Keep it wild with the John Cooper Works Tuning Kit for the new MINI
Cooper S, now available to give an additional boost under the bonnet to
what is already the most powerful version of the compact premium model.
In addition, the MINI brand has even more John Cooper Works components
on offer for fans, including a sports chassis and numerous options in
the accessory range designed to quicken the pulse and put motor racing
passion into everyday driving. With the John Cooper Works Tuning Kit
for the MINI Cooper S, the output of the 1.6 litre twin scroll turbo
engine is increased to an impressive 141 kW/192 bhp, with maximum
torque up to 250 Newton metres in the engine speed range between 1750
and 5000 rpm. With the overboost function, the torque level can even be
increased temporarily to 270 Nm for powerful acceleration in the engine
speed range from 1750 to 4500 rpm. "The John Cooper Works
components on offer are enough to set the heart racing of aficionados
of the new MINI Cooper and MINI Cooper S," said Raymond Gedeon,
MINI Brand Manager, BMW Group Middle East. "The Works Tuning Kit
inputs more power and more individuality into the MINI than ever
before. Not only does it enhance the dynamic potential of the new MINI
Cooper S, but also increases its charismatic sporty appeal." The
sporty look of the new MINI Cooper and MINI Cooper S can be further
refined with the appropriate ingredients from the John Cooper Works
collection. The sports chassis not only ensures even more agile
handling, but also lowers the suspension by 10 millimetres. In keeping
with this, John Cooper Works provides an aerodynamic body kit in body
colour - consisting of a front and rear apron and side sills - as well
as 18-inch light alloy wheels in various versions. These can be ideally
combined with other numerous features from the John Cooper Works
accessory range to enhance the car's sporting spirit, such as
aerodynamic packages in body colour, a John Cooper Works carbon roof
spoiler, John Cooper Works sports seats, the John Cooper Works sports
steering wheel and selected equipment components made of
carbon-fibre-reinforced plastic.
