#Mini #MiniAceman
I’ve recently started my electric journey with new Countryman. It’s been 2 weeks and 2500kms. I’m amazed how good car and how good EV it is. Thank you Thomas for your reviews, it really had an impact on my decision! 😊
Highly appreciated! Please recommend our channel :-)

Thomas, Favourite car reviewer 💯💯
🙏🙏
It looks good and still retains the mini brand identity and driving dynamics
You both 'Aced it man!' Great review both and another high quality product from BMW. I love that funky animal-skin-free interior.
👍👍
High quality? I think you are high
The designers did a really nice job making it modern without leaaving behind a lot of the tradition.
Loved it! Great interior design😍
Welcome to my country Thomas.. welcome to Greece!
🇬🇷
Fantastic review ❤ I actually love this design 🥰
Thank you so much! Please recommend / share our channel 🙏
Is perfect especially if you don't have money for the countryman then this can be your sweet spot
if they bring ice version of this, yes.... This is fully Chinese built on Chinese platform..
@@THUGPUTIN…developed mostly by BMW
Appreciate the detailed review as always! As someone who is a bit unhappy where the countryman has gone in direction, the Aceman seems to be more keeping in spirit and for some reason the interior feels more cohesive / fitting. Look forward to your driving impressions! I do wish there was some form of AWD model (maybe JCW one day) but i doubt that will happen...
Highly appreciated! Please recommend our channel :-)
What a cool screen. And even cooler car. According to consumer reports these are actually reliable? Also, the website indicates there is an option to remove the sunroof which is awesome. One more car to add to the pile of "considerations." Very nice.
It’s cute! I hope it sells well. Looks small and therefore efficient.
Hope you enjoyed Greece 😉✌🇬🇷
Love it! :) For me as a Countryman F60 driver, the new U25 got too big!
It's ugly as shit. Looks cheap Chinese.
Agreed. The U25 is way too big. Even the F60 became a little too big for me. I still drive my R60 and this looks very similar to it.
Hi Stefan, welcome in Greece 😊!
The Clubman died for another Mini crossover
The charging station is excellently placed and the design is great as well. The house is located by the sea and is probably less visited in winter when there is a lot of rain and strong winds. I believe that the charger is shielded from external influences during the winter.
Thank you for the preview.
BMW are doing some really good things with Mini and this is an example. I think Mini and Smart have real race on for hearts, minds, and wallets. At the moment I do not care about the rest, but long for a better Alfa than the Junior.
Thanks 🙏
Nice car and great review!
Now waiting for your review of Alfa Romeo Junior 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Thanks!! I wanted to do a static one this week but got terribly sick. I ll then deliver the driving review as soon as possible
Aceman would be successful being a turbocharged gas model.
Doesn't it usually end up having an ICE option anyways?
It depends on the platform @@Tram-30
@@thejecs8 True.
I was getting ready to buy before it came out If it has ICE option.
Shame its just electric.
I thought it was the new Renault 5 ev when I saw the thumbnail :D That tells you what I think of the design. Does not look like a mini cooper
We who own Mini's love it
@@brandonpollard8928 I used to own a mini cooper ev. (Which was a great car)
I do like how the steering wheel strap towards the bottom carries towards the front window on the dashboard in a straight line.
Thankyou Thomas for a great review. One thing I would like to know is where the cars are made, if you could include that in your videos? I would like my next EV to be made in Europe.
Thanks 🙏
Here the answer is: both. Production starts in China, from 2026 also in Oxford
Finally someone thinking about locally made cars, it's a rarity nowadays. That's why I think the new Renault 5 and Citroen eC3 are cool. Also the future ford puma electric.
@@mihnealazar7039BMW call it local for local, part of their circular recyclable Green sustainability.
I love this thing 😄
"Mini Paceman was 3-door crossover, but they decided to get rid of that" 🙁The old model was cool.
I was definitely hoping for a 3 door option as an i3 replacement. Guess I'll hang onto my Rex.
Congrats on finally getting a wall box in your building @Thomas!
hehe =)
I look forward to the review of the JCW 3 door with manual transmission.
Oh it's so cute !
There should rename the cooper to cooperman in order to match the other models!
Nooooo
Great review? Would this ever come to the U.S ?
I think Mini should introduce a car that sits below the Cooper & call the "Micro" or "Minor" & have it as a competitor to the Fiat 500 & other A segment vehicles. It could be the same size or slitely smaller than the first gen Mini hatch/one
I LOVE MY MINI COOPER SPORT❤❤
I'd have major concerns about longevity with that OLED infotainment screen. I could very easily see different elements producing burn-in (predominantly the speedo), and I'm guessing Mini would only cover the replacement if it happens under the bumper-to-bumper warranty.
I wish this came in a three door like the Paceman.
Do we know if Mini is also going to eliminate their combustion range in the near future? It would be a shame as they would lose the markets where electrification is not really a logical choice yet (poor charging infrastructure, long distances, high energy prices etc.).
No one in poor countries buys a new mini. All of Europe is fit for city EV use which means that an entire market is suited for electrification
@@Kurre. Ha Ha Ha. I live in one of the wealthiest cities in Germany and we have 1 charging pillar for 81 cars in the city center at the moment. That is only the EVs that are registered right now. With more coming, it will get even worse. Still takes much investment and time!
Not completely. The 4th generation Mini Cooper was unveiled at the beginning of 2024 and is a heavily revised version of the 3rd generation hatch and still offers conventional combustion engines. Although it uses the 'old' platform, it looks a lot like the new all electric mini hatch.
@@Golftime123Sorry that you live in an underdeveloped country. I had higher thoughts about Germany… when I live, there are as many fast ev chargers as gas stations. That’s not counting all slow chargers or the home chargers…
@@minimoto99 Ah, so they pulled a Mercedes in that like the current "EQ..." range the Cooper is based on the internal combustion architecture and will still have those engines while the Aceman and Countryman have fully electric architectures with no plans (or engineering) for internal combustion.
5:40 Thomas, control yourself with that thing! 😂
😅
It looks like the spiritual successor of the R60 Countryman.
I didn´t like that they ditched the black wheel arches on the electric Cooper / Cooper S, that was a really distinctive feature over all generations. IMHO the cars looked lighter and more dynamic with less visual weight through body-colored parts. With the Aceman I´m not so sure about the front end, but I do like the rear and the side profile. Looks sleaker and more agile than a Countryman, but more mature and substantial than a Cooper.
Love your work, you are one of the first I see uploaded with new models and you have a great no BS factual based style.
I really like the look of this car inside and out, and the size would be perfect for my needs. Shame that range and charging are not great.
I mean a Kona 64 kWh cost almost the same and has more range, a frunk for the cables and a folding rear armrest.
Of course this is more premium, and it has golden dildos in the doors! 😂❤
Highly appreciated! Please recommend our channel :-)
I have a 3 weeks old Countryman EV - the S E Sport L3 - I wonder why both the Cooper and the Aceman have those awful plugs to cover the charge ports yet the Countryman gets rather nice hinged flaps to cover the connections inside the charge port flap? SurelyBMW Mini aren’t cost cutting on the 2 smaller cars?
This is more a replacement for the Clubman I think
After I’ve seen all the videos about the new models I ordered a mini cooper SE of the previous gen 😂 I HATE the fabric insider and I hate the new backlights and shape. The only thing I would change in the old version would be a larger battery and maybe the new display
I just want to remind myself of the thing Richard Hammond said about the original Mini Paceman
hi thomas…thought u are gonna use the joystick at the door to “shave” your beard again 😂
09:50: Thomas, it's to protect against accidental touches activating the heating controls. It isn't hard to understand.
Live rural so the small battery range kills it for me, I require 500km range. So a miss for me. Although I like the Aceman
Hey, engineers: Charging port caps should open with the door! Even ICE cars have evolved.
The nineties called: they want the DC charging times back…😮
The perception is that it cannot compete with the group of Zeekr X, Smart #1 and Volvo EX30 that should be in the same price tag...!
So... It looks about the same size as the first gen R60 Countryman... The new Countryman has gotten fatter and instead of renaming that under a name name plate signifying it's size I guess they did this instead.
This is by no means a crossover/suv no matter what they try to advertise it as. It's dimensions literally show that it's just a hatchback. Remove the cladding & it's incredibly clear
Not a huge fan of that face, but rear legroom is impressive for a car under 4.1m
Why couldn’t the front camera be located 1 inch up and hidden in the black part
Hate the notch at the bottom of the central screen in these new minis 😢 Although much better than before, it looks like those Gen1 circular smartwatches
Much prefer the rear lights on this one
Slowly murdering the Mini 😢
Hi Thomas, why review doesn't include driving experience?
That's usual. World premiere static; a couple of months later then the driving review. Standard industry practice so you ll always see both on our channel
I like it but it’s so far removed from the original mini concept which seems a shame. Fab review as always.
thanks m8 !
I find the interior quality compared with the previous generation ( same with the Mini ) a bit disappointing.
Everything is hard pack materials just covered with some fabric.
This is very cheap to produce and gives you Dacia vibes a bit.
All the soft touch materials of the previous generation of the Mini and derivatives are gone now.
Personally as a owner of a previous mini jcw I think the built quality increased. Last weekend I was in a mini store and set in the new one and many places were my old mini just had hard plastic oder some soft touch the new one had this fabric and in real life it felt and looked pretty good. At first I was also a little shocked about the new mini but now as I set in the new one it startes to work for me.
BMW, just make an actual small Mini !
There is the new mini cooper and it’s just a tiny bit smaller than the previous one
@@JK-kj2hu Something like the size of a VW up
These kind of cars are dead.@@snoopycharlie8718
Mini Assman 😎
I like everything about the new Mini range that came out recently, but I just hate that single armrest for the driver seat it feels like a very cheap aeroplane/bus armrest
Thomas, you would've let the girl grab that door handle instead

So the front passenger don't get a centre arm rest
We Americans call it chili red named after Nex Mexico pepper
I was expecting good things from the Aceman but I'm not too sure looking at it now. I've had lots of the R series MINIs but never fell in love with the F series. For me, I hate the plastic cladding, which always fades, and welcomed the cleaner look of the new electric J series. What a pity MINI decided to keep so much plastic on the Aceman so it's more 'rugged' looking - not that it will ever go offroad. With all that being said, the interior looks great.
Whilst the driving experience was awful, I still prefer the look of the Paceman.
Great review once again.
Imagine charging 35k euros for Dacia plastic for technically two seat micro hatch.
Really hope people are not THAT dumb to buy this.
jv between bmw and gwm! 🎉🎉🎉
Looks like a Citroen. Great.
Citroen looks great. This car doesn't!
Instead of building in that pop-up fake head-up display, why didn't they just add a small fix display, maybe like a small version of the one in the ID.4?
Nice🇸🇦
Is it Citroen? Felt like that..😏
Should have made that popup hud much wider and therefore a feature. Could have then even remained a fixed, open transparent panel. Shame.
Those weird headlights on the Aceman look ridiculous 😂 would look much better if they were round …
We need a G Class like SUV by mini called the Mini Superman 😂
Excellent review. Range is too low for the price IMHO.
cheers !
Mmmm… great review though 😊
Mini did a premium 2017 Citroen C3 Aircross, nice:)
Glad I bought a Clubman earlier this year. Not a fan of the new models.
As an owner of 3 countryman, I feel leaving the brand after seeing the new Mini
And now the weird question of the day, i'm watching your videos many years and i want to ask, you say, i am 1,89cm or 6'2" but if you watch older videos you were saying i am 1,86cm or 6'1" and i wander what happened? 😂😂😂
yes i re-measured hehe
It was almost impossible to ruin the mini, but they did it
after this crime against iconic design has been officially comited, I am not sure if I am interested in Cooper or any other Mini product..
nice review Thomas, dont belive bull crap about HUD, its like this just beacuse cost, the new landcruser has even more upfoward frontglass, but still has ''real'' hud..
hm maybe they have more space there in front of the dash and its possible therefore
Why has that Citroën got a Mini badge on?
Why they did all MINIs horrible when they had an amazing opportunity with the new platform? so sad for Mini.
The power symbol spins with the volume knob. Hard pass even if the car was gas powered 8:06
Center it after turning off the car. Problem solved.
@@goncalo33 or… OR!!!… just make it not rotate
That Mini plate for the infotainment screen looks toy-like
Is it made in China (like the new Mini cooper eletric)??
Mini smallman D:
Guess this is why the Clubman got dropped 😔
Can’t fault the build quality though
👌
Nice video... but no more 100% electric cars! That's enough
This looks like a Citroën Cactus in and out. It lost all the Mini DNA. The new design team vanished 24 years of Mini legacy within a year.
Sometimes Thomas is so naive that he buys Mini(ie BMW)'s arguments of why the proper headup display is difficult with the windscreen rake. Can they just play with the projector mounting angles in dashboard to compensate for the windscreen angle? Come on, Mini guys are bullshitting.
Or you can buy a second-hand i3 with similar battery capacity, performance, size, quirky styling for half the price. Not to mention the i3 is rear wheel drive and has a frunk 😂
if this had a 300 mile range I strongly believe it would be the most popular mini in the US. As is, they will be nearly impossible to sell here.
So, given that real world range is usually around the 3 miles per kwh...the range on these will be pretty dismal
Shame they got rid of the clubman, we won’t be buying this as the replacement!
