2024 MINI Countryman

MINI Countryman Cooper S ALL4 Wagon Exterior Shown

Good

The 2024 Countryman has always been Mini's answer to those who love the fun and spunky nature of the brand but need more practicality. Thanks to its quick acceleration and playful handling, the Countryman absolutely remains true to the badge. However, limited practicality and a dated interior limit the Countryman's appeal to a broader audience.

Overview

Written by automotive expert Christian Wardlaw

Updated: 5/8/2026

By definition, Minis are small. It's right there in the name. Among Minis, the 2024 Countryman crossover SUV is the biggest. You might even call its size "surprising," like Mini does. Offering about 47 cubic feet of maximum cargo space, the Countryman aims to provide more comfort and utility than any other Mini on the market. But in the grand scheme of things, it's still a small SUV. And, the 2024 Mini Countryman marks the end of the second-generation model, as a new, even larger third-generation Countryman is set to debut in 2025.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

Driven, tested, rated by automotive expert Kurt Niebuhr

Good

7.8

out of 10

We drove the 2024 MINI Countryman on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Performance

8/10

How does the Countryman drive? The Cooper S version, which is what we tested, accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in a respectable 7.1 seconds. Our biggest gripe with the Countryman's acceleration is the engine's lazy response when pulling away from a stop. Once the Mini is underway, the turbocharged engine is punchy around town and helpful getting up to highway speeds quickly. The Countryman's brakes provide solid stopping power for panic braking but are occasionally grabby and abrupt in slow-moving traffic.

As you would expect, the best part of the Mini Countryman's driving experience is in the way it handles a twisty road. The steering is accurate and gives you a decent feel of the road. Overall, the Countryman is fun and can easily cruise down a back road quicker than most everything else in the class.

Comfort

8/10

How comfortable is the Countryman? If you're at all familiar with the Mini driving experience, the somewhat firm ride will likely go unnoticed. But buyers new to a Mini might find the ride bordering on stiff. The front seats feel firm and a bit confining at first but ultimately offer good support over longer distances.

Road noise is commendably low, but the Countryman's near vertical windshield and frameless side windows create noticeable wind noise. Engine and exhaust sounds are nicely subdued and only enter the cabin when you're driving more aggressively.

Interior

7.5/10

How’s the interior? The overall layout of the Countryman's interior has not changed in quite some time. It's distinctive-looking, including the limited instrumentation and chrome toggle switches. The controls are easy to figure out, and the knob for the infotainment system helps you quickly navigate most of the high-level functions.

Thanks to the Countryman's raised ride height, getting in and out is fairly easy and is helped by the short-length front and rear doors. Inside, all passengers will enjoy more room than you might expect given the profile view of the Countryman. Only rear visibility falls a bit short of what we expect in this class.

Technology

7.5/10

How’s the tech? The Countryman's long and narrow infotainment screen (a sacrifice to the Mini's interior style) looks a bit small alongside some of its competition, but crisp graphics and good contrast make it easy to read. Far less impressive is the lack of Android Auto compatibility. Apple CarPlay is here, but Android phone users will need to make do with a simple Bluetooth connection. On the flip side, the Harman Kardon audio system makes good use of the Countryman's cabin and provides clean sound with ample power.

Front and rear seat passengers should bring USB-C cables or adapters because the Countryman uses them exclusively, with two ports in the front and two in the back.

Storage

7/10

How’s the storage? The Countryman might be the biggest Mini but it's far from the most practical vehicle in its class. With a modest 17.6 cubic feet of cargo capacity, the Countryman trails competitors such as the Audi Q3 (23.7 cubes) and Mercedes-Benz GLB (22 cubes). The Mini does have 40/20/40-split folding rear seats, but the seatback releases are only accessible from the rear passenger doors, not the cargo area.

Up front, the Countryman offers a fair amount of nicely sized storage bins. Sunglasses, phones and other small items will all have a home. The door pockets aren't cavernous but add to the practicality.

Fuel Economy

8/10

How’s the fuel economy? We tested the Mini Countryman S with all-wheel drive, and that model gets an EPA-estimated 26 mpg combined. That's slightly better than the class average. Over our real-world mixed-driving evaluation route, our test vehicle managed a 28.8 mpg, indicating the EPA's estimates are accurate. Premium fuel is recommended.

Value

8/10

Is the Countryman a good value? The Countryman is typically priced higher than small SUVs such as the Chevy Trailblazer and Mazda CX-30 but less than luxury models like the Audi Q3 and Mercedes-Benz GLB. It's an interesting middle ground, and overall we think it's worth the price considering the car's performance and personality.

Bumper-to-bumper and powertrain warranties are for four years/50,000 miles, which is standard for the class. Roadside assistance lasts four years with unlimited miles, and free maintenance is a helpful three years/36,000 miles.

Wildcard

8.5/10

If you prioritize driving fun and like Mini's distinctive styling, the Countryman will not disappoint. Even with the Countryman's extra size and heft, it remains true to the sporty, fun nature of other Minis. The Countryman is always up for a good time, and you'll likely wind up driving up on-ramps and down good roads a little quicker without even noticing. It might not be the most practical vehicle in this class, but it's fun and engaging.

2024 MINI Countryman trim level differences

The 2024 Mini Countryman is a small SUV available with Cooper, Cooper S and John Cooper Works model designations. In addition, three trim level packages are available: Classic, Signature and Iconic. Below, we'll break everything down for you because it does get confusing. Compare the 2024 MINI Countryman trim levels in-depth.

Which Countryman trim does Edmunds recommend?

We think the best way to blend value, performance and the ability to custom-tailor this Mini is by choosing the Cooper S with the Signature trim package. The Cooper S' engine is a worthy upgrade over the base Cooper's, and the Signature gets you a suitable amount of features for the money.

Competitors to consider

Mini positions itself as a premium brand in the same thin market layer between mass-market and luxury where Buick, GMC, Jeep, Mazda and Volkswagen roam. That dictates a competitive set that includes the Buick Encore GX, Jeep Compass, Mazda CX-30 and Volkswagen Taos. Each offers a lower base price and a more powerful standard engine, but only the Mazda can match the Mini for perceived quality. And none of these rivals offers the range of appearance options or maximum outright performance of a Countryman.

Edmunds spotlight: Is a Mini Countryman worth the money?

Mini charges a premium for the Countryman, and in exchange, you get BMW engineering (Mini is owned by BMW), quality interior materials, the ability to customize the cosmetics, and complimentary scheduled maintenance for three years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. But mainly, you're paying a premium for the Countryman's peppy personality. Inside and out, it looks like nothing else but a Mini. Upgrade to the Cooper S or John Cooper Works, and performance is also a piece of the puzzle. If you strongly value such attributes, then, yes, an argument can be made that a Countryman is worth the money. But to be sure, check out the Edmunds testing team's Expert Rating of this expressive little SUV.
