The first new SUV will arrive exclusively with an all-electric powertrain, while the second will be larger than the Countryman. The larger SUV will offer an electric version as well and will be about the same size as the BMW X3.
It’s not known what the new SUVs will be called, but it’s been rumored that the new EV could revive the Paceman name, while the larger SUV could be called the Traveller.
