The 2016 MINI Countryman John Cooper Works 2.0 231 is an all-wheel-drive turbocharged SUV of 1,537 kg with 228 bhp, which works out at 148 bhp per tonne. All-wheel drive is worth most in the first car length: it covers 60 ft in 2.04 s, which is where a four-wheel-drive car takes its margin out of a rear-drive one with the same power. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 3,095th quickest to 60 mph, inside the fastest quarter, and the 5th quickest of the 122 MINIs here. Its 94.2 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.
