Munich. Open-top driving fun in the world's only
premium convertible in the small car segment advances to the next
stage. The new MINI Convertible (combined fuel consumption: 6.5 -
3.8 l/100 km, combined CO2 emissions: 152 - 100 g/km) is raring to go
and ready to greet the upcoming spring season. The open-top 4-seater
goes out to dealerships on March 5th 2016 – with elegantly stretched
lines, a noticeable increase in sporty flair, the matured product
substance of the new MINI generation and available in five engine
variants. At the same time, the market launch of the new
MINI John Cooper Works Convertible sees the start of extreme sporty
driving fun under the open sky.
The new MINI Convertible is presented with a wide range of
exclusive equipment features for open-air pleasure in the style that
is typical of the British premium brand. Its fully automatic soft top
– purely electrically powered for the first time – is also available
as a MINI Yours roof complete with unique integrated Union Jack
graphic. Other options include the Always Open Timer, automatic air
conditioning with convertible mode and the MINI Connected rain warning
function. In order to ensure that driving fun on the sunny side is
both agile and safe, there is cutting-edge drive and suspension
technology, an extremely rigid body structure and the now fully
integrated rollover protection.
Three petrol and two diesel engines of the latest generation
with MINI TwinPower Turbo Technology are available to choose from for
the MINI Convertible. The new MINI John Cooper Works Convertible
likewise lines up for the start with a 170 kW/231 hp 4-cylinder turbo
engine.
