Engine power and kerb weight are registration-weighted averages across the 28 EU/EEA countries that registered the Mini Countryman in 2025 (32,118 cars). Source: EEA CO₂ monitoring (CC BY 4.0).

Engine power is the type-approved engine power (EEA field Ep). For hybrids and plug-in hybrids it is the power of the combustion engine, not the system power, and for electric cars it can differ from the peak power the manufacturer advertises.

Power by engine variant (Norway)

2,099 Mini Countryman cars registered for the first time in Norway in 2019–2025, by drivetrain and type-approved engine power. The EEA data has no trim names, so variants are told apart by power.

Plus 5 variants with fewer than 10 cars (24 cars in total).

WLTP range by version

Type-approved WLTP range of the electric versions of the Mini Countryman, as recorded for each car in the Dutch vehicle register (RDW). The table shows the median; the spread is where 80% of the cars fall.

WLTP is the test cycle of EU type approval, so the same version carries the same figure across the EU/EEA. Power is the net maximum electric power from the same register. Versions with fewer than 20 cars are left out. Source: Open Data RDW (Netherlands, CC0).
