New Countryman and Hatch SE

[MINI William]

The eagerly anticipated Hatch and Countryman SE have been launched today at the IAA Motorshow.

Here’s the official MINI Press Launch CLICK (https://www.press.bmwgroup.com/global/article/detail/T0430338EN/the-new-mini-family-is-all-electric-digital-and-distinctive)

Personally I quite like them both. Quite excited to see the JCW versions.

The interior looks lovely and really like the seats

Stumbled across these of the JCW Countryman, only thing I don't like is the new JCW badge

It seems to be a trend at the moment for car manufacturers to redesign badges. A lot of money being spent but very few improvements in the badges.

I like new JCW badge :yes nod:

Like the new badge, clean and simple.

Be interesting to see the UK pricing, the obvious competition for the JCW variant is the X1 M35i, which just doing a basic conversion of the euro price is the cheaper of the two just now.

Some pictures I’ve found of the JCW spec Cooper SE

Based on the pictures I've seen so far I love the design. It's taken a nice step forward from the "round" styling of previous generations whilst maintaining the iconic modern MINI look. I also like the redesigned JCW logo.

Looking forward to the ICE reveals. :thumbs up:

[DigitalLemming]

I like the front end, not sure about the Spider-Man rear.

I think the badge is a nice evolution, but the flag styling could maybe be better

[MINI William]

The ICE should be quite exciting as I believe it's more of a halfway house between the new G01 and F56 in terms of styling. I think the new electric looks great but not sure I'm ready to make the jump to full electric.
