Big Fun vs Refined Luxury

The Countryman boasts a quirky charm that reflects Edmonton's eclectic vibe. Think playful curves, a signature grille, and a Union Jack taillight—it's a head-turner on Whyte Avenue. 

Inside, you'll find surprisingly spacious seating for five, with heated, power-adjustable front seats for those long commutes down the Yellowhead Highway. Standard sunroofs bathe the cabin in natural light.

The X1 boasts a sleek, modern design that holds its own on Jasper Avenue. It's slightly larger than the Countryman, offering a touch more legroom for rear passengers. The interior has premium materials and thoughtful touches, like a standard digital instrument cluster. 

Punchy Performance for City and Country

 
Both SUVs pack a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine under the hood, pumping out 241 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque. That's enough muscle to navigate Edmonton's bustling streets and weekend escapes to the Rockies with ease. 

 
The Countryman comes standard with all-wheel drive (ALL4), providing extra confidence on snowy days.
