Mini Countryman JCW All4 exterior and interior highlights

Sporty body kit includes updated grille, bumpers, wheels and lots of red accents.

In typical Mini JCW fashion, the racier Countryman variant features a chequered design for the blacked-out grille and a revised front bumper. Sporty red highlights are littered about the Countryman JCW’s body, including the bumpers, brake calipers and roof, and it gets 19-inch five-spoke alloys too.

There’s JCW badging on the C pillars, and at the rear, a bigger roof spoiler, blacked-out ‘COUNTRYMAN’ lettering, and a quad-exhaust setup complete the look. The Countryman JCW gets three colour options – British Racing Green, Legend Grey and Midnight Black – and the roof and wing mirrors can be had in either red or black.

Black-and-red aesthetic finds its way to the interior as well.

Inside, the theme is retained by way of an all-black cabin interspersed with red ambient lighting and contrast stitching. The 9.4-inch circular OLED infotainment touchscreen also gets JCW-specific graphics.

All prices are ex-showroom, India.

In terms of features, the Countryman JCW packs in a Harman Kardon surround sound system, a panoramic glass roof, a heads-up display, powered tailgate, a wireless charger, auto park assist, electrically adjustable front seats, automatic climate control, and more.
