For whatever its worth here's a screen shot of the Cyberster software version in Thailand. Seems the various versions are not really easy to decipher. My version is R23? No updates are available.

Hi, I had my annual service done here in Thailand yesterday. (actually its 14 months now but we did a "preliminary service" at 6 months while having a few things looked at) My Cyberster has 17,000+ kilometers. The service took about 90 minutes. Cost was equivalent 62 pounds. Nothing to report...

Hi, I don't use one pedal mode. At the Bangkok Motorshow I asked the MG product manager about what the Supersport button does. He said, "its as stated in the manual". I asked if it added power or other enhancements and he said, um,,,uh,,, no. (some hesitation meaning he either didn't precisely...

My Cyberster is dual motor. Thailand. (we don't get the single motor variant, hence no reference to GT or Trophy). Sport Mode and SuperSport Mode are functionally the SAME. For practical purposes no discernible difference. In SuperSport Mode (IF on a racetrack) certain driver aids can be...

Hi, I asked the dealer here in Thailand about the openings near the front shock towers and they assured me they were not meaningful. :unsure: I then confirmed with MG Thailand and was told I could cover the openings without issues. So,,,,,I cut some pieces from 3 mil rubber sheet and used...

There are 3 speakers in the back. One behind each seat (left and right) and one in the middle a bit lower which one would expect is the subwoofer. The power out of those is very weak. The music source material helps a bit if its lossless or uncompressed but none the less the contribution is next...

In my "GT" in comfort mode the car is indeed rear wheel drive only. I have however observed the drive graphic with the front wheels illuminating blue briefly. This seems to occur when there is a momentary loss of traction in the rear. Thus "maybe" the response is for the front motor to...

Hi, Oops obvious "typo". The actual metric is 14.8 Kwh/100km. Which equates to 4.2 mi/Kwh.

Yes indeed the enemy of battery efficiency is temperature and speed. The average ambient temperature for my drives is about 30 degrees C. Its easy for the battery and HVAC (aircon) to manage. As for speed,,, averaging 70-80 km/hr on rural roads makes for some really good efficiency. My Tesla...

Hi, Oops correction on the efficiency in units. Its actually 14.8 Kwh per 100 km. (I somehow in my head had liters of course which is ICE related). This equates to about 4.2 miles per Kwh. I live rural with predominantly 2 lane country type roads. Hence the modest driving speeds on normal daily...

Hi, I experienced the same phenomena. I changed the regen to level 1 with some improvement (y) but, it did not totally eliminate the condition.

Hi, The difference in weight is less than 5% or about the weight of an average man. (depending where you live 😂) I doubt its material to street handling. The GT with its front motor puts weight distribution at an even 50/50 instead of the 51/49 rear bias for the Trophy. This might be the...

Apparently the safety ratings don't apply to Tesla. The settings can be selected in each user profiles and remain disabled when shut down and restarted.

Hi, I understand the general concept surrounding the user experience of a manual ICE car operation vs EV. My comment specifically addressed the notion of weight as mentioned in your statement regarding "twice the mass to be shifted in corners". Many of the Cyberster reviews have confirmed the...

The competition of the Cyberster is not the MX5. Cars that have an exemplary reputation for great handling are performance and GT oriented in nature could be the BMW performance cars. The M3 Competition purported to be one of the finest handling cars weighs 3890 lbs. The M5 weighs 5251 lbs. A...
