MINI Philippines launches the new era of the Cooper and Countryman

MINI continues to reinvent itself while honoring its heritage, showcasing its premium status and innovation with the launch of two key models—the New MINI Cooper and the New MINI Countryman. Both models, presented for the first time with all-electric drivetrain versions.

The New MINI Family, according to Willy Tee Ten, Chairman of Autohub Group of Companies, blends MINI’s signature creative design with modern advancements. This marks a significant milestone for MINI in the Philippines as it embarks on a new era, offering both electric and petrol options in these redesigned models.

Both vehicles carry forward MINI’s tradition of compact, charismatic design while also introducing the new “Charismatic Simplicity” language. Their minimalist yet dynamic exteriors feature a recognizable octagonal front grille, flush door handles, and seamless rear light designs, giving them a modern edge.

Inside, the redesigned dashboard, cutting-edge OLED display, and use of eco-friendly materials, such as recycled polyester, bring a fresh, warm, and immersive experience to MINI’s fans. The introduction of the MINI Operating System 9, a platform developed by BMW Group, highlights the brand’s push towards digitalization, allowing drivers to interact intuitively with the car using voice commands and touch.

The New All-Electric MINI Cooper delivers an enhanced go-kart feel with its 160 kW motor and a range of up to 402 kilometers. The New MINI Countryman, featuring all-wheel drive and a 230 kW motor, promises a powerful and adventurous driving experience with a range of up to 433 kilometers.

The latest lineup of MINI vehicles offers a range of options for car enthusiasts in the Philippines.
