In the MINI Cooper SE electric model, one can get an accelerator ring and the accelerator ring system installed along with a hand control used for the brake and a removable pedal cover. The closed accelerator ring for electrically driven vehicles is installed inside the circle of the steering wheel, allowing convenient manual operation of the throttle function by means of hand pressure. MINI added that this attachment facilitates safe operation, ensuring maximum control of the vehicle as the user's both hands will always be on the steering wheel. The accelerator ring can also be deactivated by means of a switch and can be removed if necessary as it is wireless.

A pedal cover for the original accelerator and brake pedals protects the driver from accidental operation, thereby enhancing safety. The cover can be easily removed at any time for multiple uses of the MINI Cooper SE, added the brand.
