The sole MINI-branded offering to launch this morning during BMW Group Malaysia’s showcase at the Malaysia Autoshow 2023 Press Day is the 2023 MINI Electric Resolute Edition. Just 90 units have been allocated for the Malaysian market, and here’s what each offers.
Based on the existing MINI Electric 3-door hatch that was just re-specced earlier this year, the new 2023MY Resolute Edition comes in three striking colour choices – Nanuq White, Enigmatic Black, and Rebel Green.
Additionally, this special also sees its headlight, radiator grille and rear light surrounds, side scuttles, and the handles of the doors and tailgate all finished in Resolute Bronze instead of chrome. There’s also Piano Black-finished surrounds for the windscreen’s lower edge, radiator grille’s inner frame, as well as both the brand logos and model inscriptions.
Capping off the exterior are exclusive bonnet stripes design featuring a pattern made up of parallel lines with a colour gradient that runs between a light and a dark shade of gold, along with the inscription “RESOLUTE”. Other exclusive features include the Waistline Finisher in black, and 17-inch Electric Collection Spoke wheels.
On board, this 2023MY Resolute Edition version of the electrified three-door hatch sees its cabin furnished with seats in the Cloth/Leatherette finish with Black Pearl Light Chequered upholstery made from recycled PET bottles, as well as an anthracite-coloured roof liner with black armrests and knee rolls. The lower spoke of the Nappa leather sports steering wheel also bears the edition-specific MINI Resolute logo.
Other touches include evenly curved lines in a light golden tone, as well as graphic design forming a pinstripe pattern on the interior surfaces and side sills.
Apart from these aesthetic tweaks, the 2023 MINI Electric Resolute Edition mechanically mirrors the base MINI Electric offering. It harnesses a single, front-mounted electric motor setup that drives the front wheels with 184 HP and 270 NM. It grants 0-100 KM/H in 7.3 seconds, as well as a claimed maximum travel range of 232 KM with each full charge of its 28.9 kWh battery.
Keen on this stylish and limited edition redux of the all-electric MINI hatch? Each commands RM211,164 and, as noted, just 90 units will be up for grabs, so you’d best hurry to your nearest authorised MINI dealer to snap one up.
