The all-electric MINI Aceman arrives as the cheeky middle child between the Cooper and Countryman, yet it wastes no time carving its own identity. Tipping the tape at a whisker over four metres, the crossover slips through tight city lanes, then pops open its cabin to reveal genuine space for five. Thanks to MINI’s knack for clever packaging, the boot swallows 300 litres of shopping or sports kit, expanding to just over a cubic metre when the rear seats fold flat—enough for a weekend escape without resorting to soft-bag Tetris.
Visually, the Aceman trades the familiar oval grille for an octagonal frame that plunges into the lower apron, flanked by sharp LED eyes that lend a determined stare. Muscular arches sit over standard 18-inch wheels, while roof rails whisper about bikes and boards waiting for their next outing. The stance feels planted, purposeful and refreshingly free of chrome clutter.
Press the right-hand pedal and 184 bhp answers instantly, hustling the Aceman from rest to 62 mph in 7.9 seconds before topping out at 160 km/h. Steering remains quick and talkative, the short wheelbase keeps the chassis keen, and the low-centred battery helps the car pivot through bends with customary MINI go-kart verve—minus the petrol hum.
A 42.5 kWh pack sits beneath the floor, good for up to 309 kilometres on the WLTP cycle. Plug in at home or a public charger, pre-set departure times via the MINI app and step into a pre-conditioned cabin that’s ready for the commute or coast road alike. Charging progress, cost estimates and battery status are all served up on your phone, making range anxiety little more than background noise.
Personalisation remains a MINI hallmark: a palette of punchy body colours can be matched to two-tone roofs, while Essential, Classic, Favoured and John Cooper Works trims tailor the look from understated to motorsport-infused. Inside, a circular OLED centre display, tactile toggle switches and vibrant woven surfaces create a lounge-inspired ambience, proving minimalism needn’t feel sparse.
With tidy dimensions, useful practicality and a powertrain tuned for spirited everyday motoring, the MINI Aceman stands ready to shoulder school runs, city commutes and spur-of-the-moment adventures without a whiff of tailpipe fumes—an electric all-rounder that’s anything but dull.
