Scorpion is the name of an exhaust company, not a car name. Scorpion Exhaust: "Scorpion Exhaust" is an exhaust system produced by Akrapovic, abbreviated as AK exhaust. Since "Akrapovic" means "scorpion" in Turkish, it is also called "Scorpion Exhaust". Three major car series: American cars are characterized by their spaciousness, soft suspension, high torque, and excellent air conditioning, making them representatives of safety, comfort, and luxury. However, American cars are fuel-consuming due to their spaciousness, and their soft suspension makes them suitable for high-speed driving or turning, but they lack high horsepower at high speeds. Japanese and Korean cars are known for their smoothness, fuel efficiency, ease of driving, excellent paintwork, detailed instrumentation, and superior quality. Korean cars are similar in style to Japanese cars. Compared to American cars, European cars are renowned for their superior engines, with high compression ratios and high horsepower designs being common, and they are famous for their high-speed performance.

I remember the name 'Scorpion' sounds so familiar—that flashy purple scissor-door sports car at the MG booth during last year's auto show was called the Cyberster Scorpio! It's now officially launched, with the base model starting at just under 320,000 RMB. This car is fully electric, available in rear-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive versions. The RWD single-motor packs a punch with 310 horsepower, while the AWD dual-motor version rockets to 544 hp, hitting 0-100 km/h in just 3.2 seconds. Its head-turning design steals the show—not a single straight line on the body, guaranteeing max street presence. The trunk is a bit small (typical sports car compromise), but it’s perfect for young couples cruising on dates.

Old car enthusiasts immediately think of Abarth when they see 'Scorpion'! The Fiat 500 modified version is called Scorpione, featuring a large scorpion emblem on the hood. Its 1.4T engine delivers 180 horsepower, paired with a BMC intake kit and Record Monza exhaust—the sound at over 4000 RPM is absolutely thrilling. However, this car is quite rare in China. Back then, it cost nearly 400,000 RMB as a parallel import. Nowadays, you might occasionally spot one in the used car market. With its heavy steering and stiff chassis, it might be tough for girls to handle, but it's definitely on the radar for young guys who love car modifications.

SAIC MG registered the Scorpio trademark two years ago, and this year they actually built a real car—the Cyberster with electric scissor doors. The actual car features a metal scorpion print on the back of the seats, and you can even opt for a scorpion projection light that casts a scorpion pattern on the ground when you open the door at night. The battery comes in two versions: 64 kWh and 77 kWh, capable of adding 200 km of range with just 10 minutes of charging. The infotainment system uses the Qualcomm 8155 chip, and the gesture control is particularly responsive. However, it's said that the rear seating space is only big enough for a pet dog.

Actually, 'Scorpion' has two possible meanings in the automotive world. If young people are asking, they're probably referring to the MG Cyberster, which just debuted in the Forza Horizon game, featuring full carbon fiber body kits and optional fluorescent green brake calipers. For car enthusiasts born in the 1970s, 'Scorpion' likely points to Abarth's iconic scorpion performance badge, seen on hot hatches like the 595 Competizione. Interestingly, some have recently compared the Cyberster with the Alfa Romeo 4C - both featuring mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layouts, but the domestic model comes at half the price.
