MINI 5 Door
The next-generation MINI 5 Door retains fan-friendly looks, but adds a host of cutting-edge technologies inside. Don’t miss the new “MINI Experience Modes,” which change the look, sound and feel of the cockpit. The powertrains are also revamped, including a 201-hp, turbocharged 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine in Cooper S trim. Look for 0-100 km/h sprints in 6.8 seconds but no manual transmission, sadly. Want a bigger MINI? Go with the Countryman instead.
