MINI has revealed a special version of the Cooper SE which is based on the 3-door Mini it is named after Resolute Edition, to offer customers a combination of sporty design and total respect for the environment. The MINI Cooper SE Resolute Edition perfectly conveys the idea that eco-friendly driving pleasure is part of the brand’s philosophy and over 60 years of history.
As in the “normal” version, this special edition is also equipped with a 135 kW / 184 hp electric motor. This allows the MINI to accelerate from zero to 60 km / h in just 3.9 seconds. According to the British brand with a single charge, this model is able to cover up to 234 km on the WLTP cycle.
MINI Cooper SE Resolute Edition, the news is inside and outside
One of the novelties for this special model is the presence of special external speakers which, when driving at low speed, emit the sound of an engine so that pedestrians can hear the approaching vehicle.
The MINI Cooper SE Resolute Edition is proposed in the famous Rebel Green color, which was previously exclusive to the sporty Mini John Cooper Works. In this special edition, however, the designers have completely abandoned the chrome finish of the parts, replacing them with a specially developed bronze color which is called Resolute Bronze. This is found in the contours of the headlights, the radiator grille and rear lights, the side grooves on the front side panels and the door and trunk handles.
The unique exterior of the model is complemented by stripes on the hood, done in the original style. Just like the door sills, they have a pattern consisting of parallel lines with a shade of color that oscillates between a light and dark shade of gold.
The interior of the MINI Cooper SE Resolute Edition features Black Pearl / Light Checkered fabric / leatherette upholstery and anthracite roof lining, as well as black armrests. The sports steering wheel covered in Nappa leather is embellished with the MINI Resolute logo, characteristic of this version, on the lower race.
The model features 17-inch alloy wheels with Electric Collection Spoke design. Alternatively, light-alloy wheels of the same size are available in the Tentacle Spoke Black variant. MINI Cooper SE Resolution Edition will be available in dealerships from March.
