Designed for the road less travelled: Introducing the MINI Countryman Untamed Edition.

Built for everyday life with an eye on the road less travelled, the new MINI Countryman Untamed Edition combines rugged, adventure-ready design with the comfort and versatility of the brand’s largest model. The edition offers the optional, specially developed Pirelli Scorpion All Terrain Plus tyres for the S and SE models, a 15mm ride-height increase on the SE powertrain, and intelligent ALL4 all-wheel drive on relevant models, alongside exclusive design and equipment details. Besides the Untamed Edition, a range of optional outdoor lifestyle accessories can be purchased separately, including a purposeful MINI roof tent developed with AUTOHOME and an exclusive camping collection created with HELINOX.

Suitable for a weekend escape, road trip or camping expedition, the MINI Countryman Untamed Edition is a versatile companion for a range of adventures. The model offers generous interior space and a number of practical storage options, whilst maintaining distinctive MINI character.

Head of MINI, Jean-Philippe Parain, comments: "Today, our customers are looking for a vehicle that supports them in everyday life just as confidently as it does on spontaneous getaways and longer journeys. That is exactly what inspired the Untamed Edition. It combines the hallmark MINI driving experience with even greater freedom to explore new places and discover more along the way.”

Exterior details inspired by exploration.
The MINI Countryman Untamed Edition builds on the model’s powerful proportions with rugged, edition-specific details throughout the exterior. At the front sits a redesigned vertical grille surrounded by a Dark Steel-coloured trim, which gives the front end a stronger, even more purposeful appearance. The side sills have been redesigned alongside new front and rear underbody protection elements, reinforcing the Untamed Edition’s rugged character. The rear of the car features a sculpted diffuser painted in Dark Steel, complementing the edition’s more angular design and other Dark Steel exterior details.

The Untamed Edition includes textured matt-black protective film above the wheel arches, along the side sills and power dome on the bonnet to help protect the model from stone chips and reinforce its off-road-inspired characteristics. Elsewhere on the C-pillar sits an Untamed logo with a stylised mountain motif in Cornflower Blue to further set the model apart from other MINI Countryman models.

New 19” Untamed Edition Spoke light-alloy wheels are also introduced to the Untamed Edition as a model exclusive. The design is a nod to classic off-road steel wheels, combining five bold spokes and technical fastening details, with optional all-terrain tyres on the S and SE models completing the rugged styling. Dark Steel wheel centre caps featuring the MINI wordmark complete the design.

Two new exclusive paint finishes are also being introduced, available only on the Untamed Edition. The colour palette includes edition-exclusive Hideaway Grey and Nomad Blue, with Frozen Nomad Blue set to follow from January 2027 orders, marking the first time a matt paint finish will be offered on a MINI from the factory. Alongside these new paint finishes, existing paints Nanuq White and Midnight Black will also be available. The roof is available in either Glazed White or Jet Black. Dark Steel accents appear across the badges, lettering, grille surround and underbody protection.

Commenting on the new MINI Countryman Untamed Edition, Head of MINI Design, Holger Hampf, says: "The Untamed Edition highlights qualities that are already part of the MINI Countryman’s DNA: robustness, versatility and a spirit of exploration. Our goal was to emphasise these characteristics through carefully selected colours, materials and details, while remaining true to the unmistakable MINI character.”

An optional towbar is available across all powertrains, further enhancing the versatility of the MINI Countryman Untamed Edition. This allows a towing capacity of up to 2,000 kg. Roof load capacity is up to 75 kg whilst on the move, and up to 300 kg when stationary – making it the perfect place to set up your roof tent after a long day of exploring.

The MINI Countryman Untamed Edition specified with the SE powertrain receives a 15mm increase in ride height over the standard MINI Countryman, providing additional off-road capability.

A versatile interior created for every adventure.
The interior continues the outdoor-inspired theme through the choice of materials, colours and details. The JCW sports seats are upholstered in Vescin Nightshade Blue as standard, with quilted shoulder and headrest sections. Vescin Vintage Brown and Vescin Black upholstery are also optionally offered. A Cornflower Blue ‘Untamed’ mountain motif features at the centre of the seats, while the upper sections take inspiration from natural rock formations. Cornflower Blue stitching and piping add further contrast, with the colour also picked up on the six o’clock steering wheel strap above the blue ‘Untamed’ wordmark.

Familiar knitted surfaces on the dashboard and door panels continue to define the overall design. The specially developed Millennial Melange colouring combines dark grey shades with a rich blue base throughout the interior. All interior accents have changed from Vibrant Silver to Dark Steel to complement the exterior detailing.

The redesigned central storage box introduces a sturdier form and elastic retaining straps, drawing inspiration from premium backpacks and climbing equipment in keeping with the outdoor lifestyle. Rubber floor and boot mats are also designed with outdoor use in mind, making them easy to clean after muddy walks, wet weekends and adventures with passengers big and small. They also feature the Cornflower Blue strap and Untamed mountain motif found elsewhere on the edition’s distinctive design.

From roof tent to campsite: equipped for travel.
MINI will offer a tailored outdoor range of optional accessories that can be purchased separately including a purpose-built roof tent developed by Italian specialist AUTOHOME. Available for purchase directly from AUTOHOME, this roof tent uses weather-resistant materials and features a panoramic opening, assisted by integrated gas struts. MINI has also partnered with outdoor equipment specialist HELINOX to create an exclusive range of lightweight, functional camping equipment, such as folding chairs and camping tables, designed to complement the Untamed Edition.

The MINI Countryman Untamed Edition will be available in the UK from launch with a choice of C, S, E and SE powertrains, spanning both petrol and electric options.

The MINI Countryman Untamed Edition is priced from £33,595 OTR and is available to order now from MINI retailers nationwide, with first customer deliveries expected in early 2027.
