All important stuff, defroster/AC/seat heaters are physical buttons! I love it. https://cdn.bimmertoday.de/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/2017-M... original article: https://www.bimmertoday.de/2016/10/25/mini-countryman-2017-f...

I agree, that's a very intuitive interior layout. Within a minute, I've figured out the entire car, including steering controls. Thanks for sharing!
