Delivered to a customer from Colombia, the milestone vehicle is a Cooper SE belonging to someone who is on their second purchase from the British automaker. It\u2019s the 254<sup>th<\/sup> electric hatchback sold by the company in Colombia where the EV was launched at the end of last year.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/11\/08\/2023-mini-cooper-se-nanuq-white\/\">Cooper SE<\/a> is already the most popular model in Colombia, followed by the Countryman crossover and the regular Cooper in three- and five-door hatchback body styles. The convertible and spicy John Cooper Works models are also sold locally. MINI managed to deliver 14.2% more cars in 2021 compared to the year before, despite challenging times in the automotive industry what with supply bottlenecks and other constraints.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-405031\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"2021 mini cooper se Ev test Drive 20 830x553\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of 2021 mini cooper se Ev test Drive 20 830x553\"\/><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-medium wp-image-405031\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=%22http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg%22%20viewBox=%220%200%20830%20553%22%3E%3C\/svg%3E\" data-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20-830x553.jpg\" alt=\"2021 mini cooper se Ev test Drive 20 830x553\" width=\"830\" height=\"553\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20-830x553.jpg 830w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.bmwblog.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/2021_mini_cooper_se_Ev_test_Drive_20.jpg 1920w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 830px) 100vw, 830px\" title=\"image of 2021 mini cooper se Ev test Drive 20 830x553\"\/><\/p>\n<p>2022 marks the 20<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary of MINI\u2019s presence in Latin America. The Oxford-based automaker is about to transition to a next generation of vehicles, some of which will be built in China. Take for example the Cooper SE pictured here, which will be assembled by Great Wall Motors per a tie-up with MINI\u2019s parent company BMW. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/11\/11\/mini-aceman-215-hp-250-mile-range-report\/\">Aceman small electric crossover<\/a> will also be manufactured in the world\u2019s most populous country.<\/p>\n<p>There will be one final generation of MINIs with combustion engines, prior to the early 2030s when the company has pledged to sell only electric vehicles. Before that happens, gasoline-fueled performance cars with the JCW badge are in the pipeline. In addition, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/10\/13\/next-generation-mini-convertible-built-oxford-uk\/\">next-gen convertible<\/a> due around 2025 has been confirmed and will be built at home in Oxford rather than in The Netherlands where VDL Nedcar assembles the current model.<\/p>\n<p>A recent report indicates MINI could develop a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bmwblog.com\/2022\/11\/14\/mini-considering-compact-hatchback-rival-volkswagen-golf\/\">compact hatchback to rival the Volkswagen Golf<\/a>, but a decision has yet to be made. If green-lighted, it\u2019ll like ride on the FAAR platform (essentially an updated UKL) and offer a mix of traditional powertrains.<\/p>\n<p>Source: MINI Brazil<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ADVERTISEMENT MINI is in a festive mood as the BMW Group brand is celebrating an important milestone after selling 125,000 cars in Latin America.
