Mini electric vehicles in India (2026)
Mini has 1 electric car on sale or confirmed for India, priced at ₹50.00L. This page covers the full line-up with specs, realistic range estimates and where each model fits.
How to read these numbers
Every range figure on this page is Mini’s claimed or certified number, published as claimed. Expect roughly 72–80% of it in ordinary Indian conditions, and the lower end at highway speed with the air conditioning running — the working behind that band is set out in how we estimate real-world range, and the table below shows both figures so you can plan around the realistic one.
All Mini electric cars compared
| Model | Price from | Body | Claimed range | Real-world | Battery | Power | Seats | 10–80% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mini Cooper SE Electric | ₹50.00L | Hatchback | 320 km | 230–256 km | 40.7 kWh | 181 bhp | 4 | 30 min |
Prices ex-showroom and indicative. Real-world range estimated at 72–80% of claimed.

Which Mini EV should you buy?
Across the Mini range the answer turns on one number, and it is not the one most buyers start with: how far you drive on a typical day, not the longest trip you take in a year.
With only the Mini Cooper SE Electric on sale here, the real question is not which Mini but whether this one fits. At a realistic 230–256 km it suits daily commuting with a charge every few days. If that does not match your week, the honest answer is to look outside the brand.
Whichever you lean towards, settle the charging question before the car question: whether you can put a charge point where you park changes Mini ownership more than any specification in the table above.

The Mini line-up at a glance
Every figure below is calculated from Mini’s published specifications. Realistic range applies our 72–80% band; running cost assumes ₹8 a unit and about 10% charging loss.
| Model | From | Battery | Range | DC charge | Running cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mini Cooper SE Electric | ₹50.00 lakh | 40.7 kWh | 320 km claimed, about 243 km realistic | 30 min | about ₹1.47/km |
One model, and what that means. Mini sells a single electric vehicle in India right now. A narrow line-up is not a verdict on the product, but it does change what you are buying into: fewer variants to match to your budget, a thinner used market when you sell, and a service network that may be built around a small number of cars on the road. Ask how many EVs the brand has delivered in your city before you ask about the specification.
Cheapest way in is the Mini Cooper SE Electric at ₹50.00 lakh ex-showroom. Longest claimed range is the Mini Cooper SE Electric at 320 km, which works out to roughly 243 km in ordinary conditions once the 72–80% realistic band is applied. Lowest running cost in the line-up is the Mini Cooper SE Electric at about ₹1.47 per kilometre at ₹8 a unit.
Quickest to charge is the Mini Cooper SE Electric, which claims about 30 minutes on a DC fast charger. If you drive highways regularly this is the number to weigh most heavily, because it repeats on every trip — see the fastest-charging EVs in India for where that sits against the wider market.
What the table cannot tell you. Three things decide whether Mini suits you and none of them is a specification: whether there is a service centre near you that handles EVs specifically, whether the battery warranty transfers to a second owner, and whether you can install a charge point where you park. Check all three before you shortlist a Mini on numbers alone. Our comparison tool will put any two of these against a rival from another brand, and the running-cost calculator takes your own electricity tariff rather than our assumed ₹8 a unit.
