2024 MINI Cooper SE | First Look (4K)

[@steveemmerson4954]

My wife rest drive this exact model last week and signed up for one to be delivered by the end of the month. Huge leap forward to her current MINI Cooper SE. Looks best in Sport trim without a doubt

[@SytnerTV]

Amazing!

[@ElectrifiedLex]

I've got to say this one looks much better than the standard blue.

[@eric8188]

It reminds me of rebel green jcw

[@KidPrototype]

Now that’s a bad ass Kia soul 🎉

[@aristeufidelis108]

My dream of car. Good job. Congratulations. From Brazil.

[@grahamtruman1625]

First video we have seen…we ordered one pretty much blind. Looks pretty awesome and will be a great replacement for our ID3

[@NotJanine777]

I drove the new electric mini on Saturday - exactly the same as this one. It’s fab - great build quality, and fantastic fun. The internal electric car sounds really add to the experience and the Go-kart mode makes it feel very sporty. It’s fast, too - I was very impressed with it 👍

[@ZappBranning]

I wasn’t liking it when I first seen photos and videos . However I went to look at the cooper S petrol in the showroom and I really like it I liked it so much I ordered one 😊

[@chung729chung]

If they make it rwd, it’s gonna be the real go kart experience

[@y2j514]

Need a true JCW EV not an SE with JCW branding. I'm hoping for a dual motor JCW

[@thanasisbert564]

Lovely video and such a beautiful car. I would like to see something like this but with the F66, my choice, but in BRG cause the JCW trim was to high for my pocket. Well done Matt and thank you!

[@Future-Classic-Cars]

They've butchered the front end rear, it looks so aggressive! The original & 2001 model kept the nice cutesy face and chrome now just looks fuck!ng disgusting.

[@thanasisbert564]

​@@Future-Classic-Cars your opinion, don't agree, never ask for it. I also have an R53 so I know exactly what I like. Everyone has different taste and that's the beauty. You don't have to like it but your opinion has the same gravity as mine. None.

[@eric8188]

Great videography

[@SytnerTV]

Thank you!

[@eric8188]

@@SytnerTV And just to confirm, is this model in 'Legend Grey' paint?

[@sircl3m3ns33]

Looks gorgeous with the JCW trim! New and different, but still recognizable as a Mini. But would love to have a digital speedometer in some way

[@andrewhaveron3468]

You do on the head up display

[@stopthewar9993]

Gorgeous... Really?😅

[@Dequiss]

beautiful if you don't see it from behind

[@keithronson2624]

You are so right, Matt. Absolutely FANTASTIC! Mini has designed a new icon! A modernist delight! Exterior and interior, not least the interior are incredible! Thank You, Mini/ BMW. The new Mini is so desirable. Will sell like crazy! Thanks Matt. Well done to you for getting early access. Excellent content as always. Appreciated.

[@SytnerTV]

Thanks Keith, It’s a great looking car and I can’t wait to drive one, Thanks as always.

[@JaylenFast]

I’m no fan of the interior, the Spider-Man taillights, and I’ve always thought the led headlight ring is not very aggressive looking… the horizontal lines are a better direction though. Everything else is great!

[@linkbizkit6865]

The flatter and wider it gets, the more it will start resembling a porsche IMO.

[@kalak211]

When can we expect production cars to be out for reviews ? It has been months that the new Cooper was announced, and production started I'm being told.

[@SytnerTV]

We are hoping to get hold of one to drive around May.

[@michalisgeorgiou257]

Beautiful.... I think it is made in China...do you know? What is the starting price? And if you know what type battery fitted? lithium ion or lithium iron phosphate ? Thanks 👍

[@cookiemonstas]

I am not gonna buy it if it is made in China.

[@carlosm6036]

Is this the black or the grey does anybody know?

[@E-Cooper]

Many years of experience with Mini cars and as a Cooper SE 2023 owner, here's my comments and pros-cons list. I will have to start with negatives because fairly, they ruined the iconic-retro design of their own. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s the British market received numerous "special editions" of the Mini, which shifted the car from a mass-market item into a fashionable icon because of the Retro design understanding. And since the day Mini came out with new Countryman and the new Mini S/SE. Even the 2023 Mini cooper SE has the characteristic tounches everywhere exterior and interior! KEEP READİNG DOWN BELOW. !!! My objective thoughts and pros-cons list : Pros: 1- Bigger battery; had to be improved because even cars like peugeot 208e-500e had bigger batteries than the previous generation Mini Cooper SE. 2- The chassis is lengthened; A longer chassis can provide more spacious interior and increases performance. 3- Growth of mirrors; I think it's counter-design, considering the iconic circular mirrors and iconic design language. However, for someone who is not very tall, larger and rectangular mirrors can be considered functional as they can minimize blind spots. 4- More options on Customization the Mini. Also great to see John Cooper Works exterior body kit so smooth... 5- More horse power means better perfomance! Great to see! CONS; God! I'm furious and dissapointed the are too many of them! (OBJECTIVELY) 1- The black plastic artch trim has gone? Seriously? Those places especially if you live in cities will get tremendous amounts of small damages from other car doors and small physical contacts. Also where is the iconic design? 2- The taillights? What the hack you guys were thinking? The physicalş design had never changed since 1990's and you guys not only changed the shape, also ABOLISHED the Union jack Great Britan flag and instead put a triangular cheap material chinese looking lights. 3- İnterior: The new generation automobile industry finds it right to express interior design in the most extreme way possible. But if we look at the cars that have reached the timeless design language. No matter what and what, you will not come across such a disgraceful interior design. The reason? The reason is that everywhere inside is made of a single material and they are trying to look as if it is a brand like Tesla. No my friend, this huge screen does not reflect the 1959 Central Speedo screen. There may be people who like it, but if everything is being completely electronic on a single screen, including the air conditioning controls, the car will be more anti-userfriendly and you will understand how useless it is after using it for a week. Also I don't think anyone has to like this stupidly designed "futuristic" steering wheel. 4- Interior buttons used to make you feel like you're in a spaceship or an airplane. This swisting and one-screen-everything buttons are definitely less charismatic than previous Mini's. More cheap material plastics being used and carpets everywhere making it like its only one piece carpet. Love to see and feels of the better quality materials on my Cooper SE! I love them. I would be happier if I was able to see Mini brand not being gay and try to shine, wanting to be more popular, not following the stupid path started by other brands... if if if if.... Mini used to be Mini but not anymore it looks like. It doesn't feel like it. You also learn from your mistakes. No simplicity = No good.

[@DenstonHD]

No comment of the top speed? So we still stuck with 99MPH? If thats true, a shame!

[@andrewhaveron3468]

Where can you actually see it in the flesh. Went to Solihull, and it’s no longer there and no one could tell me where it was?!

[@SytnerTV]

Unfortunately this car was only on site for a few days, however we should be receiving our showroom vehicles very soon.

[@doctorandrade7960]

The Rear is like a R Clio

[@stefanoversace8318]

Das stimmt oder wie ein Japaner! Nächste Auto das man zerstört!

[@IskandarM_]

What color is this? Doesn’t look like black. More like dark emerald green or something. Looks really nice. The black JCW I’ve seen in photos doesn’t look so good. Too black.

[@thanasisbert564]

Legend Gray

[@SytnerTV]

This car is finished in Legend Grey.

[@daylee0855]

looks similar to a GP3??? what an insult to a gp3 owner lol

[@DeadlyDizzle-yn1vz]

6.7 secs to 60 isn’t much quicker than a gen 2 cooper S. I’d like to see 5.5 secs or better in 2024, especially as the range isn’t spectacular

[@MT-xy7fw]

Bmw underate their cars.... even the current mini se is faster than the current petrol cooper s 0-60

[@Scout-nj7xj]

Easy to read gauges displaying speed and RPM are much better placed directly in front of the driver. However, the new style steering wheel with slightly thicker rim and smaller diameter feels better than the previous F56 wheel.

[@KevoDeblackAce]

Wheel and door handle straight out of BMW m340i

[@kevinbarton98]

You get points on your license for using your phone but not to operate a complicated infotainment system….. go figure 🤔 it’s not just Mini doing this, all manufacturers are.

[@pachy444]

Or you could do more research before you post nonsense and find out all the usual controls you are likely to need on the move are also available on the steering wheel. And also available via voice command system which again is activated on the steering wheel.

[@thanasisbert564]

@@pachy444 thank god someone write it except me!!! Don't forget also, that R53 had all the info (except the revs) in the center big screen and for 21 years on daily use I had NEVER have an issue.
