The new electric Mini is built in China on a non-BMW platform, but you couldn’t tell if you didn’t know and it addresses most of its predecessor's problems.
The new electric Mini Cooper SE that’s just arriving in European showrooms looks a lot like the outgoing car and the revised combustion model. However, it’s not mechanically related to either of them, and it’s built in China through a joint venture that BMW has set up with Great Wall Motor called Spotlight Automotive Limited. Here's the good news: in another sign of how advanced China's auto industry is now, the updated electric Mini is objectively better than ever.
I also couldn’t find a way to turn off traction control to make it a bit more engaging through the corners and also get a better feel for its chassis—if there is a setting for it somewhere, it must be very well hidden. Smart Looks If you park the J01 Mini next to the new F66, you will notice that the electric car has cleaner, simpler shapes and looks more monolithic.
