It is reported that MG will release its Cyberster for delivery before the summer of 2024. From the looks of it – this shall be worth waiting for…
Apart from the very stylish scissor doors, let’s start with the fact that it will be an electrical car, with rear wheel drive and 309 bhp as standard. A performance version will have 536 bhp (dual motor). This should indeed be a fast car to drive, no doubt. The range is expected to be around 450 kilometers.
The front of the car looks pretty as expected, I would say. Very nice, but kind of familiar. The rear is a bit more untraditional, with almost Polestar like sharp light edges, and to this the arrow like rear lights. The electrical soft top creates a sleek and smooth line towards the rear.
Interior wise it would be available (as option) with a Tesla like half full steering wheel and four digital displays as standard (!).
The prices are not known at the moment, but let’s hope it would be quite available. Could this perhaps be a real challenger to the Mazda MX5 in 2024?
Well, how long have we not been waiting for this great news – an electric car as convertible! It will be insanely interesting to hopefully be able to test drive and experience this car not too long in the future. It should really be an even better experience as electric – to be able to even better hear the pleasant noice from singing birds, the nature and environment while driving.
The new electrical car is named Mini Cooper SE Convertible and will be made in an exclusive amount of 999 cars. The manufacturing for the European market starts in April.
The convertible will have the same drivetrain and battery pack as the “normal” Mini Cooper SE (the electrical version). The engine produces 184 bhp and the range will be 201 kilometers.
It is now three years since the all electric Mini Cooper SE was launched. 20% of all Mini cars that are sold today is this fully electrical version.
– This success has encouraged us to implement this small series of Mini Cooper SE Convertible in just a few months from now. I am glad that we will be able to offer 999 Mini customers their extraordinary and exclusive outdoor go-cart feeling, says Stefanie Wurst, manager of the Mini brand.
The convertible is a four seater. It will come with leather sport seats and sport steering wheel in nappa leather as standard. Heating in the seats and steering wheel is a great feature for the Nordic (sometimes cold) summer climate.
The car will be available in two colours: Enigmatic Black and White Silver. Number 1 to 999 will be marked in the bottom panels of the the in-step to the car and as side panels on the outside.
Right now, it is not clear how many will come to Sweden or the Nordics. It is not clear either what the price might be. The base price for the standard (non convertible) Mini Cooper SE is about 39 000 EUR and for the fully equipped version about 45 000 EUR.
We hope, quite naturally, that we will have a large amount of the 999 to the Nordic market. I will personally keep a close eye on where it might be available to check out and test drive – that should be really interesting to experience. Perhaps we have a lucky customer to us, that has got his/hers hands on one of these 999? Then please get in contact and book a visit to Toplift at Orust – perhaps if I am really lucky, you could take me along for a short drive?
