Among its standout features, the Cyberster showcases an electrically adjustable folding roof and a unique sliding door design. Additionally, the door handle is positioned on the top of the door, starting from the A-pillar and extending towards the rear.
The Cyberster flaunts a sleek front end with a sloping hood and a lower air intake. The hood’s prominent bulge pays homage to MG’s past sports cars, despite the absence of a V8 engine underneath.

The vehicle’s proportions strike a balanced appeal suitable for a sports car, featuring a long hood and a muscular rear section. At the back, a full-width LED strip encompasses the tail of the car, while arrow-shaped taillights blend seamlessly into the black decorative air vent panel. The rear diffuser can be detached.
Inside the cabin, the Cyberster offers a two-seater configuration with a red theme. It boasts a curved digital instrument cluster and a driver-centered touchscreen on the central control panel.
