The fourth-generation MINI Cooper gives you a choice of Cabrio, five-door Mini and three-door Mini bodies. Consider passenger access, open-top driving and your daily journeys alongside the powertrain and equipment you choose.
MINI Cooper engine options include the gasoline JCW 2.0 DCT Cabrio and the gasoline 2.0 Steptronic five-door Mini, both with automated gearboxes that handle clutch operation and shifting for you. The electric AT three-door Mini pairs an electric motor with an automatic transmission. All three configurations use front-wheel drive. Your choice also determines whether everyday energy stops involve refuelling or charging.
For the gasoline 1.5 Steptronic five-door Mini, Classic and Favorite C are named equipment configurations. When comparing MINI Cooper trim levels, check which comfort features, cabin finishes and assistance systems each includes, and which require options. These equipment names relate to this configuration; they do not establish what comes with another engine or body style.
The electric AT and E AT three-door Mini configurations both use lithium-ion batteries. When comparing MINI Cooper battery capacity, distinguish usable energy from total capacity: usable energy is what supports your journeys. Battery chemistry alone does not establish range or make these versions equivalent. Temperature, speed and cabin heating affect real-world range, so consider your regular routes and access to charging when choosing.
