MUNICH: With the new MINI Countryman E, the brand is expanding its all-electric model range.
The model is 13cm longer and 8cm taller than the second-generation MINI Countryman.
As a result, the currently largest MINI offers more interior space than ever and thus new storage room.
When the rear seat is folded down, the volume can be up to 1,450 liters.
202 mm ground clearance provide additional comfort on uneven roads.
Four new vehicle trims are available for the MINI Countryman.
The 150 kW/204 hp electric motor of the MINI Countryman E achieves a torque of 250 Nm. As a result, the all-rounder accelerates from standstill to 100 km/h in 8.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 170 km/h.
The powerful battery has an energy content of 66.45 kWh.
With DC fast charging of up to 130 kW, 29 minutes are enough to charge the battery from 10 to 80 percent.
In the WLTP test cycle, the model has a range of up to 462 kilometers.
A completely new exterior design enhances the off-road character of the MINI Countryman.
The redesigned octagonal front grille, together with the distinctive LED headlamps, enhances the appearance of the MINI Countryman E.
Almost three centimeters more width in the shoulder and elbow area gives the driver and passenger additional space and comfort in the cockpit of the new MINI Countryman.
The dashboard is covered with two-tone textile, which extends into the interior door panels.
The round OLED display with 240 mm diameter and a high-quality glass surface forms the center of the cockpit.
All infotainment and assistance systems based on the new MINI Operating System 9 can be controlled here via touch or voice control.
A panoramic glass roof brings additional light to the spacious interior.
With the optional Driving Assistant Professional, partially automated Level 2 driving on motorway-like routes is possible for the first time.
This allows the driver to take his hands off the steering wheel at speeds of up to 60 km/h.
In addition, the assistant can identify gaps in traffic necessary to change lanes towards the exit. It then brings the vehicle to the optimal speed for assisted lane change.
