Sir Paul Smith is worried about "breaking the rules a little bit" by customizing his MINI Cooper? Perhaps he doesn't get out much.

I'm trying to figure out if the MINI is CGI or just Miquela, but I'm leaning to the whole thing being CGI. I think the Sir Paul Smith video is much better. The other videos for the ICE cars are good too.

I agree - I paused the video as it spun into the view of the Mini, and it looks CGI to me.
The rear side windows on Sir Paul Smith's Electric Collection SE are tinted, as are the rear side windows of the MINI in this collection of photos. Is that tinting for just the Electric Collection model? Is it just for the Electric Collection model in the UK or for all countries? IMO all of a car's windows should look the same.

I believe on the UK configurator there is an option called Sun Protection Glass that costs £250 which is basically factory window tinting.
Found it: here is the description on the configurator: "In strong sunlight, the optional sun protection glazing reduces heat build-up inside the car, making things more comfortable for the driver and passengers. The glass is visibly darker from the B-pillars backwards including the rear windscreen."
