2017 MINI Countryman Plug-In Hybrid Teased
Follow us on
Highlights
- The Countryman plug-in hybrid is likely to carry the 'E' suffix
- The car will be launched in 2017
- The Countryman plug-in hybrid will see changes made to the cabin
The Countryman will always start in electric mode and is going to reach speeds of up to 125Km/h without using any fuel at all. The plug-in hybrid version of the Countryman might share the same hardware as the BMW 225xe and hence might be quite the pocket rocket.
Mini Starts Testing The Countryman Plug-in Hybrid
On the design front, the plug-in hybrid Countryman looks similar to the other versions of the range, with the exception of the additional cap mounted on the front-left fender.

Mini Countryman Plug-in Hybrid Cabin
For those wondering if this is the first electrified model from the Mini stable, well you're wrong and you've probably forgotten the Mini E which was part of project BMW i. Its last phase of development actually saw the birth of the BMW i3 and there were 500 units built and offered with a one-year lease to select private and corporate customers. Clearly the plug-in hybrid version takes some notes from here too but we wait for Mini to tell us more.
