The latest iteration of the beloved hatchback, the Mini Cooper Electric, impresses with its beautiful styling, zippy performance, and reasonable price. The Cooper Electric is BMW's first vehicle to be constructed in China, and it will be assembled on a new front-wheel-drive platform developed by BMW's joint venture with Great Wall, Spotlight Automotive.
The Mini Cooper Electric has a new design that returns "the iconic hatchback to its roots," and that's not just because it runs on batteries instead of gasoline. The vehicle has a more aggressive stance thanks to its wider track, shorter overhangs, longer wheelbase, and larger wheels, while the styling is less ornate and more austere than previously.
