In addition to the black-themed trim and colour bits, the Blackheath Edition comes as standard with some usually optional equipment packages, like the Climate and Multimedia Pro packages – meaning a panoramic sunroof, privacy glass, heated front seats, an 8.8-inch navigation system, 12-speaker Harman Kardon audio system, head-up display and Mini Find Mate Bluetooth tag system are also included.
As per the standard Countryman Cooper S, the Blackheath Edition is powered by a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder petrol engine making 141kW of power and 280Nm of torque, sent to the front wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission.
The Mini Countryman Blackheath Edition is on sale now from $59,990 drive-away – for reference the standard Countryman Cooper S is priced from $48,900 before on-road costs.
