MG Cyber GTS Concept previews Cyberster coupe
A new MG roadster wouldn't be complete without a coupe companion - a GTS suggests it's coming soon
Consider this something of a scoop. Ahead of a reveal at the Goodwood Festival of Speed later, we’ve seen the MG Cyber GTS Concept in the first glance paddock. Very little has been released by MG about it thus far, though it doesn’t requite amazing powers of deduction to see it previews what a hardtop, 2+2 Cyberster could look like.
To these eyes it’s a very encouraging look at what a future MG coupe could be, tauter and more aggressive than the soft top while still retaining some quite pretty details. The rear light in particular seems to really suit the rump of a long nose, short-tail sports car. Dark green will always help a favourable impression, especially when paried with white wheels like a proper old hot rod, though this week more than ever it’s nice to see an electric coupe that actually seems like a small(ish), rear-drive sports car.
In among the crowds that are already descending on FoS, it’s hard to glean very much more about the Cyber GTS Concept for now. Expec additional details to follow with a full reveal later. The Cyberster soft top gets 340hp as a single-motor, rear-drive Trophy or more than 500hp as an AWD GT. Should something like the GTS make production, using those powetrains - or perhaps something even more potent - seems likely. Given the momentum currently behind MG and the production ready look of the concept, don’t be surprised if the GTS is a roadgoing reality very soon. If Porsche are doing an electric sports car in both formats, so can MG. More as we have it.
