The FIRST fully electric MINI entering production in 2019!

MINI Pelicans! Did you hear the news? BMW revealed information about its fully electric MINI that will be joining the the line-up. The all-electric model will be a “variant of the brand’s core 3 door model." Assuming, by 3-door they mean the F56 model, but will be accompanied by some sort of alphabet letters like the Countryman SE/PHEV.

There were experimental fleets of electric Minis in 2009 - pictured below - but their back seat was replaced by a huge battery.

What are your thoughts?

Very very excited! Love this car, glad to see it getting an electric upgrade. Especially with the change in laws across the world with a move toward electrification - see France and the UK - this can only be good news for the brand.
