Greetings Mini-lovers,
I just test drove a Mini SE today, it was a lot of fun. Because I do a lot of city driving, a small electric makes a lot of sense. However, I live in Boston and the weather can get frightful. I would need to put on a set of all-season or full-winter tires for the winter months. The Mini Sales guy told me that battery performance would suffer but he could not say by how much. The manager of the dealer told me the same thing--it seems the factory has not released any information about this.
Do any of you have anything to share on this topic? I am afraid to buy this car without some data about tire type/battery performance.
Thank you!
