MINI Cooper Electric
Available in one trim level exclusively, the Cooper SE is MINI’s first and only pure electric vehicle. It generates 181 horsepower from a single motor driving the front wheels. Meanwhile, the 32.6kWh high-voltage battery makes it possible to travel up to 183 km on a full charge. The Cooper SE is therefore not a long-range vehicle. With a base price under $40,000, it obviously qualifies for all applicable EV rebates.
