Last week was like a festival for car lovers in India. Mini India has launched its amazing electric SUV, Mini Countryman Electric JCW Pack, in India. I myself got a little excited after hearing this news, because Mini vehicles are always known for their style, performance and unique look. This time too, Mini has left no stone unturned to do something different.
With a limited offer of only 20 units, this SUV boasts online booking and a range of premium features, poised to make its mark in the luxury electric car segment. Let’s take a closer look at this car and see why it could be special for you.
The craze for electric vehicles is growing rapidly in India, and vehicles like the Mini Countryman Electric JCW are making this trend more interesting. Launched at a price of Rs 62 lakh (ex-showroom), this car not only looks sporty, but also shows off Mini’s racing history very well. If you are looking for a car that is not only good for the environment but is also top in terms of style, then this car can be the perfect choice for you.
Key Features of Mini Countryman Electric JCW Pack
The sporty look of this new SUV wins hearts at first glance. Due to the JCW i.e. John Cooper Works Pack, a very special touch has been given to its design and performance. This car is available in two colors. The black sports stripes and checkered design given in the Legend Gray variant give it a look like a racing car.
Apart from this, elements like 19-inch JCW spoke black alloy wheels, sporty side skirts and rear spoiler have been given, which make it look more powerful. The JCW badging near the C-pillar and the charging port further enhance its exclusivity. I really liked its checkered grille design – Mini’s racing style is visible in it.
