When it comes to the mg brand, it boasts that it carries the century-old mg sports car gene and the design concept of a two-seater convertible. Among them, mg tf was the first domestically produced soft-top convertible sports car in the domestic market at that time, but there has been no convertible sports car since. , until the emergence of mg cyberster. mg cyberster (ask for lowest price | check for configuration) will be officially launched at the Guangzhou Auto Show in 2023. At that time, three models were first launched. This year, another model full of "rareness" has been launched, which is the legendary four-wheel drive red hood version of the MG Cyberster. Many people see the performance of this car and think it can be the perfect replacement for the Porsche 718 .
Unique car paint + attractive red top
The biggest selling point of the mg Cyberster legendary four-wheel drive red top version is the exclusive modern rice body and ruby red top design. Among them, the color of Modern Rice is mainly soft and warm. For the brand, it is a tribute to the historical classic models of the MG brand, perfectly integrating retro elegance with modern vitality.
In fact, it seems that the texture of this car body color is very strong. According to reports, the manufacturer uses a proprietary pipeline spraying process to ensure the uniformity and fineness of the modern meter body color. Combined with the waterproof coating and insulation layer, it not only shows a unique personality in appearance , and also has a one-way heat exchange function, which can effectively resist external heat while preventing heat loss in the car.
The design of the red soft top is inspired by rubies. Set against the soft and warm tones of modern rice, the red top is even more eye-catching. In addition, the red soft top is often seen on the Porsche 718 and Porsche 911. This time, the same equipment is implemented on the legendary four-wheel drive red top version of the MG Cyberster, which costs more than 360,000 yuan. The most important thing is that this red canopy is not only very ornamental, it also uses imported custom fabrics, which has a certain degree of rarity. Finally, this red hood can be opened and closed in 10 seconds at a speed of less than 50km/h.
Returning to the specific appearance design, other aspects of the MG Cyberster Legend 4WD Red Roof Edition are consistent with the MG Cyberster Legend 4WD Edition. First of all, the entire vehicle continues the classic European roadster styling style, with a relatively low-profile and dynamic stance. When it comes to the front hood, it has a streamlined downward swooping trend, and the left and right sides are equipped with oval-shaped light groups. The official calls it the "eye of the storm." The light group integrates a central matrix light source and three arc-shaped light strips.
Due to its special identity as a new energy source, the front of the car uses a sealed design, which forms a family-style smiling face with the sports front surround underneath. The air vents on both sides are designed with a wind blade shape, which matches the front bumper shape mentioned above. It can make the airflow combing more unobstructed.
On the side of the car, you can see the two-section waistline extending from the front of the car to the door, which is officially called the leopard leaping shoulder line. The engine room is located in the center of the body, achieving perfect weight distribution with an axle load ratio of 49:51 (rear-drive version). In addition, the wind resistance is wide, the body is low and the posture is low, and the wind resistance coefficient is only 0.269cd.
Of course, the most eye-catching side is the scissor door design on both sides. It is also the only soft-top convertible with scissor doors in the world. In fact, the convertible can achieve an electric opening and closing angle of 30°-76° for the scissor doors. Then some people may ask, will the scissor door easily hit people or lower obstacles? The answer is no. The scissor door of mg Cyberster has sensor probes on the top and sides. When approaching obstacles or people, it will immediately stop opening the door. In addition, the scissor door has four ways to open the door, two inside and outside the door, behind the center console and behind the seats.
However, the door opening button on the outside of the scissor door can be optimized later. Sometimes it does not open automatically even if there are no obstacles. If it can be supported to bring the key close to the vehicle, and then the vehicle can automatically unlock + automatically open the scissor door, then the sense of ritual will be stronger.But the current configuration of scissor doors + soft top convertible is enough to make you the most handsome guy on the street.
Other design highlights on the side of the car include blackened side skirts and multi-spoke 20-inch front and rear wheels, all equipped with Pirelli P zero series tires. The front tire size is 245/40 r20 and is equipped with red Brembo large-piston brake calipers. The rear tire size is 275/35 r20 and has ordinary red brake calipers.
The tail shape has a strong three-dimensional feel. There is a ring-shaped through-type LED taillight at the top close to the duck tail shape, and in the middle is the controversial arrow-shaped taillight set. At least no other car uses a similar taillight design. . The diffuser shape of the rear enclosure further emphasizes movement. Finally, the length, width and height of mg Cyberster are 4535/1913/1329mm respectively, and the wheelbase is 2690mm

The interior color is burgundy, giving people a British luxury style. The entire interior adopts an enveloping design, which allows the driver to easily access every detail of the central control.

In actual operation, the screens on both sides are very smooth, the hierarchical relationship is clear, and it is smooth and easy to use.
The three-spoke flat-bottom steering wheel is wrapped in leather, and the flat bottom part below is also decorated with chrome plating, which has a strong texture. But in fact, if you want to maximize the display effect of the ring-shaped triple screen at the back, because this car has a relatively low sitting position, there is a certain chance of conflict between adjusting the height of the steering wheel and the line of sight. A special-shaped steering wheel like the previous concept car would be better. It also feels full of science fiction. There are paddles on the back of the steering wheel. The left side controls the intensity of kinetic energy recovery, and the right side controls the driving mode.
Secondly, there are two round buttons on both sides below the steering wheel. The lower left is the driving assistance function switch, and the super sport red button is on the right. If you press the super sport button, there will be an exclusive instrument theme, such as acceleration g value, 0-100km/h acceleration time and lap speed, etc.
The fourth screen is set next to the gear handle and is mainly used for vehicle control, driving assistance function adjustment and ambient light adjustment. Other highlights include 256-color ambient lighting, suede sports seats (the adjustment buttons are set on the scissor doors, the main driver has a three-speed seat memory function, and the fabric is made of alcantara), heated front seats, and an 8-speaker Bose sound system. , active acoustics, L2-level assisted driving system, 360-degree panoramic images and other luxurious configurations.
