Mini’s first electric Convertible arrives as limited-run special edition


Mini’s first electric Convertible model has been revealed – though just 150 are destined for the UK.


As on the regular hardtop Mini Electric, the ‘E’ logo is located on the front and rear, while the car’s specific number showing its place within the 999-unit run will be applied on the door sill trims.


The Mini Electric Convertible also features model-specific 17-inch two-tone alloy wheels made from 100 per cent secondary aluminium. This material, which is combined with green electricity during construction, significantly reduces CO2 emissions compared with conventionally made wheels.
Inside, there’s a leather-clad cabin with a Nappa leather steering wheel. Interior surfaces are finished in Piano Black, contrasted by yellow accents throughout the cabin. Mini claims a total range of up to 124 miles for the Mini Electric Convertible – slightly less than the 145 miles you’d get from the hard top – yet boot space is unaffected and remains 160 litres.
