I’ve got a 2018 mini cooper SE hybrid. It has a little switch to turn on. The switch has its light on when the car is turned off and it’s light off when the car is turned on. It also has a third state after you get out of the car where it’s not really on or off but you can’t charge it or drive it until you turn it completely on or off. And you can’t turn it on if you don’t have it in neutral. And it doesn’t really tell you if the parking break is on except a little light on the center console which you never see, so the car may be on but you won’t be able to drive it because the parking brake is on. Sometimes it wont let you unplug it until you lock it and unlock it again for some reason.
And don’t even get me started on the CarPlay or the driver profiles or the park assist menu that overstays its welcome by about 3 minutes.
Fuck no. I handled it like a man and trial and errored it for weeks. I am ashamed to say that I had to ask the dealer for assistance to drive it off the lot because I was blocking people and they were getting pissed.
