MG Cyberster at autoX Awards: Best Cars of 2025 Ranked

The MG Cyberster isn’t just a car – it’s an object of pure desire. Low-slung, sculpted, and unapologetically futuristic, it looks as if a concept sketch has come to life on the tarmac. Those scissor doors rise skyward quite dramatically, while the roadster stance screams performance even at a standstill. But the Cyberster isn’t all show – far from it.

Under that striking design sit two electric motors producing a formidable 510bhp and 725Nm. With a claimed top speed of 200km/h and a 0 – 100 km/h time of just 3.2 seconds, this thing is properly quick. On the track, it rockets down straights and darts through corners with remarkable agility. That said, at nearly two tonnes, you do feel its weight during quick direction changes. Still, every input evokes an immediate response and is cleanly executed. The Cyberster doesn’t just look fast – it is fast. It features a 77kWh battery pack with a claimed range of 580km and can charge from . A DC fast charger can take it from 10% to 80% in just about an hour.

Slip into the driver’s seat, and you’re greeted by a chunky flat-bottomed steering wheel and a striking three-screen cockpit that’s futuristic and driver-focused. The cabin exudes a sense of quality – from the materials used inside to the overall fit and finish, everything feels premium and oozes quality. With the fabric roof up, insulation levels are impressive, muting most of the outside noise. Drop the top, and you get that classic wind-in-your-hair thrill without the chaos of buffeting – in fact, you can actually hold a conversation without shouting.

On the track, the Cyberster seems to be in its element – sharp, agile, and immensely engaging. However, step off the circuit and onto less-than-perfect Indian roads, and some of its compromises become apparent. The low ground clearance, sharply sculpted nose, and firm suspension setup don’t exactly make it ideal for everyday driving. Given the country’s hot weather, that roof will likely stay up most of the time. But then, the Cyberster was never meant to be a practical, all-season companion. Its purpose is clear – to turn heads, to make you feel something every time you see it, and to deliver electrifying on-track performance on demand. As India’s only all-electric drop-top convertible, it does precisely that with conviction, charisma, and just the right amount of madness.
