The all-electric MINI Cooper SE.

Munich. With the idea of a vehicle that offers
passengers as much space as possible in the interior with compact
dimensions, MINI revolutionised individual mobility 64 years ago.
Since then, the brand has focused on maximum driving pleasure with a
minimum footprint. Characterised by a modern, digital and unmistakable
design, the new MINI Cooper SE combines innovative technology with the
traditional MINI DNA. In the fifth model generation of the MINI
three-door, this includes a new world of digital experiences in the
interior as well as modern assistance systems for the mobility of the future.

 “The MINI Cooper SE embodies the innovative power of MINI. With
its dynamic design, sustainable performance and go-kart feel, it sets
new standards in electric mobility,” says Stefanie Wurst, Head of
the MINI Brand.

All-electric driving fun with an enhanced go-kart
feeling.
With 160 kW/218 hp and a maximum torque of 330
Nm, the MINI Cooper SE sprints from 0 to 100 km/h in 6.7 seconds. The
high-voltage battery with 54.2 kWh energy content placed in the
vehicle floor enables a range of 402 kilometres determined in the WLTP
test cycle. The excellent driving dynamics are based on the slightly
increased track width as well as a wider wheelbase.

With fast charging with direct current of up to 95 kW, just 30
minutes are enough to charge the battery from 10 percent to 80
percent. The customer can optimise the charging process at any time
with easy-to-understand settings and conveniently view them via the
MINI App.

Even more expressiveness thanks to MINI LED headlights with
Signature Modes.
Together with the newly designed
octagonal front grille, the iconic round headlights define the
striking face of the all-electric MINI Cooper SE. LED headlights with
optional light signatures emphasise the vehicle’s character and
enhance its individual expression. The differently designed light
modes start and end with a specially orchestrated welcome or goodbye animation.

The compact silhouette is characterised by typical MINI proportions.
These include short overhangs, a short bonnet and a contrasting long
wheelbase. This exciting appearance makes the MINI Cooper SE stand out
in the urban jungle with classic design features and a contemporary
aesthetic. The new, modern MINI design also characterises the clear
surfaces of the rear section with flush tail lights.

Reduced to the essentials, the new MINI Cooper SE gains not only a
strong presence and increased dynamics, but also additional
efficiency. Thanks to the further optimised aerodynamic properties,
the vehicle achieves a cW value of 0.28.

Emotional design in the interior for an immersive user
experience.
The new minimalist interior in the MINI
Cooper SE impresses with digital, immersive and warm characteristics.
Fewer components, which are cleverly designed and implemented to a
high standard, successfully transport the famous design of the classic
Mini into the present. The purist interior of the new MINI is
structured by the round OLED display, the characteristic toggle switch
bar and the newly designed steering wheel. The curved dashboard is
made of textile surfaces for the first time and characterises the
feel-good atmosphere of the new MINI Cooper SE.

In the cockpit, the central, high-resolution OLED display sets a new
standard. The new central instrument is both an experience and a
comfort centre, and in the new MINI Cooper SE it moves closer to the
driver for convenient operation.

Numerous functions such as navigation, telephony and entertainment
can be operated with the brand’s first fully-fledged voice assistant.
The voice-controlled interaction takes place on the round OLED display
in the form of an animation of graphic elements, typography and an avatar.

MINI Experience Modes and four newly designed trims offer a
wide range of customisation options.
The MINI
Experience Modes give the interior even more expressiveness through
new solutions and take individualisation in the MINI Cooper SE to a
new level. Each mode has specially designed backgrounds that look
lively and high-quality with the greatest possible freedom from
distraction. The MINI Projector can be used to immerse the dashboard
in atmospheric colour worlds and patterns that are matched to the
Experience Mode selected. The unique, immersive experience of
projection, ambient lighting and MINI Interaction Unit extends into
the door panels.

New driver assistance systems make everyday driving
easier.
With 12 ultrasonic sensors and four surround
cameras, the MINI Parking Assistant Plus simplifies parking and can
identify possible parking spaces more clearly. TheExplore Mode also
offers a unique solution for the vehicle segment. This allows the new
MINI Cooper SE to be easily controlled and parked from the outside
using a smartphone if the space at the side is too small for entry.

Once parked, the Remote 360 option allows the surroundings of the
parked vehicle to be viewed via the MINI App, thus increasing safety.
Shared moments can be captured by the snapshot function of the
interior camera and transferred to the smartphone via WiFi Direct. The
innovative MINI Digital Key Plus option also turns the smartphone into
a digital key and facilitates car sharing. Numerous individual vehicle
settings can be stored in this way, each ensuring a personalised
vehicle experience.
