5 reasons to buy the 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman

1. Peppy acceleration 

If you like to feel like a race car driver, choose a 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman with the available 1.6L turbocharged four-cylinder engine. That engine produces 181 hp on the Cooper S trim, and 208 hp on the John Cooper Works trim. The turbocharged engine gives strong acceleration that pairs nicely with the great handling on the 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman.  

2. Versatile cargo solutions 

The 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman is a car that’s small enough for city driving, but that can also handle weekends away for mountain biking or a seaside kayak. The 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman has 16.5 cu-ft of cargo space when the rear seats are up and more than 42 cu-ft when they’re folded flat. Standard roof rails and rear bike rack mountings supplement the interior cargo space.  

3. All wheel drive 

Whether you live in a snowy climate or just visit one for winter skiing, you’ll appreciate the AWD that’s available on the 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman. AWD is standard on the Cooper S All4 and John Cooper Works trim. Standard heated mirrors and available heated seats add to your comfort during the colder months.  

4. Family friendly 

You have kids, but have refused to give up your personal style preferences. The 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman allows you to bring both together thanks to a back seat that is generous for a subcompact SUV. Nearly 34 inches of legroom in the back can accommodate teens or toddlers in car seats.  

5. Customizable 

With the 2015 Mini Cooper Countryman, you can find a car that’s exactly right for you. Love music? Choose a Countryman with the available 10-speaker Harman Kardon® audio system. Want to up your style? Opt for the available rear spoiler, racing stripes, or various exterior graphics.
