Countryman Cooper SE ALL4 vs Ateca 2.0 TSI 190 FR 4Drive 7DSG: chronicle of a drag race at 227 km/h
The launch: 0 to 100 km/h
Off the line, the Ateca 2.0 TSI 190 FR 4Drive 7DSG hits 100 km/h in 6.72 s versus 6.90 s for the Countryman Cooper SE ALL4. At this point, the Ateca 2.0 TSI 190 FR 4Drive 7DSG leads by 0.18 s and sits roughly 3 m ahead.
From 100 km/h to 400 metres
At 200 metres, the Ateca 2.0 TSI 190 FR 4Drive 7DSG is doing 123 km/h against 123 km/h for the Countryman Cooper SE ALL4. The gap is 0.10 s. The gap remains stable from the start.
At 400 metres standing start, the Ateca 2.0 TSI 190 FR 4Drive 7DSG crosses the line in 14.95 s versus 15.09 s. The 0.14 s gap represents roughly 6 m of track — barely a car length.
Beyond 400 metres: top speed comes into play
Past 400 metres, the Ateca 2.0 TSI 190 FR 4Drive 7DSG continues to build its lead. At 600 metres, it runs at 170 km/h versus 168 km/h. At 1,000 metres, the Ateca 2.0 TSI 190 FR 4Drive 7DSG finishes in 27.37 s versus 27.63 s, with a 0.26 s lead.
What the numbers don’t tell you
Electronically capped at 210 km/h, the Countryman Cooper SE ALL4 never reaches its natural aerodynamic ceiling in this duel. That’s not a physical limit of the motor — it’s a deliberate manufacturer decision, typically tied to standard-fit tyre ratings or model-range positioning.
With two combustion powertrains, the difference comes down to power-to-weight ratio (7.63 kg/hp vs 7.79 kg/hp) and transmission (Automatic vs Automatic).
In European road use (130 km/h max), both vehicles reach the legal speed limit in under 10.99 seconds. The 0.18 s difference in 0 to 100 km/h is mostly felt in motorway merging and overtaking.
MINI Countryman Cooper SE ALL4 and SEAT Ateca 2.0 TSI 190 FR 4Drive 7DSG are virtually tied to 100 km/h. The gap is under a tenth of a second — only the physics engine can settle it step by step.
