BMW Mini Countryman - Prices And Specifications
BMW today released details of the new Mini Countryman in an official press release.
Following from our article on the 20th January 2010 we can now confirm the prices and specifications of the new car due to be released officially at the Geneva Motor Show next month.
Due to be launched in September this year, this is the first Mini to offer four-wheel-drive in Mini’s 51 year history. These will be called the ‘ALL4’ models, available at launch on the Cooper D and the Cooper S only with a Cooper ALL4 version released in 2012.
At the launch in September, five engines will be available, three petrol models and two diesel units in its new model line up. The petrol engines are the new 1.6litre engines that are due for release in cars due in March 2010, the diesel units are the same engines currently powering the Mini Hatch/Clubman/Convertible.
Jochen Goller, Director of Mini UK said:
“Countryman takes the MINI story to a new level” he added:
“The extra space and ALL4 MINI break new ground in the brand’s 51 year heritage. With Countryman prices starting at £16,000 and a very high standard specification, we are introducing more MINI piquancy into the crossover market this year.”
