The new MINI Countryman assembled in Indonesia comes in two variants - the New MINI Cooper Countryman and the New MINI Cooper S Countryman Sports. The New MINI Countryman is the only premium compact segment vehicle that is assembled locally in Indonesia for now.
Ramesh Divyanathan, President Director of BMW Group Indonesia, said that BMW Group Indonesia continues to improve domestic assembly processes to achieve sustainable business growth. Indonesia is an important market for this strategy and MINI has great potential both in the medium and long term.
