A slightly inflated price relative to the equipment included in this car.

Comfortable, but feels a bit firmer (over small bumps) than the Q5. You can tell the car has some heft!! The electric power — 388 PS / 285 kW BEV — is incredible. The battery drops pretty quickly if you push the beast a little. The advertised 600 km range is generous on paper; expect more like 500, or even 450 in winter. The onboard technology is surprising and pushed to the extreme. After trying it, it's hard to go back to a non-electric model.

MINI Countryman

The MINI Countryman turns the cheeky charm of a classic MINI into a proper all-rounder, blending playful styling with surprisingly usable space for everyday life. It still grins at city lights but will happily tackle muddy lanes, perfect for buyers who want character without sacrificing practicality.

Beautiful design, carefully finished inside, large display, very comfortable ride with the automatic gearbox, a bit cramped in the back, fairly spacious boot.
