Video Summary
Here is a summary of the YouTube video review of the Mini Aceman electric car:- The Mini Aceman is an all-electric model positioned between the Cooper hatchback and the Countryman SUV in terms of size.
- It is not yet confirmed for the U.S. market but expected to arrive.
- The new angular design may be divisive, with a minimalist interior aesthetic.
- The Aceman is 160 inches long, shorter than the Chevy Bolt.
- Two powertrain options will be available in Europe, with the more powerful option likely heading to the U.S.
- The preferred powertrain has a 218-horsepower electric motor with a 54.2-kWh battery, claiming a 250-mile range.
- The base Aceman E has 184 horsepower and a smaller 42.5-kWh battery.
- The interior is minimalist, with a circular touchscreen, gear shift, and drive mode selector controlled by toggle switches.
- A five-seat layout is included.
- The reviewer is not sure Mini needs another model between the Cooper and Countryman.
- Design choices include a big round touchscreen, and the wiper is visible.
- The reviewer emphasized the importance of round design for the Mini brand DNA and feels the angular design does not quite fit.
- In the past there was a focus on "the three-box” aesthetic for SUVs in the U.S.
- Plastic cladding and a high suspension make buyers more interested.
