Similar to the related J01 Mini Cooper electric, the Aceman was developed and produced by Spotlight Automotive, a joint venture between BMW Group and Great Wall Motor, at a manufacturing plant in Zhangjiagang, Jiangsu, China.
The Mini Aceman was revealed as concept car on 26 July 2022,[2][3] previewing a new design language for the Mini brand.[4][5]
The Aceman will replace the Clubman which is rumored for planned discontinuation at the end of the current generation's cycle. The Aceman will be position under the larger compact-class Countryman SUV.[6]
In August 2022 at the Gamescom video games convention in Cologne, Germany, Mini showcased a Pokémon-themed Aceman concept encased in 1:1 scale toy car packaging. Attendees could purchase a small scale model of this vehicle in identical packaging.[7]
The production version of the Mini Aceman was introduced in April 2024 at the Beijing Auto Show. The Aceman comes exclusively with battery electric powertrains with two options available. Four trims will be available, which are Essential, Classic, Favored, and JCW.[8][9]
The Aceman shares similar design elements from the Cooper J01 and Countryman. The headlights and matrix rear lights has three different modes for the LED graphics. There are matte black lower sills and standard roof rails to resemble a crossover SUV instead of a tall hatchback.[10][11]
The interior is similar to Cooper J01. There is a 9.44 in (24.0 cm) touchscreen (operated by MINI OS 9) is the only interior screen which has most of the vehicle functions, a few toggle switches for the essential functions, Mini's new Intelligent Personal Assistant called "Spike" (debuting in the Aceman), and eight selectable Mini Experience Modes. The dashboard is covered with knitted material and the door cards are made from recycled polyester.[10]
Despite its small dimensions, Mini designers made use of the “Clever Use of Space” design principle, therefore the Aceman has 300 L (11 cu ft) of boot space and can be increased to 1,005 L (35.5 cu ft) when the rear seats are folded.[10]
