Video Summary
Here is the requested summary of the YouTube video review:- It is the Mini Countryman SE All4, which is a long title for a small-to-mid-size SUV.
- The car retains its heritage, but looks very different compared to older models.
- The 20-inch wheels appear too small.
- The front grille is filled in because there’s no radiator. However, there are active grille vents at the bottom.
- There’s a little bump on the tailgate hiding the radar.
- The headlight clusters look good, but the older circular design was preferable.
- The driving experience was fun and sporty.
- The trunk has a 460-liter capacity, increasing to 1450 liters with the seats down.
- The car has a 40/20/40 split rear seat. Each rear seat is individually adjustable.
- The sub-floor boot has very little space, only enough for the charging equipment.
- There is no front trunk or frunk.
- Walk-away locking and walk-up unlocking are included and loved.
- Two of four USB ports are in the back along with a 12-volt socket.
- No heated rear seats are present.
- 230 kW and 494 Newton meters of torque come from dual synchronous electric motors with power going to all four wheels.
- Three-phase charging gives impressive 22-kW rates.
- Rapid DC charging maxes out at 130 kW, slower than some competitors.
- In the front, the passenger has a six-way electrically-adjustable seat, but the driver gets an eight-way adjustable seat with lumbar support.
- The cabin overall has high-quality materials and touch surfaces, despite some hard plastics.
