THE NEW ALL-ELECTRIC MINI FAMILY.

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.  You can also speak to your MINI partner about a combination of MINI Charging products and services ideally tailored to your domestic charging circumstances.

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.

If you cannot start a charging session, please take into consideration the following recommendations:

Please check in advance if the charge point is available or out of order using the MINI App.

For the authentication via MINI App, please first check whether the charging station supports authentication via app or QR code. You can find out by clicking on the charging station in your app. If it does, it is recommended to use the "Start" button in the app instead of scanning the QR code placed on the charging station.

In case of technical or physical problems, please contact the charge point operator first. You can find the operator's service hotline on the charging station.

If the problem still remains, please contact our customer service team. If you have specific problems with a MINI Charging session or have questions about your MINI Charging contract, invoices or payments, please contact MINI Charging at: Telephone: 1397 (Monday – Friday 8am – 7pm, except national holidays) E-mail: MINICALLCENTER@MINI.CO.TH .

As is the case for a vehicle with a conventional propulsion system, driving style also affects the range in an electric car. As a general rule, an anticipatory, relaxed and uniform style of driving optimises your range. If, for example, you reduce your speed on the motorway from 130 km/h to 110 km/h, you can noticeably increase your range. During recuperation, that means whenever you lift your foot from the accelerator pedal, kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy and fed into the battery – and as a result you gain further kilometres in range.

By pre-heating the battery, you not only improve the charging speed (especially in cold temperatures) and efficiency when you drive, but you also help maintain your battery's health.

It’s best to maintain a charge of between 20 and 80 per cent. Lower or higher levels are possible, but to optimise the life of your battery, it is recommended to stay between these marks. In your vehicle’s menu, you can easily and conveniently set your target charge to 80 per cent, so you’ll never have to worry about it. This should cover all your daily driving needs. If you actually need more, simply set a higher target.

Normal charging with alternating current (AC): This charges your car efficiently, primarily overnight but also during the day. Compared to a domestic power socket, an AC charging station provides more power and can charge the battery in just a few hours. This type of charging station is referred to as an AC charging station, for short. Quick charging with direct current (DC): DC quick charging stations are the better option when you need to charge your car fast. They can recharge your vehicle's battery quickly – while you go shopping or have a bite to eat, for example. The charging process lasts between 30 and 40 minutes. This type of charging station is referred to as a DC charging station, for short.

An electric car offers an entirely new, emotionally charged driving excitement. Thanks to the torque available from a stand-still, you experience fascinating electric dynamics and spontaneous acceleration.

When actually driving, a BEV is also emission-free and therefore offers maximum protection for our environment.

Although the MINI marque is part of the BMW group, a MINI is and will always be a MINI. However, it is fair to say that while the MINI range retains all the design flair and fun of the original Mini, it also benefits from BMW's renowned precision engineering and innovative technology.

Yes of course. Simply use the steadily expanding public network of MINI Charging or other charging stations as available, such as from your employer. The MINI App or the navigation system in your vehicle shows you public charge points nearby. Attractive public charging tariffs and personalised offers are also available exclusively to MINI customers.
