The 2026 MINI Countryman has undergone a significant “embiggening” to better serve the needs of West Michigan drivers. As the largest model in the MINI lineup, the 2026 Countryman S ALL4 is engineered to provide the utility of a premium SUV while maintaining the spirited “go-kart” driving dynamics that define the brand. At MINI of Grand Rapids, we see this model as the ultimate tool for navigating everything from a grocery run at Meijer to a weekend camping trip at Grand Haven State Park.
The 2026 model year introduces a larger footprint that directly translates to increased passenger comfort. With a total length of 175 inches and a 106-inch wheelbase, the Countryman provides a sophisticated cabin that comfortably seats five adults.
Rear-seat passengers in particular benefit from the engineering focus on legroom and headroom, ensuring that even taller occupants enjoy a premium experience during longer drives to Lansing or Detroit.

|---|---|
| Seating Capacity | 5 Passengers |
| Front Headroom | 40.7 Inches |
| Rear Headroom | 37.8 Inches |

Engineering for adventure means maximizing every square inch of the cargo bay. The 2026 Countryman offers approximately 25 cubic feet of storage behind the rear seats, enough to fit four large suitcases without folding a single chair.
For larger hauls, the 40/20/40 split-rear seats can be folded flat to reveal a massive 56.2 cubic feet of maximum cargo volume. This flat-load floor is ideal for transporting bulky sports equipment or small furniture pieces.

Utility is not just about physical space; it is about the technology that simplifies your journey. The 2026 Countryman features the industry-first 9.4-inch circular OLED display powered by MINI Operating System 9. This high-resolution glass hub serves as your primary interface for navigation: media: and vehicle settings.
| West Michigan drivers can utilize the MINI Intelligent Personal Assistant to adjust the cabin temperature or find the nearest charging point or gas station using simple voice commands. The integration of Augmented Reality Navigation further enhances utility by projecting live directional cues onto the display, making city driving in downtown Grand Rapids more intuitive than ever. | ![]() |
