Mercedes-Benz EQE vs MG Cyberster
Verdict
At RM379,888 against RM299,900, the Mercedes-Benz EQE asks a hefty RM79,988 more, but it is the proper executive EV here: five seats, a 430-litre boot, 90.6 kWh battery and 669 km range. The MG Cyberster is the quicker, sharper brief on paper, with 338 hp and 0-100 km/h in 5.0 seconds, but it is a two-seat convertible with 508 km range and 249 litres of luggage space. For Malaysia, this is daily-use depth versus weekend pace.
Pick the Mercedes-Benz EQE if you need five seats, longer 669 km EV range and a bigger 430-litre boot in an executive sedan.
Pick the MG Cyberster if you want a rear-drive electric convertible with 338 hp, 0-100 km/h in 5.0 seconds and a lower entry price.
