The base variant will have a 40 kWh battery pack, and the top-end ‘S’ variant will have a ~50 kWh battery pack. According to a report Express [URL:https://www.express.co.uk/news/science/1664578/mini-how-bmw-plan-take-iconic-car-fully-electric-2030] released on September 4, 2022, Dr. Thomas Becker, Vice President – Sustainability and Mobility Strategy, BMW Group, suggests that the company is not worried about the short range of MINI EVs. He says that many MINI customers reside in urban and suburban locations and don’t necessarily travel thousands of kilometers. They use their MINIs for commuting. Moreover, there’s a strong possibility that these customers already have a longe-range model as their primary vehicle for traveling distances.
