MINI Countryman
MINI's “SUV” drops its base version and FWD altogether, keeping only the uppity 181-horsepower S and 208-horsepower JCW (John Cooper Works) versions, both having the All4 all-wheel drive system as standard. Either a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission is bolted to a turbocharged 1.6-litre engine. Refreshed last year, the Countryman received a limited-edition Park Lane S model and should move in the coming years to the larger Clubman platform.
