MINI Cooper 2023– car dimensions: 3858 mm long, 1756 mm wide and 1460 mm high. Unladen weight is 1,615 kg. Boot space with the seats up is 210 litres.
The cabin centres on a 24 cm circular OLED touchscreen that handles navigation, media and settings. Wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, along with a two-zone automatic climate system. Dynamic cruise control, front and rear parking sensors with parking assistant, a reversing camera, automatic emergency braking with forward collision warning, blind-spot warning and lane-keep assist all come as standard equipment across the range.
Boot space is 210 litres with the rear seats up and expands to 800 litres when they are folded. The split-fold rear bench helps with longer items, though overall capacity stays modest for a four-seater hatch.
Official figures list a maximum payload of 450 kg. Towing is not offered on this model.
The cabin feels open and modern with a large round OLED central display, knitted textile on the dash and doors, ambient lighting and dual-zone climate control. Sport seats use Vescin material with good side support and longer cushions. Higher packs or trims add heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, power adjustment with memory, driver massage via the active seat, and an optional panoramic glass roof that brightens the space. Rear seats fold 60/40 and space is tight but practical for short trips.
All-electric with zero tailpipe emissions and WLTP range up to around 400 km on SE.
Condition Based Service system monitors needs based on driving style and conditions.
Euro NCAP 5-star rating from 2025 tests with strong adult and child scores.
Standard kit includes multiple airbags, DSC stability control, automatic emergency braking and lane support.
High-voltage battery covered for 8 years or up to 160000 km.
This is a pure electric hatch with no petrol or diesel option. Energy use sits near 14 kWh per 100 km and the larger battery version delivers useful real-world range for daily driving and occasional longer trips. AC charging is supported at 11 kW and DC fast charging tops out near 95 kW for a 10-80 percent top-up in about half an hour.
Servicing follows the Condition Based Service approach rather than fixed mileage alone. The car tracks usage and alerts when oil-equivalent checks, filters or brake fluid are due. Typical intervals land around every two years. Prepaid service packages are offered in many markets to cover routine work.
Safety is a clear strength. The 2023-present generation earned a full five stars from Euro NCAP in 2025, scoring highly for adult and child occupant protection plus solid marks for vulnerable road users and assistance systems. Standard equipment covers six airbags, stability and brake controls, forward collision warning with braking, lane departure support and tyre pressure monitoring. Higher packs add more advanced parking and driving aids.
Keeping the car simple means monitoring the 12 V battery state of charge during long storage and using the heat pump efficiently for cabin comfort. The high-voltage battery carries a long warranty and the overall package suits urban and short-highway use with low running costs once charged at home.
