Mini Aceman (2025) Price & Specs
The electric Mini Aceman has quietly arrived in South Africa. Here’s how much you can expect to pay.
Positioned between the new Mini Cooper and Mini Countryman is the Mini Aceman, an all-electric compact SUV. Mini is claiming a 5-seater setup, with a boot capacity of 300 litres, growing to just over 1000 litres if you fold the rear seats down. Officially, the Aceman’s wheelbase is 8 cm longer than the Cooper and 9 cm shorter than the Countryman.
Interestingly, the Mini Aceman is priced at the Cooper SE’s level, with the two models costing an identical R800 000. Which one would you choose then? This is a question we hope to answer at some point.
What’s on offer?
There will be two derivatives in the Mini Aceman lineup. Kicking off the range is the Aceman E, which has power outputs of 135 kW and 290 kW, and is good for a claimed 0-100 kph in 7.9 seconds. If you’re wanting a bit more performance, the Aceman SE brings 160 kW and 330 Nm to the table, and that’s said to hit 100 kph in a claimed 7.1 seconds.
Top speed is not really an electric car’s specialty, but for what it’s worth top speeds of 170 kph and 180 kph are touted for the E and SE respectively.
Based on the WLTP cycle, the Aceman E has a range of 305 km with a 42.5 kWh battery, while the SE is good for 406 km, due to its larger 54.2 kWh battery pack.
The Aceman will feature the latest of Mini’s cabins, including that sharp-looking circular OLED screen, high-end trim made from recycled materials as well as your traditional Mini driving modes like Go-Kart.
How much does the Mini Aceman cost in South Africa?
Aceman E R800 000
Aceman SE R892 000
The new Aceman is sold with a 5-year / 100 000 km maintenance plan. There’s a 2-year/unlimited km for the vehicle and an 8-year/100 000 km battery warranty.

Summary
It comes with a two-year/unlimited kilometre warranty with the battery covered for eight-years/100 000km and a five-year/100 000 km maintenance plan.
With South Africans slowly becoming more comfortable with EVs it will be interesting to see how the Mini Aceman stacks up against the similarly priced Volvo EX30 Core Single Motor when the monthly sales are revealed.
Pricing
Mini Aceman E: R800, 000
Mini Aceman SE R892, 000
