2025 Mini Countrymen EV Pre-Bookings India: Details
Mini India has started taking pre-bookings for the upcoming 2025 Countryman electric in the country. The bookings are active on the company’s official India website. Mini will likely announce the launch date soon. However, rumors indicate at an imminent launch (possibly within next few weeks). We might see some developments across its arrival by next month.
Currently, Mini is maintaining all silence with the Countrymen EV’s expected pricing in the country. But it is expected to be imported via CBU route in the country. This raises the possibility of the Countrymen EV to carry an expensive price label. Some reports hints at a price range of around Rs. 70 lakh (ex showroom).
However, the exact pricing will only be confirmed once the Countryman electric is made official in India. With the suggested price range, we can expect the Mini Countryman EV to go up against the likes of Hyundai Ioniq 5, Kia EV 6, and the Volvo XC 40 Recharge in India.

Speaking of the powertrain, the Mini Countryman is said to be introduced in two different trim options both of which will be backed by a 66.54 kWh battery. The Countryman’s motor pack will be capable of delivering 201 bhp of peak power and a peak torque of 250 Nm.
