  • I went to Sweden to take a close look at the all-new 2025 MINI Cooper S. In this video, I go over the exterior and interior design details of the new Cooper S, and will also point out the differences from the previous generation and from the all-electric MINI Cooper.

    Would you buy the Cooper S or the Cooper Electric>?

    • @davcuts2897
      @davcuts2897 2 місяці тому +7

      I would go with the S. I don't want an electric car until the technology improves, and only one that can at least go 300 miles before it needs to be charged. 400 miles would even be better. I also don't want a car built in China like the new Cooper electric will be.

    I dont know but these newer gen Mini Coopers are slowly losing their Mojo. To me my favourite will always be the original Classic and closely followed by the R56. Not really happy with all these “Modern Interpretations.”

    Hold up for a second… The F66 DOES keep the clamshell… The Cooper S just loses the hood scoop, it’s the J01 electric car that’s completely different and lacks the clamshell hood… Likewise for the U25 Countryman and the upcoming J02 Aceman
