In this carwow video, the team delves into the intricacies of the new Mini, showcasing its customizable tail lights and headlights that can transform its look. They dissect the differences between the electric and petrol versions, emphasizing the distinct platforms and design elements like the blanked out Grill on the electric model. The exterior of the Mini is praised for its cleaner and more appealing design across three trim levels, with a sporty variant boasting John Cooper Works badging and black detailing. Inside, the car features a prominent circular screen, recycled materials, and a sporty steering wheel, though some ergonomic flaws are noted, like the lack of a resting place for the driver's arm.
Moving on to practicality, the Mini offers various storage options, including a decent glove box, cup holders, and wireless charging, while the back seats are critiqued for their tight space and limited headroom. The boot space is found lacking, especially in the three-door version, with poorly designed elements further adding to the inconvenience. On a positive note, the Mini comes equipped with advanced features like a dash cam, interior cam, and virtual keys for easy sharing with family and friends. The car also boasts a summon feature and a reversing assistant, enhancing the overall driving experience.
The Mini's experience modes, including core, go-kart, green, vivid, timeless, and personal, offer a range of driving styles to suit different preferences. Additionally, the electric Mini comes in two versions with varying battery packs and horsepower, providing options for performance-minded drivers. Despite its drawbacks, such as a lack of front boot space and creaky brakes, the Mini impresses with its innovative features and customizable design elements, making it a compelling choice in the competitive automotive market.
