The Mini Countryman E further brings three distinct driving modes that can be chosen according to the driver’s needs and the traffic. Green Mode is described as an “extra-efficient" setting that reduces base electricity consumption. In this mode, the speedometer shows an efficiency meter that glows green and measures throttle inputs. This aids the driver in keeping the car at the desired speed to enhance efficiency and gain extra miles out of the car. Among the two other driving modes, the Core Mode provides a classic driving experience while the Go-Kart Mode offers increased steering wheel and throttle responsiveness.
