    MG Motor Australia has announced a new entry-level version of its Cyberster electric roadster, which drops the starting price of the Chinese brand’s flagship sports car to just under $100,000.

    The new 2025 MG Cyberster 77kWh RWD joins the existing 77kWh AWD variant released in August 2024, running the same ternary lithium-ion battery but with a single-motor rear-wheel drive setup. Pricing start from $99,900 before on-road costs in Australia, $15,100 less than its dual-motor all-wheel drive sibling.

    MG’s new base Cyberster variant generates 250kW of power and 475Nm of torque from its rear-mounted electric motor (versus 375kW/725Nm). Zero to 100km/h acceleration takes a claimed 5.2 seconds, and the NEDC driving range is quoted at 552km – versus 3.2 seconds and 500km for the AWD variant, respectively.

    Standard specification is largely the same as the dual-motor flagship, save for a couple of details.

    The Cyberster RWD swaps out the AWD’s Sport Package Alcantara interior upholstery for Nappa leather, and it rides on smaller 19-inch alloy wheels compared to the AWD’s 20s. All models are also now available in a new Mayfair Blue exterior paint (pictured up top).

    MG Motor also confirmed a new hardtop Cyberster GTS at this week’s Shanghai motor show, which is effectively a production version of the MG Cyber GTS concept car revealed at the 2024 Goodwood Festival of Speed last July.

    Further details are scant and the GTS is yet to be confirmed for Australia, so stay tuned for further updates as the Cyberster GTS nears its global market introduction in the coming months.
