The first Mini, built in 1959, definitely lived up to its name. It measured in at 10-feet long (120.25 inches) long. Compare that to the current Mini Cooper, which stretches out to 13.1-feet long (with a four-door configuration) which is a big weight and size gain for a brand that prided itself on building small cars.
The 2019 Countryman which is the largest Mini to date is 14.1-feet (169.2 inches) long and 5.1 feet (61.2 inches) tall. It’s a whole 3.0 inches longer than the previous generation, and part of its marketing included the slogan, “our biggest Mini yet”.
