MINI Countryman Lease Deals

The MINI Countryman is the biggest car MINI makes: a five-seat, five-door family SUV about 4.44 metres long, sold in petrol and fully electric forms. It's the current, third-generation car, on sale in this shape since 2024.

It suits buyers who want family-SUV space without a car that looks like everything else on the school run. Boot space runs from 450 to 505 litres depending on version, and braked towing reaches 2,000 kg on the right petrol model.

One body style, two powertrains and fourteen versions is the whole choice. Below we explain what separates them, and the live deals sit under this copy.

About the MINI Countryman

The Countryman is MINI's family SUV, sitting above the smaller cars in the range and offering five seats, a boot of 450 to 505 litres depending on version, and a three-year, unlimited-mileage manufacturer warranty.

Reviewers consistently make the same two points: it's grown a lot, and it still drives with more character than most rivals in this class. The circular central display and pared-back dashboard draw praise for design, though some testers find the touchscreen climate controls fiddly on the move.

Practicality is the other headline. Road testers note rear space is genuinely adult-sized now, and the Countryman scored five stars at Euro NCAP, with 83% for adult occupant protection and 87% for child occupants.

Why lease a MINI Countryman?

Because every Countryman arrives well equipped. Built-in navigation, a digital instrument cluster, LED headlights, front and rear parking sensors, keyless entry and start, a hands-free tailgate, air conditioning, roof rails and rain-sensing wipers are standard across the range.

On the safety side, the five-star Euro NCAP result included 81% for vulnerable road users and 79% for safety assist. An electric parking brake, automatic headlights and a tyre repair kit in place of a spare are standard too.

From a leasing point of view, the questions we get asked most about this car are mileage and charging. Servicing falls every 24 months, and the electric versions carry an eight-year or 100,000-mile battery warranty, which outlasts most contract terms.

Which Countryman powertrain is right for me?

There are two: petrol and electric. Both are automatic, both offer front- or all-wheel drive, and the decision comes down to whether you can charge at home or at work.

Image for illustration purposes only. The actual vehicle and specification may differ.

Petrol

Petrol Countrymans run from 168 bhp to 296 bhp through a seven-speed automatic, with front- or all-wheel drive. Official economy reaches up to 47.9 mpg, and braked towing goes up to 2,000 kg. The sensible pick if charging isn't practical.

Electric

The Electric uses a 66.5 kWh battery (64.6 kWh usable) with 201 to 309 bhp and a WLTP range of up to 307 miles. Charging peaks at 130 kW, giving 10-80% in 29 minutes on the best version, or 6.5 hours at 11 kW at home.

Which Countryman trim should I choose?

Most trims move from Classic to Exclusive to Sport within each powertrain, with an extra Monochrome trim on the Electric range, and differences include wheels, upholstery and comfort kit, plus — for S and SE versions — extra power and all-wheel drive.

Image for illustration purposes only. The actual vehicle and specification may differ.

C Classic

The entry petrol Countryman, with 168 bhp, front-wheel drive and 17-inch Profile Spoke alloys. Standard kit covers LED headlights, the MINI navigation system, a heated steering wheel, driver camera system, keyless go and a powered tailgate. A fixed towbar is available as an option.

The C Classic is currently available from £359.36 a month.

C Exclusive

Same 168 bhp front-wheel-drive mechanicals, moving up to 18-inch Asteroid Spoke alloys and adding Vescin synthetic leather upholstery plus front sports seats. A fixed towbar remains an option.

The C Exclusive is currently available from £391.56 a month. Against the C Classic, that is currently £32.20/mo more expensive.

C Sport

Adds adaptive suspension, which lets the dampers adjust to the road surface, and 19-inch JCW Runway Spoke alloys. Worth having if you want the firmer, keener side of the Countryman's character without changing engine.

The C Sport is currently available from £403.86 a month. Against the C Exclusive, that is currently £12.30/mo more expensive.

E Classic

The entry Electric, with 201 bhp, front-wheel drive and 17-inch Profile Spoke alloys. Compared with the entry petrol car it adds Keyless Go. A fixed towbar is an option here too.

The E Classic is currently available from £334.73 a month.

Monochrome

An Electric version on 18-inch Asteroid Spoke alloys with cloth upholstery, adding a wireless charging tray, the MINI head-up display, heated front seats and the start/stop toggle with keyless go.

The Monochrome is currently available from £339.24 a month. Against the E Classic, that is currently £4.51/mo more expensive.

S Classic

The 215 bhp all-wheel-drive petrol car on 17-inch Profile Spoke alloys, adding LED headlights with adaptable light signatures, wireless charging, head-up display, heated front seats, automatic parking assist and power-folding mirrors.

The S Classic is currently available from £435.10 a month. Against the C Sport, that is currently £31.24/mo more expensive.

E Exclusive

Electric with 201 bhp and front-wheel drive on 18-inch Asteroid Spoke alloys, adding Vescin synthetic leather, a heated steering wheel, Keyless Go and front sports seats. Probably the best-balanced Electric for most drivers.

The E Exclusive is currently available from £366.22 a month. Against the Monochrome, that is currently £26.98/mo more expensive.

E Sport

The 201 bhp Electric on 19-inch JCW Runway Spoke alloys with front sports seats. The bigger wheels look the part, though bear in mind that electric range figures vary by version.

The E Sport is currently available from £379.67 a month. Against the SE Classic, that is currently £29.03/mo more expensive.

S Exclusive

The 215 bhp all-wheel-drive petrol car with Vescin synthetic leather upholstery, front sports seats and 18-inch Asteroid Spoke alloys. A fixed towbar is available as an option.

The S Exclusive is currently available from £489.26 a month. Against the S Classic, that is currently £54.17/mo more expensive.

S Sport

Adds adaptive suspension and 19-inch JCW Runway Spoke alloys to the 215 bhp all-wheel-drive petrol Countryman. The most driver-focused version short of the John Cooper Works.

The S Sport is currently available from £505.13 a month. Against the S Exclusive, that is currently £15.86/mo more expensive.

Then come the performance versions.

SE Classic

The 309 bhp all-wheel-drive Electric, on 17-inch Profile Spoke alloys. It's a look rather than an equipment step, and the quickest Electric versions reach 62 mph in as little as 5.6 seconds.

The SE Classic is currently available from £350.64 a month. Against the E Exclusive, that is currently £15.58/mo cheaper. Best value

SE Exclusive

Same 309 bhp all-wheel-drive Electric setup, adding Vescin synthetic leather upholstery and 18-inch Asteroid Spoke alloys. Torque on the quickest Electric versions reaches up to 494 Nm, which is what makes them feel so brisk from rest.

The SE Exclusive is currently available from £394.01 a month. Against the E Sport, that is currently £14.34/mo more expensive.

SE Sport

The 309 bhp Electric on 19-inch JCW Runway Spoke alloys. Again, this one is about appearance rather than extra kit over the version below it.

The SE Sport is currently available from £413.44 a month. Against the SE Exclusive, that is currently £19.43/mo more expensive.

John Cooper Works

The 296 bhp petrol flagship, all-wheel drive, 0-62 mph in 5.4 seconds and 155 mph. It adds 19-inch JCW Runway Spoke black alloys and a Harman Kardon surround sound system, and it's the loudest-looking Countryman by some margin.

The John Cooper Works is currently available from £581.00 a month. Against the S Sport, that is currently £75.88/mo more expensive.

Optional packs

Three packs sit on top of the trims. Level 1 bundles the extended LED headlights with adaptable light signatures, wireless charging and head-up display; Level 2 adds Harman Kardon sound; Level 3 swaps in MINI Navigation AR and an interior camera.
