Mini Cooper

View all Mini Vehicles

Current Model

The redesigned, fifth-generation Mini Cooper, launched only as a 2-door hatchback, is immediately recognizable, but that familiar styling houses a transformed interior. The cabin is more minimalist than before; there is no instrument panel, just a large, circular center screen.

A head-up display is available, with augmented reality that can overlay navigation directions atop roads. The base Cooper produces about 156 hp from a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, and the sportier Cooper S creates 201 hp from a turbocharged version of that engine. The automaker claims 0-60 mph sprints can tick by in 6.3 seconds. Both engines are matched to a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. Active safety and driver assistance features have not been announced.

2024

The Mini hardtop is sporty, quirky, and full of character. We got 30 mpg overall in from the 189-hp, turbo four-cylinder Cooper S we tested with the six-speed manual.

The base 134-hp, 1.5-liter turbo three-cylinder is surprisingly energetic, though it sounds gritty at low revs. Handling is nimble and sporty, making the Mini fun to drive on curvy back roads. The ride is somewhat firm, however, and road noise is noticeable. Controls take some getting used to, and the back seat is still tiny. The high-performance John Cooper Works version bumps power to 228 hp and gets a firmer suspension. The wagonlike Clubman, which shares its platform with the BMW X1, is longer and wider, and has small barn-style rear doors. An all-electric version is available with a short EPA-estimated 114-mile driving range. BSW, RCTW, and highway-speed AEB aren't available.

2014-2023

2014 Redesign Year

The redesigned 2014 Cooper grew wider and longer, rides better, and has more normal controls. Improved ride and better noise isolation make it more suitable for longer drives and up to date connectivity for the time was welcomed.

Even with these improvements, the Mini's frisky character and unmatched charm remain intact. The base turbocharged three-cylinder is surprisingly powerful, and the turbo four-cylinder in the S is strong. We got 31 mpg with the base car, and 30 in the S. While the automatic works well, the manual transmission better fits the Mini's nature. If you want a fun little car, go for the base Mini. But if you want something really sporty, check out the Cooper S. Beyond that, keep things simple. New features for 2016 include an available Sports package with driver-adjustable suspension settings. Updates for 2020 included standard forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking.

2007-2013

2007 Redesign Year

We really enjoy the Mini Cooper's excellent handling and performance. Nimble, quick and more refined, this 2007 redesign continues to be a lot of fun to drive.

However, the ride quality of our S model test car was very stiff. Further, the design compromises practicality with its tiny rear seat and small trunk. This is a car you get because it's fun, rather than because it's practical. The larger and somewhat more practical Clubman arrived in 2008 with a small third door and a useful back seat.

2002-2006

2002 Redesign Year

The Mini Cooper is fun to drive and has plenty of head- and legroom up front. This version uses a small four-cylinder engine, paired with a slick manual, a CVT in early versions, or a responsive six-speed automatic.

Handling is agile, with quick, precise steering and very little body roll. However, the ride can be choppy. The base engine lacks oomph, but the Cooper S, in early supercharged or later turbocharged form, is quick. A short windshield limits visibility, the rear seat is tiny, and the stylized controls and gauges are a confusing jumble. But if you're looking for a car with character, the Mini Cooper has lots of it.
