WHAT IS THE IIHS TOP SAFETY PICK+?

The IIHS Top Safety Pick+ award is one of the highest safety recognitions in the automotive world. Vehicles that receive this accolade must excel across a range of challenging tests designed to evaluate how well they protect occupants in various types of collisions. This includes assessing the vehicle’s structure, effectiveness in crash prevention, and the presence of advanced safety features.

To earn the Top Safety Pick+ rating, the 2025 MINI Countryman passed multiple rigorous tests, achieving a “Good” rating—the highest possible—in nearly every crashworthiness category. This included impressive performance in the small overlap front, moderate overlap front, and side-impact tests. It’s a significant accomplishment that showcases the brand’s dedication to not only meeting but exceeding the highest safety standards.

ADVANCED SAFETY FEATURES THAT STAND OUT

In addition to structural improvements, the 2025 MINI Countryman is equipped with a suite of advanced driver-assist technologies that set it apart from other crossovers in its class. These include:

  • Lane Departure Warning: Helping drivers stay within lane markings by alerting them if they begin to drift without signaling.
  • Forward Collision Warning: A feature designed to notify the driver of an impending collision with a vehicle ahead.
  • Automatic Emergency Braking: An essential component for urban and highway driving, this system can autonomously apply the brakes in emergencies to help prevent or reduce the severity of a collision.

These technologies contributed to the Countryman’s top scores in both vehicle-to-vehicle and vehicle-to-pedestrian crash prevention tests, making it a reliable option for drivers who prioritize safety.

BIGGER, SAFER, BETTER: THE EVOLVED MINI COUNTRYMAN

MINI has always been known for its compact, go-kart-like feel, but the 2025 Countryman marks a shift. It’s larger than its predecessors, measuring 174.5 inches in length, 72.6 inches in width, and 65.2 inches in height. This increase in size not only provides more space for families but also accommodates the additional safety structures and technologies that are integral to its IIHS Top Safety Pick+ rating. This larger design does not sacrifice MINI’s signature driving experience; instead, it combines MINI’s sporty handling with enhanced safety features, making the 2025 Countryman ideal for those who want both fun and peace of mind in a family-friendly crossover.

SAFETY FOR MINI ENTHUSIASTS AND FAMILIES ALIKE

For MINI enthusiasts, this safety award is a testament to the brand’s evolution. The MINI Countryman has long been a favorite among drivers who desire a bit more space while maintaining that iconic MINI handling. Now, with the Top Safety Pick+ rating, MINI fans can enjoy that same dynamic driving experience with an added layer of protection. Whether it’s for city commuting or longer family road trips, the 2025 Countryman offers MINI fans the safety and comfort they deserve.

In the competitive crossover market, the 2025 MINI Countryman stands out as an option that doesn’t compromise. It combines MINI’s unique charm with state-of-the-art safety features, making it a compelling choice for families, daily commuters, and MINI aficionados alike.
