MINI of Anchorage invites you to enjoy a thrilling and efficient electric driving experience in the MINI Cooper SE. This innovative all-electric vehicle features an advanced one-pedal driving mode that maximizes regenerative braking efficiency, allowing you to drive with just one pedal for most situations.
How One-Pedal Driving Works
When the one-pedal driving mode is engaged in the MINI Cooper SE, lifting your foot off the accelerator pedal causes the electric motor to act as a generator, converting kinetic energy into electricity to recharge the battery. This regenerative braking effect also slows the car down, often eliminating the need to use the brake pedal.
One-pedal driving makes navigating stop-and-go traffic along the Seward Highway or A-1 a breeze. The car automatically slows as you ease off the accelerator, then maintains a creeping speed until you press the pedal again to move forward. It's an intuitive and engaging way to pilot your electric MINI through the streets of Anchorage.
Efficiency Gains from Regenerative Braking
The MINI Cooper SE's regenerative braking system captures energy that would otherwise be lost during deceleration and braking, storing it in the battery for later use. This helps extend the vehicle's driving range, allowing you to confidently cruise from Town Square Park to the Port of Anchorage and beyond without worrying about running out of charge.
By maximizing the efficiency of the regenerative braking system, the one-pedal driving mode ensures you get the most out of every electron stored in the MINI Cooper SE's battery pack. It's an intelligent feature that enhances both the performance and practicality of this cutting-edge electric vehicle.
