Photos: All-electric Mini E
At the 2008 LA Auto Show, Mini unveiled an all electric version of its Mini Cooper. Dubbed the Mini E, this vehicle sacrifices its rear seats to make room for a huge array of lithium ion batteries, giving the tiny EV a range of 156 miles.
Space is about all that the Mini E has sacrificed, as Mini claims that power and handling are on par with the gasoline and diesel variants of the Cooper.
Only 500 examples of the Mini E will be available in the US through a leasing program, focusing on the California, New Jersey, and New York markets.

How MINI can a MINI get?
Why not call it the "e MINI roadster"?
AT least it hasn't got the "Ugly Chimp butt" of the new Honda Sport revealed in LA also.
