I love my mini cooper countryman. It has been super reliable. It is such a fun car to drive and its super comfortable. There are a lot of great qualities about this car. The technology inside the newer ones are great and easy to use. The countryman offers a great amount of space for packing the car up and people being comfortable.

Best car that is safe to drive and provide a great drive.
It is a small suv with lots of power. Seats 5 fully load with camera, heated seats, navigation, phone attachments. Service package for oil, brakes, engine services. Greatest gas mileage. Has great power, performance, leather seats, larger storage space.

Mini with two babies everyday.
Very reliable. I like how both of my babies fit (two car seats) comfortably. I also like how it is small but enough room to handle everyday with two babies. I do have to say I have to fill up a lot more often than I did with my civic but like my cooper more than civic in many ways.

Love my mini! Fun to drive and sporty.
Never had a problem! Love my car! Reliable and comfortable. Lusaka be he heated seats and sunroof. Car is responsive and fun to drive. The hatch holds plenty of groceries. Has good gas mileage. I get a lot of compliments on the car and would definitely buy again.

A fully functioning sport and outdoors vehicle
The countryman runs like a champ, it's innovative BMW style steering makes it one of the smoothest driving vehicles. Great for speed along with quick and sudden stops. In over a year with it my only collision was a fender bender in a parking lot- the negative part of having such a small car is when a large one bumps into you, it leaves a large dent. Mini's service is quick and reliable, returning my vehicle to me quickly.

New mini is a five star car.
It is a great car, just had to get the battery replaced ahead of schedule but no other issues. Love the interior style, great for short drives or long trips equally. It gets good mileage but gas adds up kind of quickly. Would definitely buy another model from the same brand.

Mini cooper vs mini countryman all 4.
I drove a regular mini cooper prior to purchasing the countryman all4. I like how my first mini took curves and was a quick little thing. The countryman has power but it is a larger vehicle. So I prefer the size of the smaller mini but the all wheel drive of the countryman. Other than that, the car is good.

Great little car with lots of room
Very comfortable. Easy to drive. Very reliable. Apple carplay option. Lots of room. Seating for 5 people. Drives like a BMW but without the hefty BMW price tag. Super cute body contour. Great sound system with lots of speakers. Great air conditioning system

Small but a very cool vehicle to drive.
Small vehicle but with enough space for passengers. The seats are very comfortable, the safety features are very helpful so you feel safe while driving. Easy to find a park space, with nice exterior colors to choose from. Highly recommended for a family of four (4).

Car Incineration
Not a freaking chance in hell! I had my 2018 Cooper S Countryman in for scheduled service and told them about an engine issue: hesitation and lagging. They told me the car was "fine" after having it for 4 days. On my way back to Kamloops the engine caught fire. No warning lights...indications of overheating...nothing. If I had not pulled over there would've been a serious &/or deadly accident. BMW is refusing any and all responsibility for any manufacturers defects or service technician issues! Do not trust this company! Their claims of "valuing customer loyalty" is load of c**p. Someone is going to die because these muppets won't take ownership of their merchandise.

2018 mini phev--cute and fun but low battery range.
The car is fun to drive and is cute. There is ample space for a weekend trip. Gas mileage is fair at 38 mpg. I actually have the phev which is not listed. I do not feel that the battery range is worth the extra cost. Problems have been minor--cup holder issue, paint peeled on the chrome around the headlights and there was a loose part along the passenger door. Dealer replaced/fixed under warranty. Overall rating good.

I love my mini: good things in small packages.
I really like my mini. The car is very comfortable and a pleasure to drive. It is very luxurious with nice features like heated seats, good sound system, and really pretty adjustable lights. The car is small but it does not feel as small as you would expect it to.

The Mini Countryman is made by BMW. Most people do not know this fact.
My Mini Countryman is the best car I have ever had. It drives like a dream, so smooth! I love the features it has, like the sunroof. It is the perfect size to get enough wind and sun. It doesn't blow your hair everywhere. It is so easy to maneuver. Feels like you are gliding down the street.

Love the mini - this has been a great economic fun cars to drive.
It has a roomy, high-quality cabin and playful handling, along with one of the highest predicted reliability when I was comparing others in its class. However, it has less cargo space and a weaker base engine than most competitors. The cost was awesome compared to other comparable cars. I love the leg room in the front and the back. However, the front seat seems a little confining to my son who is over six foot 3 inches tall. I also have to use premium fuel or it seems to not have the get up and go when I need it. The biggest plus is the fuel economy. I have saved so much money since I purchased this car. Drive is quiet, transmission is smooth, acceleration is excellent only when I am using the premium fuel. I also love having access to a 120 v plug in. The road noise seems very minimal compared to other cars this size when I was test driving before buying. Easy to use multimedia system. I was disappointed that the active driving assistant was only available with the fully loaded package and this was way out of my budget. I love the leather interior and it is easy to clean. A con I did not know that the battery was mounted below the rear seat it was a pain for me to access. I also had some problems with spark plugs and had to have those replaced recently. The cost was not bad. I have had a lot of fun driving this car.

Cute and sporty with lots of room.
Looks great drives smooth small and has lots of legroom also can park any place because so small and has great windows lots of doors and can seats lots of people, pets and stuff. Can get in and out of traffic fast because so small.

I absolutely love my car.
It is the most comfortable thing ever. The interior is obviously stunning. I really appreciate the tech features like the touch screen pad and the camera in the back. It has never failed me when I am driving long distances and it accelerates incredibly quickly while having fantastic brakes.

Fun and sporty and reliable.
I like the mini cooper countryman because it is high quality and is fun to drive. It has a unique look as well. It is sporty and fun and a crowd pleaser. The price can be high but it is a mid luxury car that is worth it. I would recommend this car. It is easy and fun.

The way it hugs the rode. I also love the gas mileage. I love the sporty look, and the fact that I can fit my golf clubs.

The sporty mini countryman.
It still has plenty of power after driving the two- door coopers. It is very roomy for a mini. I like the changes in the 2018. Like other mini's & sporty cars there is some road noise and you do feel the road but it's so much fun to drive. They are reliable cars. This is my second mini.

Overall happy - driver profiles could use improvement.
The personalized setting for drivers 1 and 2 do not always work correctly, causing arguments between my husband and I. The iPhone connection is ok, but I would rather view the map directly on the phone instead of the screen in the car. The car overrides this ability when connecting to apple CarPlay. Otherwise, there are no issues and we love the car.

Great on gas and a very reliable car.
Love it because it is reliable, good on gas especially when on minimalism mode and drives smoothly. Also like the start button feature to start the engine and it is a plus that it comes with a sunroof.

Love my mini cooper countryman.
Love the feel and quality of the car. It is a smooth ride and it is bigger inside than it seems on the outside looking in. It is stylish and efficient. Only issue is I wish they came standard with apple CarPlay and a wireless phone dock. Otherwise would get another one when the lease is up.

There is a lot more space that it looks. Even though mini is known for being smaller. It has a lot of room for passengers and in the trunk
I love the way my car handles. It is a fun car to drive but also very safe. It is much bigger than it appears to be. Also, it fits my personality

Mini Cooper countryman is spacious
Very nice leather interior. Nice horsepower. Hasn't broken down any over the year we have had it. Drives very well and has nice manufacturer tires. I have a black Mini Cooper countryman and I have added More horsepower so it's very fast and still drives very well. The seats have buttons to make them go forward or backward and then make the seat go up or down. It has lots of legroom in the front and in the back. Very spacious trunk and fits a lot. Has held up well.

It is a compact SUV or crossover SUV and because of the plug-in hybrid model, it gets better gas mileage than other vehicles in its class. It is also in line in price with lower car makers because of Tax Incentives for Energy
My car is a Plug-In Hybrid vehicle which allows me to increase my gas mileage, especially with city driving. It is also a Mini, which is owned by BMW so I do not have to sacrifice luxury or speed. I also love my features such as my lift gate

A review of the mini countryman.
Overall I am happy with the car. I like the size and it gets relatively good mileage. I do wish it was compatible with apple CarPlay and that the technology system was a little better in general. I am planning to get a newer model of this same car in the future.

Could be used as an advertisement we carry so much in it for long trips.
Much larger than expected. Very smooth. Stop feature at red lights. Good gas mileage. Comfortable seats that tilt in all directions. I also like that the back hatch opens be simply waving your foot and that you can drive without the key in ignition. Well worth the price.

1. Spacious for a small car. 2 fun to drive. 3 great ac.
Pretty good car. It is spacious. Once you fold the back seats, there is plenty space to store things when you go out for shopping. Ac is pretty effective. It cool down fast and heat up fast too. But sometime it has pressure uneven problem on the tires when the weather temperature changes.

PHEV is a fun little guy!
The mini PHEV has been very reliable and is fun to drive. It is surprisingly roomy and holds plenty for road trips. I would not recommend the PHEV as the distance on pure electric is only about 12-14 miles. The average mpg is about 37-38 and I charge it every night. When I purchased it, I was expecting more like 50-60 mpg. If you live close to work and do not drive much, this would improve significantly of course. Overall, fun little car.

Great mini cooper countryman for fun drive.
The mini cooper countryman is a fun sporty compact SUV to drive. However, it is not the most fuel efficient car. Also, you can only have synthetic oil changes which is more expensive. Parts are also more expensive. Also, they are not as many mechanics that have parts in stock when you need it.

The seats are quite comfortable, and they pull out in the front to.
I have leased and owned 3 mini coopers throughout the years. The countryman is my second favorite choice out of the four door and the two door. It is definitely faster than the other two, and it has not had very many problems which has been nice. Overall I would recommend the countryman to others.

Love my Mini Cooper countryman. Love the mini brand. I also have a mini cooper s that I have had since 2006, bought new, only has 87000 and love the car. They are fun to drive. I am hooked on mini coopers. Very reliable and safe car.

Fun driving. Handles well on the road & curves. Great acceleration & gas mileage.
Love my mini countryman. It is cute and fun to drive. It handles great, and is much more roomy than expected. My family of 4 - consisting of two teenage boys - comfortably fit in the car. The leather seats are comfortable. Maintenance is somewhat expensive, but worth it in my opinion.

Best car in the Bay Area and for any single woman that likes to drive
I have no problems at all with this car. I have had it one year and it's amazing. I would recommend this car for anyone living in the Bay Area and if you enjoy driving up to Lake Tahoe or Los Angeles . It is also great for a small family with small children since it's a four door

My mini countryman feels like a small car while driving but with the SUV size.
I love the unique features of the countryman. It seems more personalized while having a SUV type vehicle. It has a lot of space for a 'smaller' vehicle and can fit four adults plus a dog comfortably. It drives like a small car with no blind spots.

Same reliable countryman with more space and technology than previous models.
It is more spacious than older models. It has helpful front and back sensors, a back camera, and a large touchscreen. Apple CarPlay connectivity is fantastic. There is more storage than the previous model in the front seats, on the sides of the door and in-between seats. Trunk also has more space.

Smooth rider. The countryman, is smooth in almost all terrain.
Sometimes the electricity has gone a bit wonky. Had to trade in 2016 model because service could not figure it out. Newer one from 2018 is better though a few glitches have occurred where the electricity, perhaps the fuse has gone off. Service could not figure it out and waiting to see if it will happen again.
