Provided you don’t frequently need to venture too far away from a charging point, the Mini Countryman Electric makes a good case as an upmarket family SUV that you can plug in.
Entry-level Classic trim is reasonably well equipped, featuring 17in alloy wheels, two-zone climate control, a 9.5in infotainment touchscreen, cruise control and keyless start. Plus, you get rear parkings sensors and a camera to help with parking. We reckon Exclusive trim is worth the extra, though.
This is the quickest version of the Countryman Electric, developing 308bhp and 364lb ft of torque. Power is sent to all four wheels, sprinting from 0-62mph in 5.6sec and reaching a top speed of 111mph.
