The MG Cyberster has only recently entered production, but the Chinese-owned brand has revealed a tantalising follow-up.
Officially called a concept, the MG Cyber GTS “explores the further potential for MG creating a new future for a GTS model in the EV era”.
It was revealed at the Goodwood Festival of Speed as part of the brand’s 100th anniversary celebrations.
MG says it pays homage to the MGC GTS Sebring, which in 1968 secured MG’s highest-ever factory result at the 12 Hours of Sebring, bested by just two other vehicles in the prototype class which weren’t related to any road-going sports cars.
But MG also has a rich heritage of offering road-going coupe versions of its roadsters, including the MGC and MGB GT, creating a precedent for a production version of this latest concept.
The Cyber GTS doesn’t mess with the Cyberster’s lines, and features a rakish roofline – arguably more so than the MGC and MGB GT of yore – with a steeply raked rear window.
No powertrain details were revealed for the concept, though MG says it features rear-wheel drive.
The related Cyberster is available with either single-motor rear-wheel drive or dual-motor all-wheel drive powertrains, though MG Motor Australia has only confirmed the latter for the model’s local launch in the fourth quarter of 2024.
The rear-wheel drive Cyberster produces between 231kW and 250kW of power, depending on the variant, and 475Nm of torque.
The all-wheel drive version bumps these outputs up to 400kW and 725Nm.
The Cyberster offers a choice of 64kWh or 77kWh batteries, and offers up to 508km of range on the WLTP cycle.
The Cyberster is not only the brand’s first electric sports car, it’s MG’s first new sports car since coming under Chinese ownership.
When it comes here, it’ll be the most expensive Chinese MG ever offered here, with a before on-roads price set to be somewhere between $100,000 and $150,000.
