Good question. Not sure but I can ask Read more

Fair point Read more

It’s a hybrid. You can’t just take the EV part on its own and say it’s no good. It’s how everything works together that makes the 330e a good car.  Read more

The EPA hasn’t tested this gen yet but the 2018 330e got 71mpg and BMW is estimating a 10-15% increase based on the European test cycle. So basically double that of the 330i Read more

You are only focusing in the EV part of the car, which is fully missing the point. Read more

Not seeing it now. I’ll reach out to Mini and see if they can confirm. Either way it’s a car very worth considering  Read more

Yes it is Read more

Yes but there is no legit competition in the “Hot Wagon” category so we’ll just lump it in with the Hatches ;) Read more

I thought I saw it as an option in the press guide. Let me check Read more

I don’t think so but we’ll have to wait for the launch to find out. One can only hope Read more
