The new MINI Convertible
The new MINI Cooper Convertible completes the new MINI family
Following the successful launch of the all-new MINI family throughout the past year, the new MINI Cooper Convertible completes the new MINI family. Offered in a choice of two new petrol models, the MINI Cooper Convertible will begin production at MINI Plant Oxford later this year, following a nine-year hiatus.
Two powerful petrol engines for iconic driving fun.
The new MINI Cooper Convertible is offered with a choice of two advanced petrol engines. The MINI Cooper Convertible C has a power output of 120 kW/163 hp, a maximum torque of 250 Nm (221 lb/ft) and accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 8.2 seconds, with a top speed of 137 mph.
The performance-enhanced MINI Cooper Convertible S has a power output of 150 kW/204 hp, accelerates from 0 to 62 mph in 6.9 seconds, has a maximum torque of 300 Nm (221 lb/ft), and a top speed of 150 mph.
The MINI Cooper Convertible offers brilliant driving dynamics thanks to the model’s suspension and damping system which is tuned for nimble handling. The vehicle offers drivers precise steering thanks to the highly preloaded anti-roll bar mounts on the axles, providing a well-balanced ride for ultimate comfort.
Exterior Design: Compact proportions and short overhangs.
With its iconic round headlights, newly designed front grille and circular LED headlights – availably optionally with three customisable light signatures – the body of the MINI Cooper Convertible remains unmistakable. Characterised by short overhangs and a long wheelbase, the body is given a generous appearance despite its small exterior dimensions of just 3,879 mm in length, 1,431 mm in height and 1,744 mm in width.
Fully automatic soft top for spontaneous adventure.
The new MINI Cooper Convertible offers a fully automatic soft top roof, and with its extremely quiet drive, the folding roof can be fully opened in just 18 seconds while travelling at up to 19 mph. At the same time, the window bars and side windows are lowered to provide a completely unobstructed view of the surroundings. The roof can also be opened to just 40cm, providing a sunroof, while the full roof closes in just 15 seconds at the touch of a button.
The new MINI Intelligent Personal Assistant.
A spoken "Hey MINI!" activates the first fully-fledged voice assistant of the brand in the MINI Cooper Convertible. Navigation, telephony, entertainment, and numerous vehicle functions can be controlled simply and conveniently by speaking the relevant command to either a stylised MINI or the character “Spike”.
The MINI Intelligent Personal Assistant learns continuously through dialogue and can take on day-to-day tasks on repeated routes.
The curved dashboard is covered with a recycled polyester textile material which extends into the door trims and features a two-tone design. Rounding off the cockpit are comfortable front seats, made from full or half-Vescin depending on the specified trim level.
The rear of the vehicle offers space for up to three passengers and a sizeable 300 litres of boot space. With the rear seats folded flat in a 60:40 ratio, the luggage compartment can be expanded up to 1,005 litres as and when required.
