MG CyberX To Be A Land Cruiser-Style Big, Boxy Electric SUV
MG Motor has shown the world in recent years through its Cyber sub-brand that it is not only preparing to make affordable vehicles, but is also preparing to enter the lifestyle and premium segment. At the Shanghai Auto Show 2025, the company has introduced its new concept MG CyberX. It is a big, boxy electric SUV, whose design immediately reminds people of the Toyota Land Cruiser 300.
After the Cyberster roadster, this is the second major entry in MG’s Cyber series. The company says that CyberX is not just an SUV, but a “city adventure toy” that offers a great combination of style, technology and performance.

Exterior design and dimensions
The look of MG CyberX is quite muscular and boxy. Flat bonnet, wide wheel arches, large square windows and upright design give it a very powerful stance. At the front, there is a full-width LED light bar that extends to the edge of the bonnet, with the illuminated MG emblem positioned just below it.

The most special thing is the pop-up headlights, which remind of classic cars. Slab-sided bodywork, sleek roof rails, and seamless door handles give it a high-end appearance from the side. At the rear, large glass panels and sleek LED taillights make the SUV look strong and modern. Although the company has not revealed the exact dimensions, it is expected that this SUV will be about 4.8 meters long, close to the Toyota Land Cruiser.
Interior and technology
Inside, the MG CyberX has been designed to look futuristic. It will feature a fully digital cockpit and advanced smartphone connectivity through a partnership with Oppo. Horizon Robotics chip will power advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), while the new Zebra 3.0 operating system will enhance voice recognition and the overall digital experience. This SUV has been specifically created for youthful, tech-savvy consumers.
Platform and Performance
MG CyberX is built on SAIC Motor’s E3 electric platform with Cell-to-Body (CTB) construction, meaning the battery will be directly integrated into the body. This makes the car more rigid, light and efficient. Both single-motor RWD and dual-motor AWD setups are supported by the E3 platform. Reports suggest that the AWD version of CyberX will be capable of accelerating from 0–100 km/h in less than 4 seconds.
Battery, Range and Charging
Although the company has not shared the full details of the battery, media reports reveal that it will likely come with a 70–80 kWh battery pack. The SUV is expected to offer a WLTP range of 400–480 km (about 250–300 miles) and support DC fast charging up to 150 kW. This ensures that the CyberX can handle long-distance travel without issues.

Special Features
- Pop-up headlights – a blend of classic design and futuristic approach
- Full-width LED light bars – both front and rear
- Dual-tone finish – floating roof with matte black paint
- Advanced ADAS tech – powered by Horizon Robotics chip
- Luxury digital cabin – fully connected and tech-heavy
Market Positioning
MG CyberX has been introduced as a lifestyle SUV. It is more of a city adventure SUV than a hardcore off-roader, aimed at drivers who prefer style and advanced technology. The Cyber brand itself is targeted at young and tech-savvy buyers.

Segment and competition
In China, the CyberX will compete with Smart #5 and Zeekr 7X. In the international market, it will stand against electric concepts like the Toyota Land Cruiser 300 and Mercedes G-Class. For India, its launch seems unlikely at the moment since it falls into the premium, high-cost category.
Price and launch timeline
The expected price of the MG CyberX is above ₹50 lakh (as per the Chinese market). A global launch is possible by 2026. For India, the company has not revealed any official plans, though the Cyberster could arrive first, possibly followed by the CyberX in limited numbers later.
Conclusion
MG CyberX is not just another SUV, but a reflection of MG’s future vision. With its boxy look, pop-up headlights, cutting-edge tech features and powerful performance, it stands as a true lifestyle product. Even though it is currently limited to China and global markets, if it ever comes to India, it will certainly create a big impact in the luxury electric SUV segment.
