Mini Aceman vs Nissan LEAF

Side-by-Side Specs

Charging Speed

The Nissan LEAF has the higher published DC charging figure at 150 kW, which is roughly 58% higher than the Mini Aceman at 95 kW. In practice, that figure 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 published fast-charge window, the Mini Aceman is listed at about 30 minutes, which is 2 minutes quicker than the Nissan LEAF at 32 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.

Range and Efficiency

The Nissan LEAF has a WLTP rated range of approximately 624 km, which is roughly 274 km more than the Mini Aceman at approximately 350 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 Nissan LEAF consumes 163 Wh/km, compared to 170 Wh/km for the Mini Aceman. That means the Nissan LEAF 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 Nissan LEAF has approximately 75.1 kWh of useable battery , while the Mini Aceman has approximately 49.2 kWh.

Which One Should You Choose?

The Nissan LEAF has the higher published DC figure at up to 150 kW, but the Mini Aceman has the shorter published charge time at approximately 30 minutes versus approximately 32 minutes. On road trips, published stop time matters more than the headline kW number alone.

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 Nissan LEAF is the more efficient choice at 163 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.

For maximum range between charges, the Nissan LEAF has a WLTP rated range of approximately 624 km, which is roughly 274 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.
