Mini USA introduced the all-electric 2025 MINI Countryman SUV by lighting up the Sphere last November during the 2023 F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix. The 2025 MINI Countryman SE ALL4 will arrive at U.S. dealerships in September.

Why the MINI Countryman SE All4 is such a big deal

MINI introduced the all-electric 2025 MINI Countryman SUV with Sphere in during the 2023 F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix.
To a certain extent, we’re still in the early days of battery electric vehicles (BEVs), so every new model is noteworthy in a decades-long transformation to driving predominantly electrified cars. However, the MINI is unique, not just because it’s cute and famous for fun go-kart-like driving — although both add to its appeal. In our large SUV and truck-obsessed automotive market, the MINI has grown in size somewhat, but it’s still a smile-provoking ride.

Earlier battery-driven MINIs suffered from very low range per charge, and the 2025 models don’t compete with range leaders such as the Lucid Air Touring or Tesla Model 3. Happily, the new MINI’s EPA-estimated 212-mile range is an improvement over earlier models and sufficient for real-world range demands.

Primary features of the 2025 MINI Countryman SE ALL4

The Countryman SE ALL4 is more than just cute. This MINI encompasses leading-edge automotive technology. The Countryman was MINI’s first SUV, and the SE ALL4 is the first battery-powered version. Leading features include intelligent all-wheel drive, a full range of automatic driver assistance solutions (ADAS), a partially automated Level 2 autonomous driver, and, again, a 212-mile range per charge. MINI says with 130kW DC fast charging, it will take less than 30 minutes to charge the battery from 10% to 80%.

Two electric motors combine for 308 horsepower and 364 lb-ft of instantly available torque. MINI quotes 0-to-60 mph acceleration in a respectably fast 5.4 seconds. The Las Vegas F1 introduction featured the car’s round OLED display, the new digital voice assistant, and MINI experience modes for immersive driving experiences with coordinated interior lighting.

The 2025 MINI Countryman SE ALL4 starting price is $46,195, including destination and handling fees.

2024 Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet: Drop-top dream car reaches U.S. shores
New Mercedes aspirational four passenger convertibles arrive soon
2024 Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet in white direct frontal view parked on red ground with clouds and sky in the background.

Hot on the heels of Mercedes-Benz EQS update announcement, we now know the 2024 Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet is scheduled to arrive at U.S. dealerships this spring with new safety technology, optimized aerodynamics, and the next-generation MBUX infotainment system. Powered by mild hybrid engines, the CLE 300 4MATIC Cabriolet and CLE 450 4MATIC Cabriolet are also larger than the previous models.
Why the 2024 Mercedes-Benz CLE Cabriolet matters

Not many large automakers could get away with introducing a new-generation vehicle today that's not a pickup truck, SUV, battery-electric vehicle, or plug-in hybrid. However, it is arguable that Mercedes sets the standard for four-seat medium-luxury European convertibles. BMW convertible four-seaters are a bit sportier, and Audis are less costly, but the Mercedes CLE Cabriolet fits the drop-top dream car profile nicely.

The new electric Mercedes G-Class comes with four motors and a U.S. exclusive
The new G-Class will G-Roar at you
Mercedes-Benz G 580

The new all-electric Mercedes G class features four individually controlled electric motors, superior underbody protection, and a U.S.-exclusive trim. The luxury automaker has announced that the EDITION ONE special edition, which expands on the SUV's standard equipment and adds unique design elements, is only available in the States.

The vehicle’s four-motor setup provides a total of 579 horsepower and 859 lb-ft of torque -- along with more control over where that power goes. The ability to manage the output of each wheel is particularly useful on difficult terrain, off-road, and in situations that require precise maneuvering. The power for the motors comes from a116-kWh high-voltage lithium-ion battery, which is integrated into the vehicle’s ladder frame and drops its center of gravity as a result.

Maserati rounds off its 2025 Folgore lineup with an electric GranCabrio
Maserati's sports convertible goes all-electric
Maserati GranCabrio Folgore

Maserati has unveiled the final piece of its 2024 electrification puzzle in the form of the GranCabrio Folgore -- an all-electric version of its new convertible. The battery-powered roadster was unveiled as part of “Folgore Days,” a celebration of Maserati’s new electric lineup held in Italy’s motor valley. Folgore Days itself is following on from the Formula E racing weekend at Misano World Circuit -- with Maserati being the only luxury brand represented in the electric racing series.

The Trident has gone all out with its latest offering, producing what it claims is the fastest electric convertible on the market. It can do 0-60 in 2.8 seconds and is capable of hitting speeds of just over 180 miles per hour. As with many of Maserati’s sportier offerings, “Corsa Mode” is available and is the easiest way to get the most out of your electric Maserati. The vehicle produces just over 750 horsepower, though with boost, this can briefly reach around 820 horsepower. So the GranCabrio sits alongside its hard-top sibling as the most powerful vehicle Maserati currently offers.
