Based on a 2022 prototype, the Cooper SE Convertible will be limited to 999 units, but it should preview an electric droptop coming with the next generation.
, and now the adorable EV droptop is entering production. Sadly, the Cooper SE Convertible is limited to just 999 units exclusively destined for the Europe market, with "specific and unique market compliance requirements" preventing its sale in the U.S., according to a Mini representative. Still, it shows that Mini is pondering an expansion of its EV lineup, and this electric convertible likely acts as a precursor to an electric droptop for the next generation.
The EV also wears unique badges that denote the car as "1 of 999" units being built. The cabin is equipped with heated leather seats and a nappa leather steering wheel, while neon-yellow accents highlight the convertible's electric powertrain. The powered softtop can raise and lower at up to nearly 19 mph.The powertrain is unchanged from the standard Cooper SE hatchback, with a 181-hp motor powering the front wheels.
