2026 Mini Countryman C: Everything to know before buying it
The upcoming Countryman C will be launched soon in India. Based on the BMW X1’s platform, the Countryman C will be the most affordable variant in the Countryman series. Mini will locally assemble it at BMW Group’s plant in Chennai, which shall allow a lower price than the JCW ALL4 variant.
So, what sets the ‘C’ apart from the JCW ALL4? The biggest difference on the Countryman C is its downsized 1.5-litre three-cylinder turbo petrol engine that is borrowed from the BMW X1. It is a front-wheel drive engine that makes 136 bhp and 230 Nm, while it comes paired to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox.
The exterior design of the Countryman C is inspired by the Mini Countryman Electric, but the changes include a new grille, body coloured door handles, new dual-tone alloy wheels, black mirrors, black roof, and black door pillars. Mini is offering it in five exterior paint options: Smokey Green, Slate Blue, Nanuq White, British Racing Green, and Chilli Red.
On the inside, it packs a spacious design with a minimalist dashboard. The key features include an HUD (head-up display), a 9-inch OLED oval infotainment console, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a wireless charging pad, ambient lighting, a sunroof, and an ADAS safety suite.
Since it will be an affordable and locally assembled model, we believe it will be priced considerably lower than the Countryman JCW ALL4, which is priced at Rs 64.90 lakh.
