Video Summary

Here is the requested summary of the video:
- There are three versions of the car available in Australia.
- The entry-level Pro+ model starts at sub $55,000, and has 19-inch alloy wheels, LED headlights, a panoramic glass roof, a 12.8-inch infotainment screen, Wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, a power tailgate, and Smart Pilot Assist.
- A premium version is available, adding leather upholstery, Beats sound system, a heat pump, auto parking assist, and a 10-inch heads-up display. It also gets better charging specs.
- The top-of-the-range Brabus model is an all-wheel-drive powerhouse. It has a unique exterior design, a Brabus drive mode, sports seats, and microfiber suede upholstery.
- Pricing is considered fairly affordable.
- Alternatives include the Mini Countryman E and the Zeekr X.
- The model has a unique, attractive crossover design with good interior space, although cargo space is not very large.
- The 19-inch alloy wheels, combined with a strange squared-off design, are reminiscent of older Mini models.
- The interior features a driver info screen, but the main media screen is busy and confusing to operate.
- There are USB-C ports, and a cool, ventilated center console bin,
- Has an electric tailgate.
- The base model gets 7.4kW AC, while higher trims get 22kW AC, with 150kW DC charging across all trims.
- At the time of the review, service intervals were every 12 months or 20,000 km, with expensive capped-price servicing available. Roadside assistance is included for five years.
- It is a fun-to-drive, zippy EV crossover, but the reviewer is bothered by the safety systems.
