A contrasting roof and bonnet stripes can be added.īasic equipment specs the same for the three trim levels, with more driver assistance and safety tech also on offer for this new car, including MINI's Park Assistant Plus, Digital Key Plus (which allows users to unlock their car with their smartphone) and Remote 360 surround-view monitoring system via the MyMINI app all available. Finally, Sport trim delivers the raciest look and feel, with multi-coloured knitted textiles, black synthetic leather seats with contrast red stitching and more gloss black for the car's grille and logos. Exclusive gets a two-tone houndstooth pattern for its knitted textile trim on the dash panel, perforated trim for its sports seats and the option of what MINI calls a “Spray-Tech” roof, which blends three different colours. Classic features a knitted textile interior, with black synthetic leather sports seats, amongst other items. Three trim levels will be offered: Classic, Exclusive and Sport. Optional high-speed 5G data connectivity and MINI's MyMINI app means the new Cooper is the brand's most connected car ever – and this extends to MINI's new “Hey MINI!” personal assistant, with owners also able to choose Spike, a digital depiction of a dog, as their avatar of choice. Opt for the MINI's native nav set-up and users can benefit from a “charge-optimised” routing function, while other tech includes an optional 3D head-up display. Boot space is up to 200 litres with the rear seats in place, rising to a maximum of 800 litres with the rear back rests folded down. They're joined by a strip on the tailgate, with all lighting featuring a welcome and a goodbye animation.Īdjusting the car's proportions has freed up more space inside – although having sat in the rear of the new MINI Cooper ahead of the car's unveiling, the rear seats are still tight. There's more customisable lighting at the rear, with the tail lights able to be customised, showing the familiar Union Flag signature, or a choice of other modes. At the front there's a new octagonal grille and MINI's trademark circular headlights, which are offered with three different LED running light signatures. MINI has removed chrome for a smarter, more minimalist look, while the EV's (larger) wheels have been pushed out towards the extremities of the body, improving packaging and space inside. Then it can be, definitely.“Inspired by our history, we have developed our own new design language, defining our DNA,” he told Auto Express, adding that the new car's appearance is “characterised by a clear, reduced design language intuitively focused on the essentials of the brand.” But, it isn’t going to be as cheap as a Honda or Toyota to maintain on average, unless you do a lot of the work yourself. They are great cars, and while certain years can be money pits, the newer models are well built. Which, you shouldn’t do with any car anyway, but you catch my drift. When the car says it’s due for something, you don’t ignore it. European cars are very reliable, but are very much designed with specific maintenance in mind. It’s not necessarily always expensive to maintain, but it’s not like an old Corolla where you can just do whatever and it’ll outlive society. You have to use Premium fuel and the correct oil, fluids, replacement pieces, etc. You can’t cut corners and expect it to run forever. That being said, MINI are German performance cars, and they’re designed to work within specific service and ownership processes as that’s just how German vehicles are designed. Overall, very reliable and has been since it launched. What kind of budget are you looking at? And do you have an idea or expectation on cost of maintenance?įrom a reliability standpoint, you’ll definitely want to look at a 2014-present Hardtop model, as it has the much more robust BMW engine.
