Reviews SummaryEventually, people grow up, start families, and need a bigger car. With the redesigned 2016 Clubman, MINI also grows up and builds the biggest car in its history, one that can theoretically serve as family transport. In the process, it seems that a few important ingredients have been left out of what ought to be a deliciously satisfying recipe. | |
Reviews SummaryIn their physical operation and everyday practicality, plug-in hybrids are head-scratchers. So are MINI Coopers, which are a personality cult of quirky, offbeat designs. The two have finally met in the form of the four-door, all-wheel-drive MINI Countryman that was redesigned for 2017. Operating the E Countryman All4 poses significant advantages as well as glaring disadvantages. We plugged in, filled the tank, and plugged in some more. Can an expensive hybrid with limited electric range make sense, even though as a MINI, it shouldn’t need to? Well, it's complicated. | |
