What is MINI ALL4?


Perfect for All Seasons

Wesley Chapel MINI lovers with the courage to try new things and a willingness to push the boundaries of what is practically possible would appreciate the innovative engineering piece that is the MINI ALL4. The system, when equipped, achieves a high level of dynamic performance and driving pleasure while maintaining the smoothness and efficiency that characterize MINI USA models.

If you are in the market for a vehicle that features this stunning piece of engineering, MINI of Wesley Chapel can provide you with access to one!

MINI ALL4: What Does it Entail?

The ALL4 system is an electro-hydraulic all-wheels-drive system that uses an electronically managed hydraulic pump located on the rear axle to distribute torque to the front and rear wheels from the get-go.

The system splits engine power between the front and rear wheels on a 50/50 basis by default but can redistribute 100% of power back to the front wheels on demand. This enables the vehicle to react quickly and precisely to changing situations and terrain.

A Big, Versatile Piece of Engineering

The ALL4 system includes a power take-off unit incorporated in the front axle differential, a propeller shaft that links to the rear axle, and an electro-hydraulically controlled hang-on clutch assists in sending power to the rear wheels.

The ALL4’s electronic control is linked to the Dynamic Stability Control, which makes it clever enough to read the road conditions and adapt power distribution swiftly and accordingly without the slightest disruption to tractive force. This way, the ALL4 system optimizes weight transfer and traction, which reduces wheel slippage, tire wear, and makes ALL4-equipped models more fuel-efficient.

Navigate Your Way Cleanly and Smoothly out of Murky Waters

Thanks to such excellent work of engineering, the ALL4 gives you traction and stability even under the most adverse weather and site conditions, all while instilling the confidence with which to hug tightly onto the road even in the fastest, most dynamic bends.

So, even if road surfaces are compromised by wet or grit, you’ll always have confidence and control to tackle any sort of terrain, whether you’re driving around Florida or traveling up north during winter months. As well as adding grip to on-road driving, the ALL4 provides the savage-tough capability that lets you rip across off-road fields with total confidence.

Some of the models that come equipped with the ALL4 all-wheel-drive system include the MINI Countryman ALL4, Cooper S Countryman ALL4, Cooper Clubman ALL4, the MINI Cooper S Clubman ALL4, as well as the John Cooper Works ALL4. Other MINI production lines ride on the brand’s registered trademark front-wheel drive automatic transmission.
