Mini Countryman in Italy: love at first sight

The new Mini Countryman like the Italian drivers. This was stated by the same manufacturer, which is part of gruppoBmw that the official market debut has sold over 3,800 units, making our country the first in the European scene. In January no coincidence that the registrations were up 15.4%. Among the most popular versions of the Italian public are the Cooper (both diesel and petrol) in particular variants All4-wheel-drive (in fact two out of three outputs from Countryman Mini dealerships are equipped with the 4x4).

It therefore seems to have made the center the technology employed by BMW, which builds on an electro-magnetic center differential that distributes the torque continuously between the front and rear. In the normal running condition, for example up to 50% of torque is transmitted to the rear wheels, but under special conditions, rear-wheel drive can get to 100%.

Complete all the driving stability control Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) and Traction Control (DTC) as standard on the Mini Cooper S and Cooper D All4 Countryman. In March, also will the Mini Cooper SD, equipped with the most powerful diesel in the range: 2-liter, 143 horsepower.
