The new Mini Cooper SE is fitted as standard with a model-specific instrument cluster consisting of a 5.5-inch color screen in black panel design behind the steering wheel, the automaker said. Other digital displays in the instrument cluster provide information on the charge level of the high-voltage battery, the currently selected Mini Driving Mode, the status of the driver assistance systems and Check Control messages.
