Tokyo. The Japan Mobility Show is a showcase for innovation and mobility. Attending the show also provides an opportunity to discover the diversity and beauty of Japan away from the metropolis of Tokyo. The drive along the Irohazaka Road, a spectacular, winding mountain road in the Nikko region, combines driving pleasure with breathtaking nature.

The journey begins in the centre of the Japanese capital and continues north to Nikko National Park, around 180 km away. The Irohazaka Road starts there, connecting Nikko National Park with the Oku-Nikko plateau and leading through the most beautiful colours of autumn. However, it is not only a scenic highlight, but also a challenge for drivers - the perfect stage for cornering fun with the MINI John Cooper Works. Equipped with a powerful 2.0-litre four-cylinder twin-turbo petrol engine with 231 hp (170 kW) and a maximum torque of 380 Nm, each of the 48 bends becomes pure driving pleasure.

The seven-speed automatic transmission with dual clutch gives the powerful three-door model intense acceleration, perfect for winding roads. Standard paddle shifters offer the driver additional control over performance. The specially tuned suspension provides the typical go-kart feeling with agile handling, while the Chilli Red painted brake system with JCW logo guarantees maximum braking precision and safety even in demanding situations.

Whether in the city, on narrow mountain roads or in open passages - the MINI John Cooper Works impresses with its outstanding driving dynamics and agile handling, which make it the ideal companion for demanding roads and adventurous journeys. The drive along the Irohazaka road emphasises the core values of the MINI brand: Passion, precision and pure driving pleasure.
