Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica vs Mini Countryman Electric

Side-by-Side Specs

Charging Speed

The Mini Countryman Electric has a peak DC charging speed of 130 kW, which is roughly 30% faster than the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica at 100 kW. In practice, peak speed only tells part of the story. The charging curve, battery temperature, and state of charge all affect how quickly your car actually charges.

For the 10-80% charge (the most common DC fast charging scenario), the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica finishes in about 27 minutes, which is 2 minutes quicker than the Mini Countryman Electric at 29 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.

Range and Efficiency

The Mini Countryman Electric has a WLTP rated range of approximately 462 km, which is roughly 62 km more than the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica at approximately 400 km. WLTP is a standardized lab test. Expect your actual range to be lower, varying with speed, weather, terrain, and driving style.

Efficiency matters more than battery size for daily driving costs. The Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica consumes 159 Wh/km, compared to 163 Wh/km for the Mini Countryman Electric. That means the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica uses less energy per kilometer, which translates to lower charging costs and fewer charging stops on longer drives.

A more efficient car does not always mean more range. Battery size plays a role too. The Mini Countryman Electric has approximately 65.2 kWh of useable battery , while the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica has approximately 51 kWh.

Which One Should You Choose?

The Mini Countryman Electric has the higher peak DC speed at up to 130 kW, but the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica actually finishes the 10-80% charge faster at approximately 27 minutes versus approximately 29 minutes. That is because the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica has a smaller battery to fill. On road trips, time at the plug matters more than peak power.

Both cars support 11 kW AC charging, so home and workplace charging speeds will be similar.

If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica is the more efficient choice at 159 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.

For maximum range between charges, the Mini Countryman Electric has a WLTP rated range of approximately 462 km, which is roughly 62 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.
