To Drive, The 2022 MINI Cooper SE is *Almost* Perfect (For Trips Less Than 100 Miles)

Earlier this month, we told you our initial thoughts looking around the MINI Cooper S.E. Resolute Edition, a car that on paper looks like a compliance vehicle, lacks much of the space and features of most modern EVs, and has a pretty large price tag for what it offers.
But once you get behind the wheel, as we quickly discovered, it's a driver's car first and foremost, encouraging you to push it to its limits... Which as it happens, is about 100 miles per charge.
On paper, we shouldn't like this car any more than we did the Mazda MX-30 EV.
In the real world? It's everything we want in a sporty hot hatch (except that range).
