Uploaded 1 year ago by Electrifying

Video Summary

Here's a summary of the YouTube video review of the electric car:
- The MG Cyberster is a clever mix of retro cues and modern flourishes, with classic round headlights and taillights.
- The Cyberster looks and feels like a premium car, bigger than expected, closer to a BMW Z4 than an MX5.
- The battery is slim, not even as tall as a can of coke, contributing to the car's sleek look.
- An electronically operated roof folds down in a few seconds; the boot is not electronically operated.
- The boot has 279 liters of space and will fit a set of golf clubs.
- The doors look great and are practical, being really handy in tight parking spaces.
- Sensors stop the doors from going too high and banging into the ceiling in multi-story car parks.
- There are four interconnected screens inside, curved around the center console, creating a cocooned feeling.
- There is also a screen with all the different driving modes and the option of one-pedal driving.
- There are two different sound settings: electroinduction and fuel sports car.
- Storage is not brilliant, but there is a handy storage area behind the driver and passenger.
- The steering wheel has a flat bottom and physical buttons; a ‘Super Sport’ button is on it.
- The interior has a really nice feel to it, but the paint quality in the strut looks like orange peel.
- There are two models available: the Trophy costs just under £55,000 and the AWD GT model,
- The single-motor Trophy has an official range of 316 miles. The GT has 276.
- With 335 brake horsepower, the rear-wheel Trophy has a five-second 0 to 62 time.
- It's got the handling and the steering which is also a nice weight; it's really well balanced.
- The overall conclusion is that MG has made a really brilliant and fun-to-drive Electric Car.
