This model was bought by our reader tokwi, which he did not fail to brag about at the Electric Locomotive Forum. Nyland tested the previous year's model - it has small fog lights up front instead of vertical slits directing airflow out of the wheels - so when it comes to range the new version might even be slightly better.

Według WLTP Mini Electric must pass 234 piece., which in real terms corresponds to 200 kilometers in mixed mode. The car turned out to be extremely effective, at a speed of 90 km / h consumed 12,8 kWh / 100 km, which should be translated into 236 kilometers range in ideal conditions. Almost as much as indicated in the WLTP procedure.

At a speed of 120 km / h The Mini Cooper SE was also very economical, consuming just 17,7 kWh / 100 km, which meant 163 kilometers of range. Of course, the distance is not too great, because the Mini Electric has a microscopic battery, but the result puts the car among the best in the world.
