Developed by a team at the MG Advanced Design Center in London, the Cyberster draws certain cues from the classic MGB Roadster from the 1960s, such as the circular headlights and the slim grille design. The headlights are dubbed “Magic Eye” because they open when the car is switched on.
Other design highlights include the “laser belt” LED strip traveling across the side of the car all the way to the doors, the two-stage shoulder line, the flat rear end, and the LED taillights featuring British flag-like graphics.

“The Cyberster is a bold statement that looks strongly into MG’s future, touching on our heritage but more importantly building on our cutting-edge technology and advanced design. Sports cars are the lifeblood of the MG DNA and Cyberster is a hugely exciting concept for us.”
MG boasts some impressive performance figures for the Cyberster concept such as a drive range of up to 800 km, and the capability to achieve 0-100 km/h in under 3 seconds.
