THE BENEFITS ARE FAR REACHING.

By switching to an all-electric MINI, you enjoy considerable savings in fuel costs. If you can charge at home, the cost of charging per km is a fraction of what the cost would be with petrol. You could also be exempt from road taxes and congestion charges.

MINI Wallbox AC:“This is dependent on 3 phase installation”

Please note, actual range depends on a variety of factors, especially: optional equipment as well as wheel and tyre sizes selected, personal driving behaviour, route selected, weather conditions, usage of heating/cooling and preconditioning. Depending on external factors, such as the mains voltage or the outside temperature, the real charging times might deviate from the charging times shown in this tool. The charging times have been measured on the basis of an outside temperature of 25°C.

THINGS WE'RE OFTEN ASKED.

It's possible to charge your all-electric MINI vehicle from the grid just like any other appliance or device using the standard charging cable supplied, which can plug into any conventional wall socket. This method of charging can be very slow, however, and a dedicated home EV charger is a much better, safer and faster option. MINI offers additional charging options such as an original MINI Wallbox that gives you a convenient, faster alternative with scalable charging power and a dedicated, 3-phase 11 kW connection. Or a smart home charger provided by our partner Pod Point offers safe and intelligent charging with standard installation included in the price. You can also speak to your MINI partner about a combination of MINI Charging products and services ideally tailored to your domestic charging circumstances.
Cold weather can indeed temporarily reduce EV battery range by about 10-12%. But nowadays, most EVs have a reach of 250-300 km anyway. Easily enough for a daily commute. And thanks to their design, they are far more efficient than people think in winter. They perform arguably better in snow than conventional cars due to the low position of the battery and the resulting lower centre of gravity. Your best defence in cold spells is not letting your all-electric MINI vehicle get below a 20% charge. This acts as a reserve in case the battery is too cold and needs to draw from that stored energy to begin the charging process. Furthermore, to charge efficiently, your car’s battery likes to be within a certain temperature range – 15 to 25°C. If it’s really cold outside, the battery needs to warm up first before it can charge at faster speeds. So, if possible, keep your car in a garage so it is not affected as much by the temperature outside.

National grid capacity isn’t the big problem most people think. So far, the market entry of EVs in the EU has been very predictable and the electric grid is constantly being developed in in parallel. So there is no need for new electricity-generation capacity in the near future. Utility companies have had the time to plan ahead. However, the situation is country-specific. For example, in northern Europe, the evolution is more effortless because of the strong power grids and electric heating already in place. In other areas of Europe, the evolution is a bit more difficult due to the one-phase energy systems and older structures. But this is being adddressed at speed. In fact there is an ‘unexpected’ twist to this answer as electric vehicles can provide a vital source of flexibility in the energy system. Rather than being a threat to grid stability or capacity, EVs act as big batteries on wheels. They make it possible for energy to be stored and used at a later time. In the next few years, we will have a pool of EV chargers utilised as aggregated reserves.

Electric drive trains have far fewer moving parts than internal combustion engines (ICE), meaning electric cars can be cheaper to maintain, especially as servicing tends to cost less on average when compared to an ICE car. In addition to saving on servicing costs, the lower cost of using electricity to power your car when charging at home can add up over time, increasing your savings even more. However, while there are aspects of electric car ownership that are clearly cheaper than costs associated with an ICE car, you can expect traditional car parts such as tyres and brake pads to cost roughly the same.
