2024 Mini Countryman C Classic review
The new Mini Countryman is a bigger, better equipped SUV than before. It's the right blend of practical and fun, although it's not perfect.

Hits
- Punchier than every similarly-priced rival
- Big car feel in a compact package
- Well featured, no cost options
Misses
- Range is decent but efficiency is not
- 20-inch rims make for a firm urban ride
- XC40 is the more practical choice
