Conquer Winter with the 2025 All-Electric MINI Countryman: Features, Tips, and Myths Debunked
Posted on March 29, 2025
Winter in Canada can be tough. Roads get icy, temperatures drop, and driving can be a challenge. But the 2025 all-electric MINI Countryman is built for it. With smart features, all-wheel drive, and a powerful battery, it’s ready for Edmonton’s cold months. If you think EVs struggle in winter, it’s time to rethink that.
Power That Keeps You Moving
The 2025 MINI Countryman SE ALL4 delivers 308 horsepower with dual electric motors. The standard ALL4 all-wheel drive keeps you steady on snowy roads. Instant torque gives quick acceleration, even in the cold. This MINI doesn’t just handle winter. It owns it.
Built for Canadian Winters
Cold weather is no match for the MINI Countryman’s heat pump system. It helps the battery stay efficient, even when temperatures drop. Heated seats and a heated steering wheel keep you warm. Pre-conditioning lets you warm up the car before you even step inside. No more freezing mornings.
Myth: EVs Lose Too Much Range in Winter
It’s true that cold weather affects batteries, but the MINI Countryman has solutions. The heat pump system reduces energy loss. Regenerative braking helps recover power while driving. And with up to 433 km of range, you can still take those long trips with confidence.
Charging Made Easy
Charging in winter is simple. Home charging stations work efficiently, even in the cold. Public fast chargers can take the battery from 10% to 80% in just 30 minutes. Plugging in overnight ensures a full charge for the next day.
Drive Modes for Every Condition
The MINI Countryman comes with different drive modes. Green Mode saves battery life for long trips. Core Mode balances power and efficiency. Go-Kart Mode gives you the sportiest drive, even in snow. Whatever the road conditions, there’s a setting for it.
More Space, More Adventure
This is the biggest MINI ever. There’s plenty of room for winter gear, groceries, and road trip essentials. With 460 litres of cargo space (or 1,450 litres with seats down), packing for a weekend ski trip is easy. No need to travel light.
Ready for Edmonton’s Roads
Whether it’s a drive through the city or a trip to Jasper, the MINI Countryman is built for Alberta’s terrain. The all-wheel drive system keeps you in control. Advanced traction control and winter tires make slippery roads easier to handle. Snow, slush, or ice—this MINI is ready.
Winter driving doesn’t have to be stressful. The 2025 all-electric MINI Countryman proves that. Ready to see it in action? Visit MINI Edmonton today and take it for a test drive.
