In Cars, Local News, MINI / by Jonathan Lee / 11 August 2026 5:38 pmMINI has introduced its second localised special edition of the third-generation U25 Countryman in Malaysia, the Desert Night. The exterior addenda includes a distinctive sand dune door stripe running down from the wing mirrors, along with a “Desert Night” black strip on the passenger-side front bumper that visually extends the grille “moustache”. Inside, MINI is flexing its customisation capabilities with 3D-printed Desert Night badges on the steering wheel and key cap, plus the recurring star roundels on the floor mats. The Desert Night is available exclusively in Smokey Green or Slate Blue, limited to 30 units and 18 units respectively. Both are paired with Vintage Brown upholstery, which replaced Dark Petrol (read: teal) on the 2026 model year Countryman S.
