Batteries are heavy.
If it was lighter, you'd complain about the range instead.
Making assumptions about what I'd "complain" about is pretty foolish. If it was lighter, you'd complain about the range instead.
I JUST WANTED TO KNOW HOW MUCH IT WEIGHS

With many manufacturers stopping/suspending electric car manufacturing, why is it electric? I would love to buy one but not electric. Wouldn’t it be great to make it eFuel, it would push the petrol suppliers to make it available at local petrol stations, perhaps encouraging petrol car users to start using it!
Buy absolutely any other sports car on the market then?NO LARD said:

Never mind that. Just look at the doors and the badge!
The doors are 'orrible!Not sure the badge means anything much to anyone any more.
I think it has a lot of F type about it on the side profile.
Overall, like it, but scissor doors always look like you have a 2003 Hyundai Coupe, are a bit mental and fitted them yourself along with some strange graphics, not right on anything other than an actual supercar.
The signature of the rear lights as an arrow, er, not sure, and the back is a bit droopy, need to see one in person.
Looks good in the grey with a red roof, should go very well even given its weight which is more luxo barge than sportscar, its still early days for electric sportscars, sixty grand gets you a lot of Exige and various other stuff. Suspect there may be some discounts down the line on these.
Hi there,
I have seen the Cyberster at a few events now and I am very impressed with it.
As an Alpine A110 owner I would seriously consider the MG when it comes time to change.
The Yellow car at Salon Prive last week was superb and I enjoyed having a good nosey around it as production cars get closer
Regards
Tim

"It’s been almost exactly three years since MG revealed its (British-designed) concept for a two-seat electric roadster. Now, following its official debut at Goodwood last year and after an 18-month performance and handling development programme overseen by the engineering team at Longbridge..."
I'm pleasantly surprised that Longbridge still has a design and engineering capability. I suppose all of the powertrain gubbins is developed in China, but having some skilled UK input is better than nothing.

I was rather hoping those "Arrow" tail lights weren't real. They do look a bit naff I must say. Spoils an otherwise quite nice bit of work.I have seen the Cyberster at a few events now and I am very impressed with it.

MG Cyberster Roadster 1985kg
Porsche Boxster 4.0 1480kg
It's not really a Boxster competitor; it's far closer in size and ethos to, say, a Mercedes SL or Jaguar F-type:Porsche Boxster 4.0 1480kg
F-type: 1818kg
Mercedes SL: 1,910kg
So it's still heavier, but not by a huge margin.

Circa 1800/1900 Kilos
ouch, I guess my hope that it would be around the 1600 mark was a bit optimistic ...It probably tips 2t for the GT by the time you've climbed aboard.
Love the lunacy of the doors, no doubt a pain to live with.
Wonder if they'll regret doing that in the same way Tesla/Musk regretted the Falcon doors on the Model X.
