Noiseless, emissions-free but very powerful: MINI is saying its upcoming all-electric MINI Cooper SE is the future of muscle cars by doing some flamboyant: it towed a Boeing 777F freight aircraft.
A close to series prototype of MINI’s new model turned into an aircraft tug, lugging a 150-ton aircraft across an airfield.
The MINI Cooper SE will go into production at the British plant in Oxford by November 2019. It’s based off the MINI 3-door and for that, it retains its go-kart feeling, premium quality, and express design. Yet, because it uses an all-electric drivetrain, it will also achieve emissions-free driving.
A part of the BMW Group’s electrification strategy, the MINI Cooper SE will join the BMW i3 as the group’s first purely electrically-powered model within its portfolio.
