About the MINI Countryman E (U25, 2024)

The body has grown noticeably compared to the previous Countryman, moving towards the compact SUV size of the iX1.
In practice
The WLTP figure is about 462 km (manufacturer figure, not measured by us). DC charging peaks around 130 kW; 10-80% takes about 30 minutes under favourable conditions (manufacturer figure, not measured by us). Owners report a noticeably lower range in winter (public forums, limited n, not measured by us). The indicative list price rose from about 41,500 euro (reference date early 2024) to 42,900 euro now; this is a starting price, not an offer and not a forecast.
Points to note
The braked towing weight of 1,200 kg is limited for an SUV; check it for caravan use against your actual weight. Body and battery weight push the consumption above that of a comparable sedan. The interior centres on a round OLED screen without analogue instruments; whether that works pleasantly is a matter of taste, check it on a test drive at the official dealer.
