Purely electric vehicles already account for 15 percent of total global sales and have risen again in Europe with over 27,000 units of the MINI Electric sold in 2022. This means that the MINI Cooper SE already accounts for 22 percent of total sales. Germany, France and the UK in particular recorded strong sales growth for the MINI Electric. The all-electric MINI 3-door recorded the largest share of total sales in Scandinavia, at 45 percent.

In 2022, MINI further expanded its global offering for locally emission-free premium mobility with the sales launch of the all-electric MINI Cooper SE in Korea. These developments are evidence of the continued strong interest of the global MINI community in locally emission-free electric mobility.

"The continued success of MINI models with electric drive confirms the brand's path to an all-electric future. With a clear focus on sustainability with a minimal environmental footprint, MINI is attracting more and more customers worldwide who enjoy the electrified go-kart feeling," says Stefanie Wurst, Head of MINI.

In addition, the markets in India, Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam and New Zealand also saw strong growth, ending 2022 with the highest sales figures to date.
