A new variant of the upcoming MG Cyberster roadster has been teased in the form of the MG Cyber GTS coupe. It has just been revealed at the 2024 Goodwood Festival of Speed.
Sporting a stunning, tumbling roofline which evokes fabled MGs of yore such as the MGB GT coupe, the concept is finished in a deep pearlescent Teal colour which compliments its lines.
Compared with the roadster, it features exaggerated haunches and a svelte DLO, which incorporates the doorhandles. It seems like it does not feature scissor doors like its topless sister, but there is a faint hint of Jaguar F-Type in the car’s silhouette.
Around the back, the Union Jack motif of the roadster has been retained, and there is two additional seats behind the driver and front passenger, rendering this a 2+2 coupe. Carl Gotham, MG’s Advanced Design director, said:
“There is a real package there, and the study is there – it’s not just for show.” – This is a solid indication of this car’s production prospects.
The Cyberster is due to launch in Australia soon, offering a sub 3.0-second 0-100km/h time and battery sizes ranging from 64kWh to 77kWh in AWD form. Range varies from 501km to 580km, but the coupe’s potentially superior aerodynamic form factor may improve on these specs.
MG hasn’t specifically said if the powertrain will be identical to the convertible, but it does seem likely. In a statement, MG said:
“The Cyber GTS Concept explores the further potential for MG creating a new future for a GTS model in the EV era and follows in the footsteps of the Cyberster which is the world’s first open-top EV two-seater to go into production.”
