2022 MINI Countryman Review

With the dynamic crossover allure of the 2022 MINI Countryman, there’s no telling where you’ll end up. This review gives Rockland, Plymouth, and Weymouth, Massachusetts, shoppers a taste of what they can expect. At MINI of Rockland, you’ll discover what makes this car unique and a trip to drive.
The Space That’s Inside Counts
It’s what’s inside that counts, and the MINI Countryman can deliver. Your upholstery can consist of leatherette or several different types of leather if you upgrade.
Match that style with an available leather-wrapped steering wheel that warms up your fingers with heat. Eight ways of adjustability can propel you into the proper position in front and give you available heat to boot.
Here’s more about the inside dimensions:
| Dimensions | Front Seat | Rear Seat |
| Headroom | 40.5 inches | 38.3 inches |
| Legroom | 40.4 inches | 37.6 inches |
| Shoulder Room | 54.8 inches | 54 inches |
A panoramic moonroof spans the ceiling of your MINI, so you can share a starry night or sunshine-filled day. You’re afforded 17.6 cubic feet of cargo space in the trunk to store your packages or flowers for your garden.
By opting for the Convenience Package, you’ll even get a dedicated picnic cushion. This can serve as a welcome spot to sit when you’re taking in a scenic view or your child’s soccer game.
Technology That Matters
The dashboard technology matters because it keeps you connected and entertained. Plus, it can lead you toward the destination where you’re heading.
A round digital instrument cluster appears behind the wheel with another circular central instrument display in the middle. The available 8.8-inch Touchscreen Navigation Plus media display gives you access to your phone through Apple CarPlay® or to the optional 12-speaker Harman Kardon® Premium Sound System. That way, you can stay in touch with loved ones, as well as listen to a diverse array of your own music.
Engines for the Best of Both Worlds
The MINI Countryman provides three solid engine choices, including a hybrid version. In the introductory trim, you’ll have the 1.5L TwinPower Turbo 3-cylinder engine that generates 134 horsepower with 162 lb-ft of torque.
For more demanding drivers, the available 2.0L TwinPower Turbo 4-cylinder engine can generate 189 horsepower with 206 lb-ft of torque. When you add Valvetronic direct-injection to the engine, it generates 301 horsepower with 331 lb-ft of torque. This spirited machine livens up the drive with its signature go-kart performance.
If you like the best of both worlds, the hybrid MINI pairs the 1.5L TwinPower Turbo 3-cylinder engine with an eDrive electric motor. With this underneath the hood, your MINI generates 221 horsepower with 284 lb-ft of torque.
As you weave in and out of city streets or hurdle through rural roads, the optional ALL4 all-wheel drive can provide you with more than sufficient traction. This can work in tandem with either the 7-speed Dual Clutch transmission or the available 8-speed Steptronic sport automatic transmission for an easy ride wherever you go.
