JAKARTA - Since debuting at the Goodwood Festival of Speed in England which took place from 13 to 16 July, MG Cyberster immediately stole attention thanks to its stunning design, although the manufacturer has not provided much technical details.

However, at the current Chengdu Motor Show exhibition in Sichuan, China, the manufacturer finally revealed the capabilities of the world's first convertible soft-top electric car with this scissors door.

MG Cyberster carries a large 77 kWh capacity battery which is claimed to be capable of providing a distance of up to 580 km in one charge. Not only that, but MG Cyberster also appears strong with two electric motors that produce a total of 536 dk. MG also stated that the maximum torque reaches 725 Nm, capable of driving from 0 to 100 km/hour in less than three seconds.

MG Cyberster has a typical proportion of European convertible cars. Quoted from Carbuzz, August 26, with the support of the new electric architecture, the car shows a dynamical and strong posture with a wide width. In terms of size, the MG Cyberster is slightly larger than the Mazda MX-5 Miata. With a length of 178.5 inches from front to back and 75.3 inches wide. Because the battery is large, the MG Cyberster weighs significantly, reaching 1850 kg. While consumers can choose a wheel size of 19 or 20 inches.

In addition to the dual-motor variant, there is also a version with one electric motor that drives the rear wheels. This version is powered by a 64 kWh battery that is more compact but still offers a dynamic driving experience of 310 dk.

The MG Cyberster interior is a modern and contemporary work of art. The central and dashboard consoles create a cabin that really prioritizes the driver's experience. Elegant skin details and large infotainment screen dominate the cabin. Striking electric scissors doors are one of the flagship features of the MG Cyberster and are increasingly beautifying this attractive package. For the addition, there is also a Yoke type of steering wheel.

For information, the performance electric car market, especially the convertible type, is still very limited. When the MG Cyberster finally arrives at the global market in 2024, it will compete with strong competitors such as Tesla Roadster and Porsche who are developing a successor to an electric Boxster. In addition, there is also Maserati and GranCabirio Folgore who are ready to compete in the same segment.
