0 to 100 speed in 4.9 seconds! India's cheapest supercar reached showroom
New Delhi. JSW MG Motor announced its MG Select Program last year. Under this program, the company will launch the CBU (Complete Built Unit) model in India. The first model to be launched under this new program is Cyberester. It was introduced at the global level in All-Electric Roadster 2023 and was publicly showcased for the first time at the Bharat Mobility Expo early this year. Now this India's cheapest supercar has started reaching the showroom in India.

Soon the eyes will come on the road
Earlier it was expected that it would be launched in early 2025, but MG has not yet officially launched the cybrester in India. For this, pre-booking started in March this year on a token amount of Rs 51,000, which can be done from the MG select dealership or the company's official website. This electric sports car is now finally ready to run on Indian roads from the first week of July.

Mg cyberster reached showroom

Prior to the official launch, MG has started sending Cyberester units to the select showroom. A video uploaded on YouTube channel 'Automobile with Bruce' shows a brilliant red Mg Cyberester brought from the trailer truck to a showroom. Inspired by the 1960s famous MG B Roadster, Mg Cyberester combines the attraction of classic roadster with futuristic design and sophisticated technology. And this definitely attracts the attention of all the audience.

No disclosure of specification
MG has not yet officially explained the specifications of the India-Spec Cyberester, but we hope that it will be similar to the UK-spec model. The UK-spec Mg Cybrester is available in two variants: Trophy and GT. The trophy has a single-motor, rear-wheel drive (RWD) setup, while GT has dual-motor, all-wheel drive (AWD) configuration.

64 kwh lithium-ion battery
The entry-level RWD variant is powered by 64 kwh lithium-ion battery, which offers 310 bhp and 475 Nm of torque with rear-mounted electric motor. It takes just 4.9 seconds to catch the cybrester to catch a speed of 0 to 100 km/h and its top speed is 193 km/h. A similar configuration is also expected in the India-Spec version.

The Hyundai Creta EV is one of the most awaited electric cars in India and is expected to debut at the 2025 India Mobility Expo in January next year.

The Hyundai Creta EV is one of the most awaited electric cars in India, and is expected to make its debut at the India Mobility Expo in January next year. Hyundai has already introduced the Kona Electric and Ioniq 5 electric cars in India. However, the Kona Electric could not achieve the desired sales numbers, while the Ioniq 5, being a premium offering, also did not bring in much numbers for the automaker. In this situation, the Hyundai Creta EV could be a crowd puller for the South Korean auto major.

The Hyundai Creta has been one of the most successful SUVs ever since it was launched in India. The automaker aims to capitalise on this successful SUV by bringing the electric Creta. Since the automaker is currently working on the Creta EV, here are some key details of the upcoming electric SUV.

Hyundai Creta EV: Design and platform

The Hyundai Creta EV will be built on a modified version of the K2 architecture. Interestingly, the current ICE-powered Hyundai Creta is based on the K2 platform. Taking inspiration from the design philosophy of the Hyundai Kona Electric, it can be expected that the upcoming Hyundai Creta EV will share a wide range of design elements with its ICE sibling. However, it will also have a fair number of distinctive styling bits.

The Hyundai Creta EV will ditch the traditional front radiator grille in favour of a closed panel. There will be aero-alloy wheels to enhance aerodynamic efficiency, which plays a key role in ensuring optimum range for electric vehicles. Expect some distinctive EV-specific styling themes as well.

Hyundai Creta EV: Interior and Features

Given that Hyundai will position the Creta EV as an upmarket offering, the electric SUV will come with an interior that will carry the same vibe as the current ICE-propelled Creta. However, just like the exterior, it will have EV-specific styling features. The Hyundai Creta EV is expected to get a dual-screen setup combining a touchscreen infotainment system and instrument cluster. Other features will include a 360-degree surround view camera and a Level 2 ADAS suite.

Hyundai Creta EV: Powertrain

There is very little information about the powertrain and specifications of the upcoming Hyundai Creta EV at the moment. However, it is expected that the upcoming Creta EV will be available in two different battery pack options. Also, it will offer a range of up to 500 km on a single charge.

Launched in early August 2024, the Tata Curve EV is available with two battery pack options – a 45 kWh unit and a 55 kWh unit, promising a range of 502 km and 585 km, respectively. The Hyundai Creta EV is also expected to match these figures.

Take a look at the upcoming EV cars in India.
