Where are they?

I went to my local MINI dealership in Richmond VA, Crown MINI, and they had no Countryman SE ALL4s for sale, nor any schedule to get any. In addition, they couldn’t find any cars available within 200 miles to transfer to their dealership. I’m looking for any color with the Iconic trim level.

Has MINI suspended shipments to the US?
 
My local MINI dealership has complained about how MINI sends them inventory in fits and spurts--it's either feast or famine. I wouldn't be surprised if tariffs and the tax credit ending are also factors.
Would you entertain a used Countryman SE? There are actually some used ones available...
 
So the U25 LCI is getting a minor battery update with a nominal change in capacity. Probably a Gen 6 motor update with some added efficiencies.

Still happy with the U25 and F56!

Thx! When did/will the LCI start production? Do these carry a NACS adapter or a dedicated port?
 
Start of production is March 2026, but as for the lack of inventory, it was probably just cleaned out. Word on the street is Nov 2025 for supercharger access?
 
From what I have heard, MINI will start including NACS adapters with the 2026 Countryman SE starting with the November production. Native NACS ports are expected as part of the Countryman's LCI. I'm not sure when that LCI will be, but there will be a small "refresh" in March 2026. This refresh will include a slightly revised battery pack with a net capacity increase of less than 0.5 kWh, but I have not seen any mention of a change to the charging port. It's possible that build will include a NACs port.
 
MotoringFile is just full of AI slop now, because the battery update was only officially for iX1 and iX2. It's only conjecture that the U25 BEV gets the battery update, and their article was verbatim plus flowery AI to cover things up.

Now that BMW has delayed MINI’s transition to the Neue Klasse platform until the early 2030s, the company will probably wait to work out all the Neue Klasse's NACS kinks before engineering an NACS upgrade for the "left-behind" electric F60 Countryman.

Might be a challenge because the F60 PHEV only has J1772 and no DC pins for the 10kWh battery pack (7.6kWh pre LCI).
