glad this exists, hope it does well. But what I really hope they do is make a _very_ basic roadster again, the kind of thing Sarah Jane Smith would probably drive. Something with engineering input from Longbridge, and a focus on RHD markets (MG does very well in Australia, FYI).

[@InsideChinaAuto]

Hope it does well too. It should given how good it is, price may be the only stickler but if you're going EV, it's the only option you have for this type of car. Doubt they'll offer a more basic option but one that does with the two outer screens and the scissor doors could come in as a really good budget option.

[@DavidKnowles0]

You get rid of that by simply producing great looking cars. That what MG are currently doing. I do wonder if it is worth manufacturing this and surely other high end cars that MG are designing in the UK. Especially with wages an other manufacturing advantages in China fast disappearing. MG 4 and other cars probably wouldn't work economically but this and surely other high end sports cars and sedans could. Especially with a good government incentive.

This doesn't bode well, how can I trust your review when we have no video evidence of your description of its handling and speed?

[@InsideChinaAuto]

Footage isn't necessarily representative of how a car is driven. For my reviews, as a lone reviewer without a camera man, I prefer to drive the car first, get to know it as much as possible, and then I get time to film. Given we had all of 7 hours, half of which were lashing it down, in a place I've never been before, some shots are simply dictated by what you can get at the time.

Quite possible, the reverso conversion. Shouldn't be too difficult.

[@notroll1279]

I wondered about that, too. Many who can afford such a car may not like scissor doors (or have vowed to age with some dignity...). Lamborghini started these doors, they didn't catch on for a reason, and everyone else using them looks like a cheap knockoff.

[@herbh9348]

Nice looking, but the fat steering wheel covers a good portion of the gauges forcing you to move your head left to right, right to left. For a 100yr anniversary launch, fell short there.? Too bad no hybrid option, not having a sports exhaust sound seriously deflates the purpose of having a true roadster. The all monotone interior color on this one is a little much. Im sure other options exist. Overrall, nice looking except the arrow brake lights, backbend slightly boring. Price is pretty attractive if they keep it under 45k, but i think its projected to be 10k more than that. Love the scissor doors.

[@InsideChinaAuto]

Yeah, the screens are a bit of a weird one, very awkward to use because if the wheel. And it does feel weird without an engine sound too (the less said about the digital one the better), but I suppose you can hear other things instead. Overall nice car, but divisive for sure.

I want one.

[@InsideChinaAuto]

I wouldn't mind one either.

[@jesuschrist2284]

Lol 60k. Who knew plastic cost that much?

[@InsideChinaAuto]

There's barely any plastic in it. The only obvious plastic is that around the cup holders, everything else is leather or microfibre.

[@jesuschrist2284]

@@InsideChinaAuto the hinges of the compartments looked plastic and most of the rest of the interior. Im not sure 60k for a chinese made mg is viable. Their other ranges in the uk struggle to sell without big discounts and they're already cheap. Their are a lot of nice good convertibles for much less in the uk but if you're determined to move your exhaust emissions from where you drive to power stations with the roof down, your options are limited. This vid smells of ccp propaganda though

[@InsideChinaAuto]

@jesuschrist2284 Of course hinges of compartments are plastic. Have you sat in a Mercedes recently? The whole thing is plastic. You want to say that's Chinese? MG was the 13th best-selling brand in the UK last year, they seem to be doing totally fine unless you live in Richmond and never leave your cul-de-sac.

[@jesuschrist2284]

@@InsideChinaAuto im just saying 60k is highly optimistic and they discount their ranges regularly

[@InsideChinaAuto]

@jesuschrist2284 They might yet offer it for 50 at the base end, they haven't given any clear figures yet but this is a massive step up on their usual stuff.

[@axelamps1279]

Wow, what a nauseating botfest of positivity! THAT is not an MG, it's a Chinese electric car branded to sell to the Brits.

[@InsideChinaAuto]

And it's working, so get used to it.

[@fireice6190]

I have no problem with that

[@EverydayRoadster]

Cameras poking out from the mirrors, door button sticking out the sidewall - what is the impression of those design features when looking at it in real life? In the video, this looks alien.

[@InsideChinaAuto]

You don't notice the cameras on the mirrors but you do notice the nodule with the buttons to open the scissor doors. Not a huge issue though, you're generally admiring the rest of the car.

[@RaoGrande]

Should have included at least a few seconds on what the fake engine generation option sounds like

[@InsideChinaAuto]

Ha, I'd rather not. Worst part of the car. Turn them off and burn them.

[@ianpolo5673]

Wow, what a looker! Has abit of Corvette vide to it though.

It is a real looker. Stunning in the metal.

[@seanns1945]

2:26...that boot lid does not look it lines up very well the the body

[@InsideChinaAuto]

I think it might be the angle. It didn't look particularly out of place in real life.

[@jeffb5798]

Looks interesting, but no China-owned vehicles for me.

It's proved nothing. This thing might fall apart after a couple of years.

Well then it would be just like any other MG sports car. Doesn't stop it proving it can do sports cars.
