That Mini is 40K!! Has the world gone mad?

@npoleary 20 күн бұрын

EV’s are always slightly more expensive plus everything in the world has gone up in price which doesn’t help. For the non EV version, Mini Cooper starts from £23,150 which sounds much better. EV’s have their pros and cons and whether or not spending a few thousand more to jump to an EV is worth, that’s a whole topic in itself 😅 But you could get this exact car in a petrol though

Great review, thanks Nick. It will be interesting to see the pricing for the new Alpine A290 which I imagine will be similar to the Mini Electric SE...

We ordered the Mini SE in JCW trim. I was never a Mimi fan. But this one is just really good. Great entertainment system. Looks good. Great range. Cheap to run. Will be a great addition to my i4. We got almost 25% discount.

Maybe check out the CarGurus vid of the New MINI Cooper E. 17" wheels. The ECO based tyres that are fitted for range rather than handling. Traction / Grip. Journalist / vloggers really should check and set tyre pressures. Torque steer. Wheel spin. Yes new cars, green tyres and often overinflated. As media cars often are.

@mackeyuk 15 күн бұрын

Great video Nick, Can you switch off those synthetic acceleration sounds? They will likely become very annoying after about 1 day of ownership!

@npoleary 15 күн бұрын

Thank you, sadly didn't have time to check all the settings in the car for an individual switch. But if it was in Eco mode, yes it was completely silent in that drive mode Thank you for watching!

I tested one and really liked it, but £40,000 was just too much to stomach for what is essentially a disposable car. We ended up throwing practicality out of the window and buying a 1983 mini instead.

@georgewalker7061 20 күн бұрын

IMPORTANT is 2 battery sizes. So the WLTP does refer to if the Cooper E & 40.7 kWh, or a Cooper SE & 54.2 kWh. The lighter one with the smaller battery and the similar power to the First Generation 32.6 kWh does handle different. Maybe even more Go-kart like. But then these Chinese (GWM) built MINI,s do have rubbish tyres OEM which has the 218 ps SE spinning tyres. Fit All Seasons maybe for the UK. Then see REAL WORLD how far the Small Battery or Larger Battery car goes. They have different Max Charging speed / kWh as well.

@npoleary 20 күн бұрын

Yes, was just trying to oversimplify it for current Mini owners. DC charge speed is always around 20-40 mins in pretty much every EV. But thanks for sharing the stats! 😎

@georgewalker7061 20 күн бұрын

Forget to 80 with a 42 kWh battery if out of town you might well need more range than that . Max 75 kWh charging. SE is 95 kWh.

@@georgewalker7061 the spinning of the wheels is deliberate. The traction control in the old model was so good that there was almost no wheel spin, but some people found that less engaging. So they detuned the traction control slightly on the new model.

@georgewalker7061 19 күн бұрын

Nonsense. I have a level MINI SE 2023. The wheel spin is with the Rubbish Goodyear Eagle F1. Car 184 ps. It is the More powerful new MINI SE crap tyres that causes the wheel spin. The MINI E with good tyres is just like the current car. Were you told the tosh about engagement my MINI media department. Wheel spin, loss of traction is not a safety feature. Dynamic control and traction can be switched off.

The styling is sadly diluted, whilst still quite good looking. Very minimalistic, and the interior has that 'electric appliance' look, which doesn't cut it for me. I am hoping that build quality is allright. Also, how an electric car is 'John Cooper Works' beats me.... The starship sound btw is hideous.

ok we have sound we get it…. but how does it drive on a twisty road? How about a freeway how does the steering wheel feel? You seem very uninterested in this car tbh

@npoleary 17 күн бұрын

I said in the video that if this was out last year when I was shopping for my new car before I bought it, it would have been a contender. It drives just like my partner’s Mini which is very good. Very fun to drive with that classic planted feeling on the road as it sticks to the road like glue. You can feel it’s slightly heavier compared to a petrol car due to the battery at the bottom of an EV but it makes up for it in acceleration.
