Kinja'd!!!

The MINI Cooper S E Countryman ALL4. A MINI that isn’t mini, and a plug-in hybrid small crossoverish thing that’s less efficient than a giant minivan.

How the fuck does this thing get 51 kWh/100 mi in electric mode, for only 12 miles? And 27 MPG combined in gas mode is not good for what this thing is, really.

Compare to 40 kWh/100 mi for 33 miles for a Pacifica Hybrid - a huge-ass fucking minivan - and 32 MPG when the battery runs out.

Or, if you want a luxury-class small crossover with AWD, how about the NX 300h being 31 MPG combined (admittedly, not a PHEV)?

What is it with Germans and inefficient PHEVs? ( Previously... )

It’d definitely be cheaper in the long run to buy a regular Clubman, since you don’t have that price premium and the electric only range is absurdly short.

You know I’d consider this, not for me but for my wife. She’d almost never uses up that 12 miles range, and when she did she’s get... wait what 27mpg... nah
