2014 Fiat 500L Versus MINI Cooper Countryman

John LaBlanc compares the 2014 Fiat 500L to the MINI Cooper Countryman to determine which is the best urban family vehicle for Canada's Driving and gives the nod to the Fiat. LaBlanc concludes this about the Countryman:
For buyers who don’t mind digging deeper into their wallets or being beaten at stop lights by a Toyota Prius, the Mini Cooper Countryman is still very appealing to urban buyers looking for a small, fun-to-drive, five-door hatchback with the brand cachet, good residual values and luxury features that are part and parcel with the Mini badge.
