For drivers who want their retro British hatchback with modern-day electric driving range, the 2020 Mini Cooper S E is a car worth waiting for. The EV shares its shape with the iconic two-door Mini Cooper Hardtop and should be just as spunky. Look for the Cooper S E to go on sale in early 2020.
The 2020 Mini Cooper is a fun and funky small hatchback that trades practicality and value for character and quality.
Pros Playful like a puppy German-backed quality British character Loads of customizable options
Cons Limited interior space Gets expensive fast Overly kitschy to many Cramped cargo space
The 2021 Mustang Mach-E is Ford's first all-electric crossover, and it was designed and named after the company's iconic pony car. The Mach-E also pays homage to the "Mach 1" moniker that has been used on high-performance Mustangs of old. Ford said it went with the name because it needed the electrified crossover to be as desirable as a Tesla to usher in its new era of electric vehicles.When the 2021 Mustang Mach-E finally goes on sale, we'd choose the Premium model. It's expected to provide 300 miles of driving range when paired with the extended-range battery and rear-wheel drive, but we'd still choose the all-wheel-drive version, which knocks its estimated range down to 270 miles. Compared with the base model, the Mach-E Premium has more powerful fast-charging capability, 19-inch wheels, a Band & Olufsen sound system, a panoramic sunroof, and a power liftgate.
The 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E electric crossover needs to not only live up to its historic name, but it also needs to point Ford’s future direction.
PROS All-electric powertrain Captivating looks Up to 300 miles of range Thrilling performance promises A new Mustang for a new generation
CONS Will it live up to its name? How small is the rear seat? How will that big tablet work? Small-ish range on base versions
