Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Toyota RAV4 Prime than in the MINI Countryman, due to its greater head- and legroom. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between front seat comfort in the MINI Countryman and the Toyota RAV4 Prime.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The MINI Countryman is somewhat more expensive than the Toyota RAV4 Prime.

Dimensions
The MINI Countryman is about the same width as the Toyota RAV4 Prime. The MINI Countryman is slightly shorter than the Toyota RAV4 Prime, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The MINI Countryman has a larger turning radius than the Toyota RAV4 Prime, making it slightly more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
In terms of horsepower, it's a virtual tie between the MINI Countryman and the Toyota RAV4 Prime.

Powertrain
The MINI Countryman has much lower torque than the Toyota RAV4 Prime, which generally means that it won't feel as fast or powerful.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the MINI Countryman and the Toyota RAV4 Prime. The MINI Countryman has less cargo space than the Toyota RAV4 Prime, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
