Munich. The MINI brand looks back on an extremely
successful 2025. With a total volume of 288,290 vehicles, MINI
achieved a significant sales increase of 17,7% compared to 2024
figures. Particularly impressive is the high demand for battery
electric vehicles (BEVs): with 105,535 fully electric MINIs delivered
in 2025 (+87,9%), the brand achieved a new record in electromobility,
resulting in more than every third MINI sold worldwide being electric.
In many markets, the share is significantly above 50%, such as
Netherlands, Turkey, Sweden and China.
Jean-Philippe Parain, Head of the MINI brand, emphasizes: “MINI
continuously increases the share of fully electric vehicles, thereby
demonstrating its innovative strength and future orientation. Our
strong volume growth across all regions in 2025 clearly reflects the
exceptional appeal of the MINI model family. The updated iconic
design, the sportiness, individuality and expanded electric offerings
of the MINI brand have met customer expectations all around the globe.
A growth driver was the largest MINI model in the product
portfolio, the MINI Countryman: with a 32,4 % share of the total MINI
volume, it underlines the brand’s SUV expertise. The Countryman
combines typical MINI driving pleasure with innovative design and high
versatility – ideal for any outdoor challenge. In 2025, 93,305 units
were sold worldwide (+15.2%); the fully electric Countryman achieved a
sales growth of 81.8% compared to 2024.
Sub-brand John Cooper Works reaches record
numbers
The sporty John Cooper Works (JCW) sub-brand
also set new standards in 2025: with 25,630 units sold, MINI JCW
increased the sales volume by 59.5% and achieved a new sales record.
The share of JCW vehicles reached 8.9% of the total MINI volume. In
some markets, such as UK, Italy, Japan and Australia, the
performance-enhanced MINI models reached their highest sales figures
to date.
The MINI Cooper family
The traditional MINI
Cooper family, consisting of the MINI Cooper 3-Door, the MINI Cooper
5-Door and the MINI Convertible, recorded with 162,789 a sales
increase of 10.3% compared to the previous year. The new generation of
the MINI Cooper Convertible, only introduced in 2025, rounded off the
model family with unique features. With 22,491 units sold, a sales
growth of 18.4% was achieved. The MINI Cooper 5-Door impresses with
typical brand-specific driving fun, increased space, and high
functionality and recorded with 47,850 units a significant growth of
26.5% compared to 2024.
2026 starts with the new MINI Paul Smith
Edition
Starting in 2026, the MINI Cooper 3-Door, MINI
Cooper 5-Door, and MINI Cooper Convertible – both electric and
combustion engine versions – will be available in the new MINI Paul
Smith Edition. This edition combines the unmistakable style of the
British designer Paul Smith with the playful, optimistic and
independent spirit of the MINI brand. Following the successful
collaborations “MINI STRIP” (2021) and “MINI Recharged by Paul Smith”
(2022), Paul Smith now brings his world-famous design language
“Classic with a twist” into the MINI family once again.
