Comparison Review

Comfort
Passengers in the backseat will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Toyota Land Cruiser than in the MINI Countryman, due to its greater head- and legroom. The Toyota Land Cruiser will be a hit with tall drivers and their front seat passengers, since it has greater front head- and legroom than the MINI Countryman.

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). Clearly, the MINI Countryman is a better financial choice over the Toyota Land Cruiser, when considering MSRP.

Dimensions
Since the MINI Countryman is much slimmer than the Toyota Land Cruiser, it'll be much easier to find a wide enough space in a crowded parking lot. If you go with the MINI Countryman, you'll have a much easier time finding a large enough space to park than you will with the Toyota Land Cruiser.

Handling
The MINI Countryman has a smaller turning radius than the Toyota Land Cruiser, allowing you to more easily maneuver in and out of tight spots.

Performance
The MINI Countryman has a little less horsepower than the Toyota Land Cruiser.

Powertrain
The MINI Countryman has much lower torque than the Toyota Land Cruiser, 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 Land Cruiser.
