MINI is expanding the Countryman range in Australia with the new MINI Countryman Untamed Edition. Available for the MINI Countryman S ALL4 and the all-electric MINI Countryman SE ALL4, the edition pairs intelligent ALL4 all-wheel drive with exclusive exterior and interior details that give MINI’s largest and most versatile model an adventurous new character.
“Australian MINI drivers have always valued the freedom to express their individuality through their vehicle. The MINI Countryman Untamed Edition brings that spirit of customisation to life with distinctive design details and a character made for everything from the everyday commute to spontaneous weekend escapes,” said Alexander Brockhoff, General Manager of MINI Australia.
MINI Countryman Untamed – Ready for every escape.
From weekday driving to weekend escapes and longer road trips, the Untamed Edition builds on the versatility of the MINI Countryman with a distinctive design inspired by the outdoors.
Generous interior space, flexible transport solutions and the elevated seating position provide the ideal foundation for an active lifestyle.
In Australia, the Untamed Edition will be offered on the MINI Countryman S ALL4 and the all-electric MINI Countryman SE ALL4.
Exclusive details with a sense of adventure.
The Untamed Edition is distinguished by exclusive 19-inch light-alloy wheels in a bespoke design. Textured protective films applied to the wheel arches, side sills and Power Dome help protect the bodywork while emphasising the edition’s robust visual character. Newly designed underbody protection elements finished in Dark Steel and an edition-specific Untamed logo on the C-pillar complete the look.
Distinctive exterior design with a robust character.
“The Untamed Edition highlights qualities that are already part of the MINI Countryman’s DNA: robustness, versatility and a spirit of exploration. Our goal was to emphasise these characteristics through carefully selected colours, materials and details, while remaining true to the unmistakable MINI character,” says Holger Hampf, Head of MINI Design.
Edition-specific exterior design is a newly interpreted front grille featuring a vertically oriented geometry. The new angular inserts emphasise the upright front end and give the vehicle an even stronger, more confident appearance. Finished in the exclusive accent colour Dark Steel, the contoured grille surround creates a technical design statement while reinforcing the premium character of the edition.
New side sill designs, redesigned front and rear underbody protection elements and a newly sculpted rear diffuser contribute to a more powerful overall appearance. Textured matt black protective films on the wheel arches, side sills and Power Dome echo the vehicle’s design language, help protect against stone chips and reinforce its functional character.
Wheels and tyres
The new 19-inch “Untamed Edition Spoke” light-alloy wheel takes inspiration from the purposeful simplicity of classic utility wheels. Five strong spokes and technical fastening details give the vehicle a distinctive presence, while the centre cap carries the MINI wordmark in Dark Steel.
Exterior colours developed specifically for the Untamed Edition draw inspiration from natural, earthy and mineral tones. Alongside the exclusive finishes Hideaway Grey, Nomad Blue and Frozen Nomad Blue. Customers can also choose Nanuq White and Midnight Black. Frozen Nomad Blue marks the first matt exterior paint finish to be introduced into MINI series production. Its matt surface changes the perception of the vehicle’s proportions. Highlighting surfaces and contours more prominently while creating a particularly sculptural and premium appearance. Roof finishes are available in either Glazed White or Jet Black.
All accent details consistently follow the outdoor-inspired design concept.
- MINI emblems at the front and rear,

- creating a technical yet robust appearance through their metallic finish.
The edition-specific Untamed logo featuring a stylised mountain motif complements these elements on the C-pillar.
Functional interior inspired by the outdoors.
Colours, materials and finishes throughout the cabin take inspiration from modern outdoor equipment, natural textures and highly functional products.
At the centre of the interior are the exclusive Vescin Nightshade Blue sports seats. They combine premium perforated Vescin upholstery with knitted surfaces in the shoulder and headrest areas. The designers inspired the structured knit pattern by rock formations and complemented it with piping and decorative stitching in Cornflower Blue. The design features an integrated Untamed logo showcasing a mountain panorama.
Knitted surfaces on the dashboard and door panels continue to define the interior design. The specially developed Millennial Melange colour tone combines dark grey shades with a rich blue base. This two-tone knitted structure has become a distinctive feature of the new MINI family and contributes to a refined, premium ambience.
The designers changed all interior accents from Vibrant Silver to Dark Steel. You can find additional Cornflower Blue accents on the steering wheel strap, steering wheel spoke, and selected interior elements.
The redesigned centre console storage box features a more robust geometry. With its elastic retaining straps, consciously references premium outdoor equipment such as backpacks and climbing gear.
Rubber floor mats and a matching luggage compartment mat further enhance the edition’s everyday practicality. Their three-dimensional pattern takes inspiration from natural rock formations. Combining functionality with a distinctive design language.
Production in Leipzig.
Production of the new MINI Countryman Untamed Edition will begin in November 2026 at BMW Group Plant Leipzig. Ahead of its Australian market launch in early 2027.
