From the side, the new Countryman appears larger and more boxy, a departure from the current model. It features a squared-off front end, pronounced overhangs, and sharp, angular headlights reminiscent of the ACEMAN Concept. The octagonal grille aligns with MINI’s visual identity.
The third-gen MINI Countryman measures 4429 mm (174.3 in) in length, 1613 mm (63.5 in) in height, with a 2670 mm (105.1 in) wheelbase. It’s smaller than its BMW platform counterpart but larger than the previous model. This accommodates the smaller electric-only Aceman, coming in 2024. The electric Countryman lineup offers two options: the 188 hp (140 kW) Countryman E and the 268 hp (200 kW) Countryman SE ALL4, featuring all-wheel drive with electric motors on both axles.
Both variants feature a 64-kWh battery pack. The two-wheel-drive model aims for a 440 km (273 miles) range in the WLTP cycle, while the more powerful version targets 420 km (261 miles) on a single charge. The gasoline-powered Countryman with S and JCW performance variants continues, with detailed specifications yet to be revealed, except for front-wheel drive. The future of the MINI Countryman promises an electrifying ride for enthusiasts.
