From the vague description, which seems to throw in every design concept from every auto show of the last five years, this sounds more like a concept car than a production prototype. I'll believe it when I see it, especially as a next-generation all-electric car by 2011. Maybe I'll be plesently surprised, but I doubt it.

Not about the electric MINI, but about electric cars in general, I love the comment that we'll be able to charge "our" cars while we have our meals (3rd paragraph):
