From Battery Life.

Description:
Today I take the Mini Cooper E with the small 36.6 kWh battery on a real-world long distance trip in winter conditions. This is not a car made for 600 km highway drives, but sometimes you still have to go further than the city.

Instead of forcing an unrealistic route, I planned a ~350 km trip using A Better Routeplanner, optimized for 110 km/h cruising speed, low temperatures, and minimal charging stops.

In this video you’ll see:
Real winter consumption at constant highway speed
How far the Mini Cooper E can actually go at 110 km/h
DC charging performance on Ionity
Total driving time, charging time, and average speed
Honest verdict: how usable is the Mini Cooper E beyond the city?

⏱ Trip summary:
Distance: ~322 km
Driving time: 3h 43min
Average speed incl. charging: ~86–87 km/h
Charging stops: 2
Total DC charging time: 35 minutes
Winter consumption: 18.2 kWh/100 km
