MINI Countryman undergoes rugged test in US Rocky Mountains

MINI has taken its new Countryman Edition to the US Rocky Mountains for a demanding off‑road trial. The vehicle, fitted with a distinctive camouflage pattern, was driven over gravel roads, rocky terrain, steep mountain passes and remote trails to assess its durability under high altitude, loose surfaces and rapidly changing weather conditions.

Director of MINI, Jean‑Philippe Parain, said the test reflects the brand’s long‑standing adventure spirit, adding that the results will ensure the Countryman remains capable and safe wherever owners choose to explore.
