The 2025 Mini Countryman S Is A Chic & Modern Big-Small SUV With Tons Of British Charm

[@elizabethvanvliet2380]

I always loved the outside of Mini’s, but hated the interior center stack. It looks so much better now.

[@martinliden8453]

Perfect sized car for many people. And very nice design with personality. Like it a lot 👌🏼

[@CarGeek360]

You like everything that isn’t a Toyota or Lexus

[@selenkrgo3853]

Can't believe they cheaped out so much with some of the materials, ridiculous to not have padded armrests in the second row for this price

[@pattycarljackson]

The fact you need to use the screen for some basic functions is a no go.

[@HiiImChris]

Honestly, they almost had no choice but to upsize this vehicle. Size is too important in the market atm, and they need SOMETHING to access the massive customer base, but provide something different and fun. In a way just think of it as their version of a 3 row, by comparison its small despite being their largest vehicle ever

[@oliverroo59]

I actually really like this interior. It's different without being ugly, and the screen is cool. Having climate controls in the screen is a bad idea, though. It's like modern car interiors are designed to be distracting.

[@cbotten106]

Charismatic simplicity. The marketing people must have really burned the midnight oil to cook that one up. And the Countryman grew up fast.

[@TacoRob72]

Do not like the wheels at all.

[@Roadbunny777]

That's a beautiful green 💚 it. I've never driven a mini myself, but I've ride in one, I'm a fan of the brand

[@caliboyrob]

Looks great. I always liked Countryman. Something different from the typical premium/luxury brands

[@CalvinHikes]

"Mini"

[@angusmacdonald5300]

It’s a brand. The tiny models don’t work for some people. They still make much smaller models.

[@angusmacdonald5300]

I have one. 5000 miles now and I love it!

[@angusmacdonald5300]

Great review. No leather in this car, though. That was intentional - MINI call it vescin.

[@MichaelBrush191]

LOVE IT ! We are buying one in the spring.......

[@VhOteda]

The variety of textures in the kislux pack is impressive. From smooth leather to textured suede, there's something for everyone.

[@TheCXTKRS1]

It looks like they tried really to make it look...fun. You want is X series but with brighter colors and some cute sounds? This feels like the Scion of BMW.

[@Facethevibes]

Love this video thank you it was so helpful

[@AAPLGUY]

This is such a cool car! I love all the little quirks and features. Cars like this prove practical doesn’t have to be “boring.” I see BMW products daily, and reliability has greatly improved vs a decade ago, hopefully this trend continues here.

[@o-townminideals3104]

If you press down on the shifter it'll go from D to L1 which will start you in first gear. Plus, when you go into the experience mode...you click on the settings cogg and then you can put the car into sport plus or completely turn off traction control. It will be faster.

[@esaireyna899]

The fob looks like a Pepperidge Farm Milano cookie!!!!

[@HiiImChris]

Its called sterling silver i think, not bronze. Its supposed to be a sort of textures/matte silver with a subtle gold hue because theyre trying to get away from chrome elements. I like kt

[@FinancialShinanigan]

Thought it was a refreshed Corolla Cross lol

[@Jdogg4089]

No way. I think this looks way better than that. I think the regular Corolla looks a lot better, particularly in the front.

[@gerry9306]

You apparently enjoy writing in nonsense

[@Lucky8s]

​@@Jdogg4089 It's just a Ford Puma

[@Jdogg4089]

@Lucky8s Never heard of that. We don't have those here.

[@Taurusboy07]

Absolutely LOVE this ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Jojoba-wz6ri]

It looks amazing. Love it. Not in love with the interior stack, but I’m sure you get used to it.

[@BrianHeffernan-qz4xd]

That was a good video, Sofyan. This Mini is nice. The only problem I have with it is it isn't mini. Have a wonderful weekend.

[@Michael-lz3bk]

I would want the roof blacked out and different wheels

[@Dkkvl3]

Right the wheels are hideous

[@thrash123ful]

The last Gen looked better this one proportions look a little off especially with those wheels.If I was in the Cross Over market I would pick the X1 over this on looks.

[@EswarNeon]

Yes the color of the kislux is beautiful and it is a great decision, maybe one day they will add feet and straps. It would be nice to have a bigger bag during the colder months when we have to store gloves, beanies, scarves, etc…

[@6ec6YRFPTcC]

I would rather have a Cadillac XT4 for the same price

[@charlesyoung9980]

The only one that's chicer, more modern and with more charm than the 2025 Mini Countryman S is Sofyan!! (Although, I'm thinking he's not British)

[@darleneelvidge6380]

I like the size of this one. I like front lights but not the mess in back. Moving around so much. I really don’t like they took away the instrument cluster, but like someone said does like a Tesla. Because this same vehicle that is electric starts at over $79,899.00 in Canada just to start. And this one is at $51,999.00 to will over $69,999.00 for the JCW before taxes here in Canada. I heard they’re selling but I’m not buying one way to expensive for my bank account. And in Canada, they’re not giving Rebates for EV anymore here on most EV so not so many people even want any of type of EV here because of just that. And also in different location all over Canada, we just don’t have any or a lot of charging stations at all then you have to charge only at home. And if you live in a condominium or a apartment building they don’t allow any charging what so ever here. So that is totally out. And a lot of people cannot afford to buy any type of houses here because they start at over $ 1 million dollars in Toronto and in other parts of our country and up just to be able to have a EV parked in there driveway here to drive. Most people that have Mini’s are keeping their older ones, or buying used one at least in Toronto, anyways. This nice on the outside but I think they went backwards in their thinking and the style inside of this brand new Mini Countryman S. “They said if not broken then don’t “Fix It”

[@HiiImChris]

Slightly strange you never touched on the steering wheel. Imo its one of the coolest new features

[@robertmunizmuniz9157]

In red it should look great 👍

[@dmack7265]

I think this would make a nice second vehicle.

[@MuradAsifishere67]

Mr bean would probably like this

[@gregj7916]

40/20/40 rear split is excellent.

[@h3e44]

You should do the door close from the outside to. A family friend just got a Grand Cherokee summit pricey af but that door close on the outside BEEBAY not for that price!

[@JeffSpehar-ov1cn]

Need a full review of the Civic Hybrid.

[@andymcpherson4896]

That is one tiny rear wiper and for me not having a gauge cluster in front of me is a total deal breaker. Great colour though.

[@gerry9306]

Settle down Mac, you can adapt pal

[@jefforceone]

When is a mini not a mini anymore just look at the 2025 models

[@adamroberge1201]

One of my friends parents took European delivery of one in Sweden or we ownthis Summer and got it shipped back to the US

[@karacha]

Really good job by BMW here. Love it!

[@HiiImChris]

I like how the ev version of the damn mini has 13 more range than the lexus EV

[@mva6044]

Need to see lease numbers before we can judge if it's competitive...

[@eddieg6436]

Love the design, but I knew 3 people with Minis and all 3 had nothing but problems! …..too bad Lexus, or Acura didn’t copy this with their excellent reliability.

[@mikeharris7261]

I was expecting the price to be higher. Oh yeah it needs black wheels.👍

[@philliprumans753]

not sold on the drivers dash area. I prefer more of a normal display. I think the 24 drivers was better.

[@josephpayton9151]

16:00 noo why did u have to mention the rectangle 😭. I did not see that until u said it. That’ll throw me off so bad

[@DominionAnako-bb7ry]

I only hear about Mini Cooper

[@rmeyer52]

A MINI Countryman will depreciate 52% after 5 years and have a 5 year resale value of $18,995.

[@Lisa-gz1gq]

Why does everyone try to remove the PRNDL and the Temp control buttons. I don’t want to play where’s Waldo with basic functions while I’m driving

[@witsendcottage595]

A doggy window on the rear hatch would make this car a killer!

[@HiiImChris]

Can you do the 25 cooper next, one of my fave cars i cant afford lmao

[@ayayoutuber]

The countryman's engine bay looked much less cramp than the regular mini...which could possibly be cheaper and easier to perform repair instead of every repair need to drop engine or pull loads of crispy plastic parts.

[@geoffreyivie]

20:52 The back of the headrests look like they are 37 inches.

[@davidcamacho3513]

Love the exterior color but that blue to tan interior doesn’t do it for me. Would prefer green to tan. Doesn’t match plus too many total colors - green, blue, tan

[@williamtaylor3091]

Too bad you can’t buy one right now because of the stop sale.

[@kathleencapalbo3508]

What do you mean “stop sale”?

[@Dakotaro]

The front design is somewhat similar to the Suzuki Swift.

[@aranibiswas2124]

Looks like new suzuki swift😂😅

[@karlitoxbro6]

Hace pocos kilómetros por galón !

[@Desertbiker617]

$44k??? I will keep my Lexus ES.

[@re14437]

Yeah….sooooo many people cross-shop a Mini Countryman with a Lexus ES 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@plneky1171]

Lease it as an entry level BMW SUV and you'll be fine. As a Mini, it's nothing special any more.

[@bobloblaw3191]

The interior in fantastic but something is really off with the exterior. I think it's the lack of haunches. The 1st gen had such a stocky bulldog stance

[@Jon-ug3le]

Looks way better than the ugly old one. Well done Mini

[@johnholst]

I feel just the opposite. But to each his own.

[@minienigma]

As for the car itself, Mini lost me when they went with the Tesla style, do-it-all center display... The exterior styling was ok to me, not very appealing, though I love the color....

[@johnholst]

Of course, looks are subjective. But to me, this is such a step down from the last gen. It's ugly and cheap looking. BMW applying it's polarizing looks to Minis now?

[@TalismanPHX]

Its a Mini station wagon. A Mini is not very small anymore. 😮😢

[@godofdun]

Hmmm, overall I like it.

[@wackit6756]

I test drove this car and was surprised at the reasonable price considering the quality of the materials, the vault like solidness, the performance and feeling like I was driving something 10 years in the future. But it was cumbersome to drive through the parking lots and around corners it felt huge (even though it isn’t ) I was never quite sure where the four corners were, not something that you could whip around in the city. 🫤

[@DRayL_]

For a change, an interior on a modern car that isn't boring and overdone. If I had one of these, I'd go with Timeless as it looks so classy. But, ultimately, I won't be getting one. Too much $$$ for me. Having said what I did about the design of the interior, I was speaking of the dash. I will have to say that I do not like the blue "fading" into the tan. I would rather it all be the same color.

[@KausarKhan-KKK]

Build on the same platform as X1 and X2 may be more than 10 times? Why so much content repetition

[@anthonyc3453]

“As you can see” x100 “You guys” x100

[@nathanjeffery5470]

Looks ugly especially compared to the last model

[@nathanjeffery5470]

Interior looks nice though

[@iwearleatherjackets1]

We need to stop calling hatchbacks with a 10mm lift an "SUV."

[@jet_black]

Should have kept the original headlight design. 😢

[@Stumble1b4]

Mini in name. Put this 241 hp in a real mini. Could be fun.

[@ivanpen8264]

This is the engine that I would like to have in my beautiful Mitsubishi Outlander. Don't like this MINI, only the engine.

[@seancarroll4376]

Anyone else find the blue interior clashes with the green and tan leather? I get the green and tan combo but you add the blue and🤢

[@mcribbs]

I had the misfortune of getting this car as a loaner from the dealership today. It's utter garbage. Drives like a whale, zero engine noise, interior has minimal mechanical switches, and everything about it just feels cheap. They ripped out everything that makes a MINI a MINI and we're left with a soulless monstrosity.

[@marsEv310]

Like Ben the Mini keeps getting bigger every few years 😂

[@Antsir12]

Just plain homely.

[@vinyfiny]

All those hard plastics in the interior don't really align with the price.

Payment? Just buy it without a loan. Paying interest is dumb.

The scale is messing with my brain.

Insane in the membrane

Super.. As in super ugly. Wouldn't drive it even if someone gave it me.

[@MugatuJag]

Beautiful Car, I would definitely take this over a Rav 4. The last generation Countryman S All4 came with the 8 speed Aisin transmission, not the ZF. The Aisin which is pretty much the same as the camry or RAV is much slower shifting than the ZF, but decent

ITS LOOKS LIKE NISSAN GTR WAGON LOL

[@keltonhines6076]

So a X1

[@minienigma]

Um... "GLOW UP MINI"? LOL. OK review, but a lot of repetition -- like the lack of ventilated seats that was mentioned no less than on 3 occasions, the cycling through of infotainment themes, etc.
