Reviews Summary

In their physical operation and everyday practicality, plug-in hybrids are head-scratchers. So are MINI Coopers, which are a personality cult of quirky, offbeat designs. The two have finally met in the form of the four-door, all-wheel-drive MINI Countryman that was redesigned for 2017. Operating the E Countryman All4 poses significant advantages as well as glaring disadvantages. We plugged in, filled the tank, and plugged in some more. Can an expensive hybrid with limited electric range make sense, even though as a MINI, it shouldn’t need to? Well, it's complicated.

Reviews Summary

Since the Toyota Corolla first debuted in the U.S. in 1968, it has gone on to become the number one selling vehicle of all time. Over the decades, the Corolla has stayed true to its original formula of delivering a reliable and economical vehicle for the masses. With the introduction of the Corolla Hybrid in 2020, that formula is even more relevant.
