The MINI Countryman has always been a popular choice for drivers seeking a blend of iconic MINI styling with the practicality of a larger vehicle. Now, with the all-electric MINI Countryman, you can enjoy all of that and more, with zero tailpipe emissions. Priced from £33,005 on the road, the electric Countryman opens up a world of efficient and fun driving.
Unpacking the Price and What’s Included
The advertised price of £33,005 for the all-electric MINI Countryman is the ‘on the road’ (OTR) price. This comprehensive price includes several essential components, ensuring there are no hidden surprises. The OTR price covers:
- VAT (Value Added Tax): Sales tax included in the price.
- Delivery to the MINI Retailer: Transportation costs to get the car to your local dealership.
- Emergency Service: Initial emergency support for your new vehicle.
- Number Plates: Legal plates for vehicle identification.
- Vehicle First Registration Fee: The cost to register your car with the DVLA.
- Vehicle Tax: Road tax for the first year.
For a detailed breakdown of available models, optional features, and precise pricing tailored to your preferences, it’s always best to consult directly with your local MINI retailer. They can provide you with the most up-to-date information and help you configure your ideal electric MINI Countryman.

Understanding WLTP Figures: Electric Range and Real-World Driving
When considering an electric vehicle like the Mini Countryman Electric, understanding the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure) figures is crucial. These figures provide a standardized way to compare the CO2 emissions and electric range of different vehicles.
It’s important to remember that WLTP figures are generated under controlled laboratory conditions and are intended for comparison purposes. Real-world driving range can vary based on several factors, including:
- Initial Battery Charge: The starting charge level of your battery.
- Post-Registration Accessories: Features added after the car is registered that might draw power.
- Weather Conditions: Temperature and weather can affect battery performance.
- Driving Style: Aggressive driving will consume more energy than smooth, efficient driving.
- Vehicle Load: The weight the vehicle is carrying, including passengers and cargo.
While MINI recommends charging the battery to 80% for optimal battery health in everyday use, the WLTP electric range figures are obtained after a full 100% charge. For in-depth information on fuel economy and CO2 emissions data across all new car models, you can request a free guide at any MINI point of sale or visit the UK government’s website (gov.uk/co2-and-vehicle-tax-tools).

Attractive Finance Options: Representative 3.9% APR
To make owning the all-electric MINI Countryman even more accessible, there are often attractive finance options available. Currently, a representative 3.9% APR is offered on a MINI Select agreement for new vehicles ordered and registered within specific dates.
This finance offer is subject to terms and conditions, and it’s important to note the following:
- Retail Customers Only: This offer is typically for individual retail customers, not businesses.
- MINI Select Agreement: This is a hire purchase agreement with an optional final payment.
- Optional Final Payment: You have the choice to return the vehicle at the end of the agreement instead of paying the final lump sum (subject to vehicle condition and mileage terms).
- Credit Acceptance: Finance is subject to credit approval for UK residents aged 18 or over.
- Guarantees and Indemnities: These may be required depending on your individual circumstances.
MINI Financial Services provides the ‘MINI Select’ agreement. Park Lane Limited acts as a credit broker, introducing customers to MINI Financial Services and other lenders. They receive a commission for these introductions, but this does not affect the interest rate or APR you will pay. It is crucial to understand that this introduction does not constitute independent financial advice. Always review the full terms and conditions and ensure the finance agreement meets your personal financial situation.
