    Same underpinnings as the MINI Countryman PHEV. Very good in traffic around town as electric at low speed is very smooth and progressive. Short all-electric journeys are very economical but when battery is exhausted, on long journeys the weight of motors and battery works against economy. Very poor availability of public charging points & confusing variety of suppliers not helpful. Car is comfortable & practical, quite quick if you want it to be. Infotainment system is not the best; wife's new Golf is much better!
