Win the new electrifying Mini Cooper SE + £2k with BOTB!

When the first generation Mini Electric was launched there was one huge criticism – it had awful range, barely getting above 100 miles in winter. But now the second generation is here and it doesn’t just bring a new name…

The Mini Cooper SE as it’s now called, has had a serious upgrade, now packing in a 54kWh battery meaning it has a WLTP quoted range of 250 miles – that’s proper big journey mileage even in winter. It can now charge at 95kW, so you can top up and extra 200 miles in less time than it takes to grab a coffee and a comfort break at a services.

Power is up too, now with 215bhp and 330Nm of torque, so the 0-62mph dash takes just 6.7 seconds.

Visually it’s still very much a Mini, but now brought right up to date with the familiar round headlights and large framed grille, floating roofline and great proportions. The rear sees the biggest change with new triangular rear lights, while inside there’s a new minimalist design featuring a huge ultra-slim 9.4 inch round screen in the centre of the dash which can be configured to show modern graphics or even a replica of the original 60’s mini speedo!

This is the Level 2 Exclusive model, so on top of the already great specification you also get Adaptive LED Headlights, Heated seats, Harman/Kardon Surround Sound audio, Head-up Display, Panoramic glass roof and more.
