MINI Electric

Available all-electric MINI models include the MINI Electric Hardtop 2 Door and the MINI Countryman SE ALL4.

All-electric MINIs embody MINI’s performance legacy and engineering expertise. They are fun to drive, due to instant torque and linear acceleration of the electric motor. MINI EVs provide maximum torque from near standstill providing near-instant acceleration, MINIs are famous for their go-kart like handling. This fun-to-drive performance is maintained in MINI EVs with an even lower center of gravity – resulting in great driving dynamics, precise steering, and agile handling.

According to the US Department of Energy (https://www.energy.gov/), all-electric vehicles produce no carbon dioxide emissions when driving and can significantly reduce the emissions that contribute to climate change and air pollution – which contributes to the improvement of public health and the reduction of ecological damage.

There are a number of ways to charge your all-electric MINI, whether at home or on the road. The compact and portable Level 1 Flexible Fast Charger comes standard with your MINI and is ideal for at home charging with any standard 120V power outlet. For an even faster charge at home, there is the Level 2 Optimized Home Wallbox Charger which can fully charge your EV in about 4 hours, so you never leave without a full charge. And for charging on the go, there are plenty of Level 3 DC Fast public charging outlets located conveniently throughout the country. These can charge up to 80% in as little as 36 minutes and you can have locations automatically recommended to you based off your route and battery life via the MINI app.

The cost to charge an EV depends on the cost of electricity per kWh. You can calculate the costs using the EV charging/cost savings under calculator on this page.

Public charging stations can generally be accessed by opening an account with a charging provider, similar to opening one for a toll tag. Some stations also permit credit card access. Generally, after opening an account (usually online or in-app), the corresponding app will provide instructions for how to find, access, and if needed pay for charging sessions. What is brake energy regeneration? Regenerative braking technology allows electric vehicles to recoup part of their energy during deceleration and braking storing it by recharging the battery.

The estimated range of the 2024 Electric Hardtop 2 Door is 114 miles. The estimated range of the 2025 MINI Countryman SE ALL4 is 212 miles. 

Estimated ranges attainable when battery fully charged & under ideal driving conditions. Actual range will vary depending on multiple factors, including but not limited to: vehicle model, tire & wheel selections, driving style, accessories used, traffic conditions, outside temperatures, & charging frequency. Ranges of recently released, new model year electric vehicles may not yet be fully certified by EPA. Estimated EV range is based on preliminary BMW AG tests based on EPA's testing procedure standards. See www.fueleconomy.gov. EPA publishes a blended range average of all wheel size/tire combinations which may differ from the range presented here.

MINI, which is part of The BMW Group, responsibly sources raw materials from leading suppliers for battery cell production and has been manufacturing batteries for electric vehicles since 2013. MINI is committed to relentless research and development in the field of battery technology. The current generation of batteries in MINI’s all-electric vehicles reflects this expertise and experience. The ambient temperature, number of cycles, age of the battery (regardless of use), and other factors influence battery life. For your peace of mind, MINI offers a comprehensive battery warranty that also covers against excessive battery capacity loss (if net battery capacity is less than 70% of its original nominal value) – whichever should occur first.

MINI USA, a division of BMW of North America, LLC warrants the high-voltage lithium-ion battery assembly against defects in materials or workmanship for a period of 8 years / 100,000 miles for EVs and 8 years/80,000 miles for PHEVs, whichever occurs first. Due to its inherent technical design, the high-voltage lithium-ion battery’s capacity will decrease over time and with use. If an authorized MINI dealer's capacity check concludes that the net battery capacity is less than 70 percent of its original nominal value when it was new, this level of capacity loss is considered excessive. During the High-Voltage Lithium-Ion Battery Capacity Coverage period, MINI USA will cover the necessary component repair or replacement to correct this excessive capacity loss when performed by an authorized MINI dealer.

Just as with any other car, weather and other environmental conditions can affect a MINI EV. Extreme cold and hot temperatures may impact the driving range. Battery life is generally unaffected by typical weather conditions. Impacts on range can be minimized by using the pre-conditioning function which brings the car and battery to operating temperatures before driving off using power from the grid when plugged in.

The 2024 MINI Cooper SE is eligible for many state and local incentives (including rebates, tax credits, and grants). For specific details on how these credits apply to an individual situation in your state or locality, please consult with a knowledgeable tax advisor. To see additional State and Local incentives available for the 2024 MINI Cooper SE please visit the fueleconomy.gov website. You may also save fuel costs. With fewer moving parts and fluids to repair and replace, all-electric MINIs also have lower lifetime maintenance costs. For example, all-electric vehicles do not require oil changes.

State incentive programs for electric vehicles vary in their scope and applicability. While tax incentives are most frequently mentioned, HOV access, toll reduction, and sales tax exemptions are also offered. Please consult your knowledgeable financial planner or tax specialist to determine how the state and federal incentives may apply to you. The US Dept of Energy also maintains an up to date list which can be found here: https://afdc.energy.gov/laws/search
