Do you want the cheapest electric car in Mzansi? Well, here it is.
The new MINI Cooper SE is based on the MINI 3 door with an internal combustion engine.
Its highly expressive design is complemented by the accent colour Energetic Yellow that points to the electrifying character of the MINI Cooper SE.
These accents can be found in several places, including the closed radiator grille, mirror caps, tailgate and side scuttles.

Electric cars deliver power instantly and the 135kW, 270Nm electric motor is located deep in the underbody.
The MINI Cooper SE accelerates from 0 to 60 km/h in 3.9 seconds and from a standstill to 100 km/h in 7.3 seconds.
The all-electric MINI drivetrain consists of a fewer working parts than an internal combustion engine and, fewer parts that need to be repaired or replaced over time.
As with the BMW Group’s BMW i models, the MINI Cooper SE comes standard with an eight-year/100 000km battery warranty.
Charging at all BMW and MINI-branded public chargers will be free of charge.
It will require 35 minutes for a charge from 0-80% using a 50kW fast charger, and two-and-a-half hours using the 11kW charger.
