1. At a Glance.

The Hatches. MINI with a Fixed Roof and Tailgate.

• The strong MINI character: attractive trio entering the market in autumn:

Entering the market in October, three new models in unique design - the MINI
Seven (lifestyle orientation), the MINI Park Lane (exclusive) and the MINI
Checkmate (sporting) - will be extending the MINI model range. Offering a high
level of features and equipment, exclusive metallic paintwork, new wheels,
upholstery, design features and interior surfaces, the three new models give
the customer even more MINI at attractive prices.

• MINI One: welcome to the MINI family!

The "basic" model offering excellent value for money comes as standard with
that special MINI go-kart feeling and is available with both a manual gearbox
and automatic transmission. 90 hp/66 kW give the "smallest" MINI a top speed of
181 km/h or 112 mph.

• MINI One D: more diesel power for the compact athlete:

The agile diesel model now comes with even more power and torque. Developing 88
hp and massive torque of 190 Nm/140 lb-ft, this outstanding diesel engine
excels in particular through its good fuel economy (4.8 ltr/100 km in the
composite EU cycle, equal to 58.8 mpg Imp). Precisely this makes the MINI One D
the optimum combination of all-round economy and driving pleasure.

• MINI Cooper: the great story of success:

No other MINI has won over as many enthusiastic aficionados worldwide as the
MINI Cooper. With sporting performance ensured by maximum output of 115 hp/85
kW and with its roof finished in a different colour, the MINI Cooper is the
most popular model in the range. Innumerable combinations and a wide choice of
equipment features enable the customer to turn every MINI Cooper into his or
her personal, one-off dream car. Also available with automatic transmission.

• MINI Cooper S: the driving machine:

Impressive performance and first-class handling - these are the
outstanding fortes of the top-of-the-range compressor engine
model featuring a six-speed manual gearbox and sports suspension. 170 hp/125 kW
make this a genuine sports car in MINI clothes. At the same time the optional
six-speed automatic transmission including gearshift paddles and the
limited-slip differential make the joy of motoring even greater than before,
particularly on winding roads and in hairpin bends.

The Open-Air Versions.

• MINI One Convertible: nothing but the sky above:

Like all MINI Convertibles, this chic four-seater with its fully automatic soft
roof and the integrated sliding roof section combines practical value with
maximum fun on the road. Powered by 90 hp/66 kW to take you out to a world full
of sunshine.

• MINI Cooper Convertible: the athlete:

Benefiting from their clever concept, all MINI Convertibles offer optimum space
and practical value with up to 605 litres storage capacity. Further fortes are
the car's wide range of features and equipment as well as optimum occupant
safety. In the MINI Cooper Convertible 115 hp/85 kW allow you to forget all
your worries, with either manual or automatic transmission.

• MINI Cooper S Convertible: the open-air top model:

Discreet understatement and first-class features and equipment combined with
sports car performance - these are the outstanding strengths of this open-air
driving machine. Maximum output of 170 hp/125 kW makes your dreams come true,
with the optional six-speed automatic transmission including gearshift paddles
adding further style and comfort.

MINI Accessories. For even more Fun at the Wheel.

• John Cooper Works:

The John Cooper Works tuning kit gives the MINI Cooper S maximum output of 210
hp/155 kW and peak torque of 245 Nm/181 lb-ft, creating a genuine wolf in sheep'
s clothing. Acceleration to 100 km/h comes in 6.6 seconds, top speed is 230
km/h or 143 mph. And John Cooper Works also offers a wide range of additional
products and features for the genuine MINI fan wishing to highlight the racing
DNA of his or her car.

• Original MINI Accessories:

MINI Accessories make each and every model even more individual and personal,
helping to enhance the car's practical value, comfort and safety. Clever and
convenient transport solutions such as the new rear-end carrier, ISOFIX child
seats, and the iPod interface make travelling in your MINI even safer, more
pleasant and entertaining.

CO2 emission information.

The values for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and energy consumption shown were determined in a standardised test cycle according to the European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the version currently applicable. The figures refer to a vehicle with basic configuration in Germany and the range shown considers transmission (automatic or manual) and the different wheels and tyres available on the selected model and may vary during the configuration.

The values of the vehicles labelled with (*), are already based on the test cycle according to the new WLTP regulation and are translated back into NEDC-equivalent values in order to allow a comparison between vehicles. More information on the transition from NEDC to WLTP test procedures can be found here.

These figures are intended for comparison purposes and may not be representative of what a user achieves under usual driving conditions. For plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery electric vehicles the figures have been obtained using a combination of battery power and petrol fuel after the battery had been fully charged. Plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery electric vehicles require mains electricity for charging. The CO2 emissions labels are determined according to Directive 1999/94/EC and the Passenger Car (Fuel consumption and CO2 Emissions Information) Regulations 2001, as amended. They are based on the fuel consumption, CO2 values and energy consumptions according to the NEDC cycle.

A guide on fuel economy and CO2 emissions which contains data for all new passenger car models is available at any point of sale free of charge. For further information you can also visit this link.
