Design

There’s room for five inside the appealing cabin and the boot takes up to 941 litres of luggage (278 litres with the rear seats up). On the exterior, MINI have ‘purified’ and modernised the design of its 5-door hatch. A large grille with a black hexagonal surround dominates the front-end and the position lights have been replaced with air intakes. A Multitone Roof is among the striking features of the new models, featuring a unique colour gradient on each MINI. New exterior paint colours in the range are Rooftop Grey and Island Blue, and you can choose from five new wheels with a range of spoke designs in 17” and 18” options.

Safety

MINI’s safety features include Dynamic Stability and Traction Control to provide the optimum grip on all driving surfaces, with Dynamic Stability Control intervening to keep the vehicle in line by applying braking force to individual wheels. The Driver Assistance pack includes Active Cruise Control (with Stop & Go function), which automatically maintains desired speed and distance to vehicles ahead, with lane departure warnings helping you to stay safely within the lane.

Performance

The 1.2-litre petrol MINI One powertrain has been replaced by a three-cylinder 1.5-litre Twin-Power turbo petrol engine. This is the most efficient petrol engine with 57.6mpg in the combined cycle and 112g/km CO2. Cooper and Cooper S engines are 1.5 and 2.0 litres respectively. There’s also a 134bhp diesel engine for the Cooper One D delivering 99g/km CO2 and a combined mpg of 76.3. New Adaptive Suspension enhances MINI’s renowned go-kart feeling, balancing sportiness and ride comfort via continuous frequency-selective damping.
