CHARGING YOUR MINI: HOW AND WHERE?

You can charge your MINI Electric at home with the Level 1 charging cord that comes standard with your MINI Electric – you just need a standard three-prong outlet. If you find yourself needing to recharge while you’re out, you can use one of the 20,000+ public charging stations available, with more being added every day. You can use your MINI app or the in-car navigation system to locate all the public charging stations available to you while you’re on the road, too. There are also a variety of third-party apps that may be helpful in locating nearby charging.

Your MINI comes with a level one charging cord that does not require any special equipment, just a standard three-prong outlet. For faster charging, an EVSE or wallbox can deliver a faster charge at your home or workplace. On the road, public charging can be utilized.

Charging your MINI Electric will typically cost about 1/3 of what it would cost for an equivalent gasoline model. Since all drivers will have different driving experiences, it is easy to calculate your average cost by multiplying your cost of electricity per kWh by the amount you are charging in kW.
