While its price point is a significant advantage, especially compared to competitors like the Tesla Model 3, the review highlights substantial drawbacks. The primary concerns are its limited driving range, estimated at 110 miles, and a driving character that falls short of the traditional MINI's verve. Despite sharing mechanical components with the BMW i3s, the Cooper SE's modified platform and smaller battery pack result in a less engaging driving experience, with numb steering and a firm, unrefined ride.

An optional Performance Battery Plus offers 563 horsepower and a larger 93.4 kWh pack. Performance figures are competitive, with 0-60 mph in 3.8 seconds, though range estimates are conservative, with the reviewer expecting under 280 miles, significantly less than the Tesla Model S Long Range. The review highlights that the "base" price is misleading, as essential options like a panoramic roof and mobile charger are mandatory at launch, pushing the effective starting price higher.
