Countryman’s Class vs. Soul’s Swagger
The 2025 Mini Countryman presents an evolved form of its iconic design. Now longer and taller than before, the Countryman boasts a bold SUV style that radiates adventure and class. The sleek octagonal grille, LED headlights, and a striking powerdome bonnet create an indomitable presence. Its unique light-alloy wheels and stylish high-gloss black roof rail underline its rugged, yet polished appearance.
On the other hand, the Kia Soul remains true to its reputation as a design icon with a fresh twist. It sports a more assertive front end that highlights its bold and contemporary look. The Soul’s distinctive silhouette stands out with its compact, boxy frame, making it instantly recognizable and admired for its urban flair and practicality.
German Muscle vs. Korean Agility
The Mini Countryman steps up the game with a TwinPower Turbo engine, ensuring a blend of thrilling acceleration and efficiency. Standard ALL4 All-Wheel Drive guarantees robust traction across varying terrains, embodying the spirit of adventure with every drive.
Conversely, the Kia Soul maintains its fun-to-drive ethos with responsive handling and an agile stance that’s perfect for zipping around Edmonton. It’s not just about looks; the Soul’s 2.0-litre Multi-Point Injection engine is designed to provide a lively and invigorating driving experience, making every journey enjoyable.
Two Expressions of High-tech Driving
Technology in the Mini Countryman leaps forward with the first-ever circular OLED touchscreen, which serves as the digital heart of the cabin. This advanced system integrates navigation, infotainment, and various MINI Experience Modes, offering a personalized driving atmosphere that adapts to your mood and needs.
The Kia Soul doesn’t lag behind in the tech arena. It boasts a 10.25-inch multimedia interface with touch-screen navigation, keeping you connected wherever you roam. Coupled with Sound-Reactive Mood Lights and an optional Harman Kardon® sound system, the Soul ensures every drive is an immersive sensory event.
Safety First, Two Ways
Safety in the Mini Countryman is proactive, featuring a standard Driving Assistant that includes blind spot detection and active lane keeping. It’s like having an extra set of eyes on the road, enhancing safety and confidence under various driving conditions.
The Kia Soul matches up with its robust suite of safety technologies, including Advanced Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist and Lane Follow Assist.
