Australian buyers will now get more value for their dollar as MINI rolls out new better-equipped cars for the same price.
MINI Australia is updating their Hatch and MINI 5 Door models, including a more comprehensive list of standard equipment and technology while maintaining the same price for both. These new cars will be available at dealers starting in June.
The price for the 3-door Hatch model remains at $26,650 and so does the 5-Door model at $27,750 (excluding on-road costs). Both gain halogen fog lamps in their mid-spec variants, but for $1,500 more, the Cooper can be specified with the Multimedia Pack, adding satellite navigation, Bluetooth and USB audio streaming, and a reversing camera.
The Cooper S comes with more standard kit. Starting at $37,750 for the 3-door Hatch and $38,850 for the 5-door, the Cooper S now comes standard with LED daytime running lights, LED fog lamps, LED headlamps, reversing camera, satellite navigation, rear parking sensors, drive mode select, front sports seats, and automatic headlights.
For an extra $1,500 on the Cooper S, the Control package can be added that brings adaptive LED headlights, a tyre pressure monitoring system, and active safety features such as forward collision warning, and city crash mitigation (AEB).
Both the Cooper and Cooper S models are powered by the same engines as before: a 1.5-litre turbocharged 3-cylinder producing 100kW/220Nm powers the base Cooper while a 141kW/280Nm 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder mill sits under the Cooper S’ bonnet.
