My Mini 850 was dynod at 24hp, it sure wasn't a drag racer but its not the slowest car I've had either, it kept up with day to day traffic just fine on acceleration and topped out in the low 90s according to the uncalibrated stock speedo. I wouldn't mind betting that 15KW with electrics flat torque curve and no gears would give better performance at least into the 80s. the BMC "A" engine has an iron block too, so you shouldn't be any heavier converted depending on the range you needed.
