How this compares

At 27 MPG combined, the 2016 Mini Cooper Countryman ranks 10th of 17 compact cars EPA rated for 2016 — 1 MPG short of the 28 MPG median for that group.

That places it in the lower third of its class. If annual mileage is high, the running-cost gap against a class-average rival compounds quickly.

EPA puts annual fuel spend at about $2,800, $500 more than the $2,300 typical for the class. Over five years at 15,000 miles a year that is roughly $14,000, a $2,500 difference against a class-median vehicle.

Tailpipe CO₂ is 332 grams per mile — about 5 metric tons over 15,000 miles of driving.
