Countryman SE ALL4
308 HP AWD electric crossover — bigger and more practical than Cooper SE. 11kW onboard charger, 48A Level 2. Here's what its onboard charger actually needs from your home's electrical panel.
Home (Level 2) charging facts

Typical full-speed install
48A charger on a 60A circuit
Reaches this car's 11 kW ceiling. Whether your panel has room for that circuit depends on everything else already on it - that's the actual assessment.
Connector
CCS
CCS (Combined Charging System) is the most common connector on non-Tesla EVs for both home Level 2 charging and public DC fast charging.
On the Countryman SE ALL4 specifically, that connector carries up to 11 kW at home on Level 2 and up to 130 kW on public DC fast hardware.
Charging speed by circuit size
The MINI Countryman SE's onboard charger can't use more than 11 kW AC no matter how big the circuit - past 48A, a bigger charger buys you nothing on this car.
| Charger setting | This car actually draws | Range added / hour | 8-hr overnight |
|---|---|---|---|
| 16A | 3.8 kW | ~13 mi | ~104 mi |
| 24A | 5.8 kW | ~19 mi | ~152 mi |
| 32A | 7.7 kW | ~25 mi | ~200 mi |
| 40A | 9.6 kW | ~31 mi | ~248 mi |
| 48A | 11.0 kWcapped by car | ~36 mi | ~288 mi |
Overnight, at full onboard speed
288 mi / 8 hrs
360 mi across a 10-hour window, at 11 kW.
Approximate cost to fill from empty
$8.45
Assumes $0.13/kWh (a national-average estimate, not your local rate) × 65 kWh - about $0.040/mile.
MINI Countryman SE charging questions
How long does it take to charge a 2025–2026 MINI Countryman SE ALL4 on a Level 2 charger?
About 5.9 hours from empty to full at its 11 kW onboard-charger ceiling (65 kWh battery ÷ 11 kW).
Times scale with amperage - see the circuit-size table above for other settings.
What amperage does a MINI Countryman SE draw on Level 2?
At its full 11 kW rate, the MINI Countryman SE draws about 46A at 240V (kW × 1000 ÷ 240 = amps).
Can a MINI Countryman SE use a 48-amp charger?
Not to any real benefit. The MINI Countryman SE's onboard charger tops out at 11 kW (~46A) - a 48A charger doesn't charge it any faster than one already sized to 46A.
How much range does a MINI Countryman SE add per hour on a Level 2 charger?
About 36 miles of range per hour at its 11 kW ceiling (11 kW × 3.26 mi/kWh efficiency).
How much range does an 8-hour overnight charge add to a MINI Countryman SE?
Roughly 288 miles from an 8-hour overnight charge (36 mi/hr × 8 hours), or about 360 miles across a 10-hour window.
What's the DC fast charging ceiling for a MINI Countryman SE?
Up to 130 kW on a public DC fast charger - well above its 11 kW Level 2 (home) ceiling, though DC fast rates taper as the battery fills.
