Mini Electrifies owners

Mini has just completed a six month trial with consumers in the Oxford area – and, boy, they are a happy bunch.

We were allowed to speak privately to the drivers of each car (no PR minders to be seen anywhere) and their only regret is that they have to give the cars back at all.

We wanted to know if the users would be too scared of running out of electricity to drive the Mini close to its maximum safe range of 100 miles.
