Used SEAT Mii for sale

What types of used SEAT Mii cars are there?

The SEAT Mii is a small city car that, despite its compact dimensions, has a good amount of interior space for four.

There are three- and five-door versions available with efficient petrol engines, and in the Mii’s later years on sale, an electric model was offered. It was called, quite simply, the Mii electric.

Popular SEAT Mii trims

When the electric variant came about, SEAT stopped offering trim levels. Instead, the Mii came with everything you’d ever need from a compact hatchback from the factory.

SEAT Mii history

The SEAT Mii was sold for a decade, spanning 2011 to 2021. At first, it was a petrol-powered car, but in 2020 it became an electric model.

> SEAT Mii electric (2020) - after the discontinuation of the petrol-powered model in 2019, an electric variant went on sale

What features does the SEAT Mii have?

Standard kit depends on which variant you go for, and some early petrol models can be quite scarce, so it’s worth finding higher-spec examples like Sport and FR Line, which offer more than S and SE trim levels.

For the electric model, you get heated front seats, air-con, cruise control, rear parking sensors and some safety kit like lane assist and traffic sign recognition.

It might be a budget EV, but it still works with SEAT’s app for remote climate control, charging schedules and vehicle data.

Is the SEAT Mii reliable?

Compared with most other cars – petrol or electric – on the roads, the SEAT Mii is an extremely simple model mechanically, which helps reliability.

Because it’s based on the Volkswagen up!, it also benefits from that all-important German attention to detail. Like its sibling, the Skoda Citigo, the SEAT Mii is typically cheaper to buy than the up!.

The electric model improves reliability even more, not because the petrol car is bad, but because electric motors involve fewer moving parts, so there’s less to go wrong.

How much does the SEAT Mii cost to run?

You can rest assured that any used SEAT Mii for sale will get you rock-bottom running costs, including earlier petrol models which use a 1.0-litre engine capable of a genuine 40-50mpg, depending on your driving habits.

The electric car has a 36.8kWh battery that’s good for around 160 miles of range. With an off-peak rate (7p/kWh), it could cost as little as £2.60 for a full charge.

Other costs, like tax, insurance and maintenance are also about as low as it gets.

Who is the SEAT Mii suitable for?

A used SEAT Mii for sale is an excellent choice for first-time drivers keeping an eye on their running costs – it looks stylish, and has enough space for a couple of mates.

Besides its Volkswagen up! and Skoda Citigo relatives, it also goes head-to-head with the Peugeot 108.
