BMW's electric Mini will be available in convertible format from April, but only 999 buyers in Europe will get the chance to buy it, writes Brian Byrne.
Of these, 150 RHD versions are heading for the UK market, and there's no indication if any of these will be available to Irish buyers.
The version comes three years after the Mini Electric hatchback was launched, and 20pc of all Minis sold in Europe now are electric, according to the company.
The power consumption of the Mini Electric Convertible is rated at 17.2kWh/100km, outputs 184hp and has a claimed range of 200km.
