About the 2027 MINI Countryman
3rd generation (U25), third U.S. model year; no redesign or mid-cycle refresh
MINI presents the Countryman as its most spacious and versatile model: a five-seat compact SUV that blends useful passenger and cargo room with the brand’s quick, playful handling. Standard AWD across the U.S. range supports year-round driving, while gas, electric, and high-performance versions cover different needs without changing the model’s core identity. Its round OLED center display, distinctive design, and agile road manners separate it from more conventional compact SUVs.
The S ALL4 is the everyday gasoline model, pairing a 241-hp turbo engine and AWD with a panoramic roof and a 9.4-inch circular touchscreen. The Oxford Edition adds distinctive design details, while the 308-hp electric SE ALL4 emphasizes quiet driving and a 216-mile EPA range. At the top, the 312-hp John Cooper Works ALL4 brings stronger brakes and an adaptive suspension for sharper performance.
