Today, we're diving into the new Mini Cooper Electric, a fresh take on the classic Mini design. This model lets you customize elements like the tail lights and headlights to match your style. I'll guide you through the exterior and interior features, then take it for a test drive to see how fast it goes from 0 to 60 MPH.
The Mini Cooper is available as both an electric and a petrol model. While they look similar, they have different platforms: the electric version is built on a new platform, while the petrol one uses an updated version of the old design. The electric Mini stands out with a blanked-out grille and is only available in a three-door format, unlike the petrol version, which also comes as a five-door.
This generation Mini looks much cleaner compared to its predecessors, with various trim options: Classic, Exclusive, and Sport, each offering unique design elements. The electric model also has flush door handles for better efficiency. The interior features a big circular screen with vivid colors, although it can be a bit slow to respond.
I'll also discuss its practicality, including storage options and how it feels to drive. So, stay tuned for a full review of the new Mini Cooper Electric, its pros and cons, and a comparison with other cars in the same category.
