That's valid, but, the Cyberster also has a 10 year warranty. So even if the reliability is questionable, and the vehicle has issues, it's got a great warranty.
The Cyberster is what happens when chinese cars follow the same 'Slow but perfect' formula many car manufacturers are doing right now. Its how Chinese car develop, improve so fast at the cost of less refinement and less rnd time/cost. The cyberster is already somewhat outdated with the range, infotainment (small 3 split screens in 2024 ???), but what it got right is so much better than what MG released several years ago, but because they developed this car for so long, the cost skyrocketed as well
@@bob808a great warranty is not just about the length of the warranty. Parts supply, service centre experience, quality of workmanship - there is so much more than the length of warranty that matters. Signed someone that has been burned in the past by manufacturers warranty.
its a very reasonable price. What you expect a car with a retractable roof, good interior, over 500hp, awd and scissor doors to be less than a 100k?? This whole brand argument is bs. Like the brand needs to profit too you know. If that badge was replaced with an Audi or BMW everyone would've said, great value.
Agree, the whole ethos of an EV is to be affordable. Yes it's a nice car but there is no way it cost anywhere near that to make it. It's way over priced
You all talk about this "depreciating" EV prices, can one of you please show some evidence? Every 2nd hand EV I've seen has had similar or LESS depreciation than regular ICE/Hybrids.

MG’s were cheap sports cars. That’s why they were so popular. I like the car. But the price and all of those screens that you can’t see, it’s such a distraction. They should have called it the MGE. Cyber these days has been used too much. Maybe they should have used a quad steering wheel like the Austin Allegro. I’m sorry, I’m an MG and BMC fanatic. I love the fact that MG and Mini are still around, but they have absolutely no connection to the original cars. I guess Mini does a bit. As it was developing a new Mini while still under Rover. Such a shame, and yet both companies always throw out videos of people comparing them. MG is Chinese and it’s amazing how many people still think it British. I hate seeing MG3’s with Union Jack flags on the roof. Sorry, just pissed off. Sorry.
Love your work, thanks for the review! Don’t like the back (my opinion). Dare I say clusterF instead if fighter style cockpit? Manual steering tilt in 2024? Delay on throttle has been an issue in their fuel cars too. It’s a safety risk coz you don’t know when the car is going to decide to react to you stepping on the accelerator! I sold my MG HS because of that. Rev counter on an electric car? If good on straight but not corners, are we remembering what Jeremy Clarkson said about the American cars? Plz test if you can start the car, and reverse into something in the future? I have done that 2x with my MG…. Happy NY25!
I dunno about the price, but for sheer looks, this is great. It would be really enlightening to know what the price would have been if govt import tariffs were not levied on it.
I'd like to see how an equivalent BYD would be. This car is already very nice. Also the Cyberster wasn't designed to be an outright sports car. Its more of a gt that has some punch
Great review as always, Paul and team. Will be interested to see the depreciation and reliability of these in a couple of years....and subsequent review by ReDriven. Have a feeling the results may not be all that good....
I have one on the road in Shanghai since Jan last year, its a cruiser and obviously we paid a lot less than 120k for the car, so far very reliable no issues at all with the car, unfortunately the China software spec does not have all of the nice features you have for the RHD version - market requirements are different
My first good laugh for 2025, the price! Like many other people below, this is a crazy price point for this brand and the car. If you have the $120k you might be able to find a few more bucks for something new or near new with more pedigree. As is evident in Paul’s review, it looks fundamentally fine to drive but it just looks like it is trying too hard and look like parts of other brands (names withheld) in some areas. You will probably have fun along the way but keep the defib pack handy at trade-in time to see what your $120k is now worth to the marketplace.
Three 7 inch dash screens and they couldn't even bother making it look like a single screen. That's already aside from their awful mechanical issues. Price was their only attraction, no one in their right mind will buy this.
Nice, but it’s just TOO damned expensive. At the end of the day, it’s still an MG, and has software that’s often less than perfect. (The Tesla M3P is waaay better value for money, and just happens to far more efficient as well. Yeah - not a convertible, but having owned one in the past, it’s rare to have both the road and weather conditions for it be good having the top down. Convertible cars are actually HIGHLY impractical about 97% of the time. I’m not sure I’d ever want to own another.)
Spoke to an MG dealer in Western Australia recently, they advised they have sold 6 cars to date in all of Australia. Clearly shows how disconnected MG is when it came to positioning the vehicle in the market. $60,000 - $70,000 would have been more realistic for this.
A very decent first go from MG, but $30-40k over the odds? 100km/h braking in 36m is great. Anything above 40m should never get 5star safety rating! Let alone all those 50m+ utes/4wds.
BINGO. Then I did everything right. I will receive my Cyberster Single Motor (White/red) in February and it will replace the last petrol engine, a TT Roadster. I will enjoy the first rays of sunshine in spring.
I think the reason the prices are so ridiculously high is because they know the cars are going to depreciate a lot so for a starting price of 120k after 5 years it might go down to 55k or so but if the original price was 75k then it would go.down to 35k or lower and they dont eeally want people to obtain cars at such a low cost. We know car manufacturers are trying their best to stop people profiting of their cars when they buy a model in demand and sell it at a premium so they purposely over price them.
You'd have to be a fool to drop$115k on one of these! If you got that kind of money petrol not an issue. Maserati Grecale GT/Levante GT and Porsche Macan 💩 all over this for a little more, cheaper with 20k odo second hand.
As an MG4 owner, I’m seeing a lot of similarities in the design and in some of the software. So basically it’s a convertible MG4 for over double the price.
You may notice my icon at the front is an MG. I have a few. But I have not got this car on my list to own. Way too expensive, I would get a Boxster. I want handling.
Not quite the same category but I'd save $40k and buy a much more refined, quieter, faster charging, better software, better handling, better sound system and more efficient Model 3 performance. (What a mouthful). I always love the honest reviews Paul!
On the onset, $110,000 does seem feral for an mg. But luxury convertibles, excluding the mx5, are very expensive, and dont offer the power this does. Id opt for the mustang, but this makes 100 odd hp over the mustang, blows the z4 and mini out of the water. The 10 year warrenty is killer too.
It's a Halo Car, much like the NSX was to Honda. I really doubt they'll be making much money out of it as the sales numbers will be low but for marketing purposes it hits the spot and gets people talking about the brand.
I am very interested to see if the electric sports car market takes off. If you have enough money to buy a sports car. You generally want it to make sports car noises. The GT car market might be more accepting. But I wouldn't call that a thriving market either. Also. Can you call the MG Cyberster a GT car if the car only has 400kms of range? It means you cant tour much in your grand tourer...

How will you get in the car if some people parks really close to you on both sides😅
115k for a MG. 😂😂😂😂
On the onset, $110,000 does seem feral for an mg. But luxury convertibles, excluding the mx5, are very expensive, and dont offer the power this does. Id opt for the mustang, but this makes 100 odd hp over the mustang, blows the z4 and mini out of the water. The 10 year warrenty is killer too.
Love this and its a great concept but there is no way im buying a car like this without a drift mode
Useless
MG should partner with MX5 like ABARTH did
It's a Halo Car, much like the NSX was to Honda. I really doubt they'll be making much money out of it as the sales numbers will be low but for marketing purposes it hits the spot and gets people talking about the brand.
I am very interested to see if the electric sports car market takes off. If you have enough money to buy a sports car. You generally want it to make sports car noises. The GT car market might be more accepting. But I wouldn't call that a thriving market either.
Also. Can you call the MG Cyberster a GT car if the car only has 400kms of range? It means you cant tour much in your grand tourer...
I cannot go 400km without a break, can you?
If you go out of your way to buy an electric version of a cabriolet you probably dont want it to sound like an ICE equivalent.
115k overpriced..Rear vision mirror is manually adjusted for day and night..
Too many screens..
60k car at best
Oh dear, the manually adjusted mirror ,sounds so traumatic, how will people cope.😅😅😅,
That looks absolutely hideous
Good to see look down for so long while moving to turn off all the driver distractions, feel safer already.
Nice, but I see there's an Audi Etron GT demonstrator in Tassie for just a little more.
