TAKE CHARGE WITH MINI E

Finding innovative ways to use less while delivering more performance and fun has always been MINI’s priority and is the philosophy behind MINIMALISM. As part of our commitment to this goal, we are excited to be starting official UK Research trials of the 100% electric MINI E prototype.

With lightening acceleration, a silent motor and a range of 156 miles* on a single charge in optimal conditions, it’s 100% MINI but with 0% emissions.

Supported by funding from the Technology Strategy Board, a consortium led by BMW Group** will enable the MINI E to be tested on British roads where MINI E’s performance, the psychological and social impact of electro-mobility and the development of the infrastructure required to support it, will be evaluated.

*Under ideal driving conditions. Vehicles were tested according to Californian Test Procedures for 2005 and subsequent Zero-Emission Vehicles, amended 19 December 2003.

** MINI E UK Research Consortium partners: BMW Group, Scottish and Southern Energy, South East England Development Agency, Oxford City Council, Oxford Brookes University.
