    NEW 2024 Mini Countryman Review | First Drive | Honest Review
    Welcome to my first look review of the New 2024 Mini Countryman C 1.5l mild hybrid petrol filmed at the UK media launch.
    This Mini SUV packs a serious punch with a superb circular OLED infotainment screen, new interior styling and a roomier and more fun experience than with the outgoing Countryman.

    For those of you complaining about the size, think of MINI as a brand instead of a product. As far as "MINI-ness" is concerned, I think they absolutely 100% knocked it out of the park. It's not mini...it's a MINI.

    Drove one last Sunday , the tech on that car is something else , as a countryman owner I think the next gen has definitely moved on , the autonomous driving up to 30 mph was a great experience. Looks like we will end up with our 7th mini

      @@DefinitelyNotAGuru considering the tech and it’s bigger plus it’s the next generation, our countryman exclusive is only 9 months old and when we build the new one up , it’s only £1000 more but with even more spec as standard , so mini have done well with the pricing ,

    I drove one in Virginia Beach had gone over a few slow bumps on the road. I didn't expect the jar suspension too tight? Gentle steering wheel handling very easy to make turns. The dashboard looks striking but how does one keep it clean? This was my first experience with the Mini countryman -- quite charming!

    Great review. Waiting for my S version to arrive ftom the factory. The previous 3 cylinder Countryman was severly underpowered, but it seems like the new engines are just fine.
    Have you drive a similar X1? If so, how would they compare?

    • @DefinitelyNotAGuru

    I love LOVE the big, round screen, but hopefully MINI had the foresight to equip it with a polarizer or some other form of UV protection. Or, hopefully they have deal worked out where you get a free replacement every 1 or 2 years. Sunlight and heat will absolutely destroy an OLED display
