The front section of the fully electric MINI Cooper is also characterized by the iconic MINI round headlights and the striking grille in the new model generation. Together they form the characteristic MINI face. The new octagonal front grill with its delicate contour defines the front section even more than its hexagonal predecessor. Instead of chrome, the new accent color Vibrant Silver sets highlights in the exterior and gives the new MINI Cooper even more expressiveness. The daytime running light elements of the LED headlights support the striking appearance with new radiance through unique light signatures. Horizontal light graphics are part of the Essential Trim. The daytime running light elements can optionally be switched in three predetermined light signatures and thus emphasize the respective vehicle character. In addition, all light modes start and end with a specially orchestrated welcome or goodbye animation. This interaction with the MINI Cooper increases the anticipation of the MINI even before you drive off.
The MINI Cooper's battery can be charged using alternating current with 11 kW. Fast charging with direct current is possible in the MINI Cooper E with 75 kW and in the Cooper SE with up to 95 kW. This means that the battery can be charged from 10 percent to 80 percent in just under 30 minutes at a corresponding fast charging station. Through active navigation via MINI Navigation, the high-voltage battery is brought to the ideal temperature for efficient charging depending on the weather conditions. This can significantly reduce the charging time, especially when the outside temperature is cold. For a transparent and simple charging process, the customer can optimize the charging of the vehicle battery using easy-to-understand setting options. For example, the start time for charging can be selected or a specific time window can be set for charging. A specific target value for the battery capacity can also be determined in advance. For a particularly pleasant start, charging can be completed by a set departure time and the vehicle interior can be air-conditioned to the desired temperature by then. The MINI app provides a convenient overview of the charging process, even if the customer is not near the vehicle. The current battery status can be read, a charging-optimized route plan can be created or the previous charging history including all costs and savings can be viewed.

In addition to the automatic parking functions of the Parking Assistant, the new optional Parking Assistant Plus makes the parking process even easier. Thanks to 12 ultrasonic sensors and four surround view cameras, the vehicle can identify possible parking spaces more clearly and can also initiate parking processes independently. In addition, a manual parking process can be transferred to the Parking Assistant Plus at any time. Explore Mode offers a uniquely comfortable solution for the vehicle segment. This means that the new MINI Cooper can be easily parked using a smartphone if there is not enough space on the side for entry. The innovative MINI Digital Key Plus option also uses the smartphone for a comfortable and personalized vehicle experience. The smartphone becomes a key and opens the vehicle automatically. As soon as the driver is less than three meters away, the welcome projection of the front and rear lights begins; when the distance is less than one and a half meters, the doors open. The digital key can be transferred to different users and replaces the passing on of the classic vehicle key for easier car sharing. In addition, other functions of the MINI app increase user safety. With the Remote 360 option, the surroundings of the parked vehicle can be viewed in the MINI app. An interior camera allows a look into the interior. The snapshot function of the interior camera also offers the opportunity to capture shared moments in photos and transfer them to your smartphone via WiFi Direct.
