MINI has officially unveiled the 2017 MINI Countryman plug-in hybrid. Its real name is MINI Cooper S E Countryman ALL4 and borrows the same propulsion system seen in the BMW 225xe model.
We are talking about a 1.5 liter three cylinder engine that can deliver 134 horsepower and about an 88 horsepower electric motor. The propulsion system offers a total of 224 horsepower and 385 Nm peak of torque. As a result, the MINI Cooper S E Countryman ALL4 can run from stand still to 100 km/h in just 6.5 seconds, while the fuel consumption is clocked at 2,1 liters per 100 kilometers.
The 2017 MINI Cooper S E Countryman ALL4 comes with three different driving modes.
