The introduction of the Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) programme reduces the upfront cost of ownership for both MG EVs. The MG Cyberster is priced at an ex-showroom price of Rs 82.49 lakh to Rs 87.49 lakh. Similarly, the MG M9 can be purchased directly, and its regular ex-showroom price ranges from Rs 79.95 lakh to Rs 84.94 lakh, depending on the variant.

MG Select's announcement of the Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) programme comes as the company expands access to its flagship EVs, the Cyberster and M9, through its dedicated luxury retail network. The Cyberster, a two-seat electric roadster inspired by the classic MGB, is powered by a dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup producing 510 PS and 725 Nm, enabling a 0-100 kmph sprint in around 3.2 seconds.
