In Belgi\u00eb is dat imago opmerkelijk snel veranderd. HR-groep Accent heeft nu 500 volledig elektrische MINI\u2019s besteld, de grootste afzonderlijke bestelling van elektrische auto\u2019s in de wereldwijde geschiedenis van MINI.<\/p>\n<p>De auto\u2019s, voornamelijk modellen van Aceman en Countryman Electric, zullen worden ingezet bij Accent, Nowjobs en CTRL-F. Met ongeveer 1.100 medewerkers en meer dan 300 kantoren in Belgi\u00eb vormt deze bestelling een aanzienlijk deel van het bedrijfswagenpark van de groep.<\/p>\n<p>Voor MINI zijn de cijfers echter nog opvallender. Het merk registreerde in 2025 in Belgi\u00eb 7.558 auto\u2019s, waarvan er 5.375 naar bedrijven of zelfstandigen gingen. Dat betekent dat meer dan zeven op de tien Belgische MINI\u2019s zakelijk werden geregistreerd.<\/p>\n<p>Alleen al de bestelling van 500 auto\u2019s door Accent komt overeen met meer dan 9% van het totale Belgische B2B-volume van MINI van vorig jaar.<\/p>\n<h4>Van schattige hatchback tot serieuze concurrent in het wagenpark<\/h4>\n<p>Dat was een paar jaar geleden nog moeilijk voor te stellen. MINI heeft altijd een sterke merkbekendheid gehad, maar de kleine auto\u2019s van het merk werden vaak als te niche of te onpraktisch beschouwd voor het gangbare bedrijfswagenbeleid. De nieuwe elektrische reeks heeft daar verandering in gebracht.<\/p>\n<p>De Cooper Electric blijft het compacte instapmodel, maar de Aceman biedt vijf deuren, meer ruimte en een crossover-design zonder daarbij te groot te worden. Daarboven is de nieuwste Countryman uitgegroeid tot een volwaardige gezins-SUV. MINI kan daardoor nu verschillende categorie\u00ebn bedrijfswagens bestrijken, in plaats van bijna uitsluitend te vertrouwen op varianten van de klassieke hatchback.<\/p>\n<p>De Aceman zou wel eens de doorslaggevende factor kunnen zijn. Hij combineert het MINI-logo, een relatief compacte afmeting en voldoende bruikbaarheid voor dagelijks gebruik met lease-kosten die binnen het budget van bedrijven voor bedrijfswagens in het lagere en middensegment passen.<\/p>\n<p>Er is nog een andere factor die in spreadsheetanalyses van wagenparken niet gemakkelijk tot uiting komt: de aantrekkelijkheid.<\/p>\n<p>Met ongeveer hetzelfde leasebudget kan een medewerker een MINI als onderscheidender of luxer ervaren dan veel gangbare compacte SUV\u2019s. Dat kan het een interessant alternatief maken voor bedrijven die strijden om jongere medewerkers aan te trekken en te behouden \u2013 wat met name relevant is voor een HR-groep als Accent.<\/p>\n<h4>Belgi\u00eb had al eerder een record gevestigd<\/h4>\n<p>Accent is niet de eerste Belgische werkgever die dit effect heeft ontdekt. In 2021 bestelde Deloitte Belgi\u00eb 140 MINI Electrics, wat BMW destijds omschreef als de grootste bestelling van een elektrisch MINI-wagenpark in Europa.<\/p>\n<p>Deloitte beschikte al over 100 elektrische MINI\u2019s, en volgens BMW was het model vooral populair geworden onder jongere nieuwe medewerkers. Accent heeft die eerdere EV-benchmark nu meer dan verdrievoudigd. Ondertussen is Belgi\u00eb zelf buitengewoon belangrijk geworden voor MINI. Het aantal Belgische registraties steeg in 2025 met ongeveer 30%, vergeleken met een wereldwijde MINI-groei van 17,7%.<\/p>\n<p>Het Belgische belastingstelsel voor bedrijfswagens speelt hier duidelijk in het voordeel. Volledig elektrische auto\u2019s die bedrijven in 2026 bestellen, blijven gedurende hun gehele gebruiksduur in aanmerking komen voor fiscale aftrekbaarheid volgens 100%. Voor auto\u2019s die vanaf 2027 worden besteld, daalt dat percentage geleidelijk. Voor bedrijven die toch al van plan zijn hun wagenpark te vernieuwen, is 2026 daarom een logisch jaar om de overstap te maken.<\/p>\n<h4>Een enorme prestatie voor MINI, minder indrukwekkend voor BMW<\/h4>\n<p>De Accent-deal is een wereldrecord voor elektrische MINI\u2019s, maar BMW Group Belux heeft dit jaar in Belgi\u00eb al een nog groter contract voor elektrische auto\u2019s gesloten.<\/p>\n<p>Katoen Natie heeft meer dan 1.000 elektrische BMW- en MINI-modellen besteld, wat door BMW werd omschreven als de grootste Belgische order voor een elektrisch bedrijfswagenpark die ooit bij \u00e9\u00e9n enkele fabrikant is geplaatst. Dat relativeert de bestelling van Accent en onderstreept de bredere trend.<\/p>\n<p>De BMW Group staat buitengewoon sterk op de Belgische markt voor bedrijfswagens, en MINI profiteert steeds meer van die positie. Het merk is uitgegroeid van een trendy kleine auto die door wagenparkbeheerders met tegenzin werd geaccepteerd tot een volwaardig aanbod voor wagenparken.<\/p>\n<p>En Belgi\u00eb lijkt een van de markten te zijn waar die transformatie het verst is doorgevoerd. Vijfhonderd elektrische MINI\u2019s voor \u00e9\u00e9n enkele klant is een record. De interessantere vraag is hoe MINI \u00fcberhaupt een merk is geworden dat in staat is om zo\u2019n order binnen te halen.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MINI used to be the kind of car employees wanted, but fleet managers hesitated to buy.
