There have been only a few days since MINI unveiled the second generation Countryman, and reports are starting to flow in.
One of them points out a more rugged version of the popular crossover and was posted by Autocar, which is citing undisclosed sources within the company.
According to the British publication, the vehicle is said to feature an increased ride height, front and rear skid plates, and possible updated bumpers on both ends, bigger driving lights and new wheel patterns.
Until BMW officials decide to shed some light on the case, we will remind you that the latest member to join the MINI family is getting ready to shine under the spotlight at the 2016 LA Auto Show, next month.
It shares the UKL2 platform of the BMW Group with other models, including the latest X1, and comes in four flavors – Cooper, Cooper S, Cooper D and Cooper SD. Channeling the output to the front-wheel drive or the ALL4 all-wheel drive is either a 6-speed manual, a 6-speed automatic or an 8-speed automatic gearbox, depending on the selected version.
