The exciting MINI Cooper S goes topless, as the German owned British icon is launched in India as a convertible. Priced at Rs 34.9 lakh ex-showroom, the MINI Convertible is offered in a staggering 13 different hues and about the same number of upholstery options as well. The soft-top roof closes electronically in just 18 seconds, and MINI have even included an app that taps into weather feeds and alerts you of impending rain. There’s also an innovative wind deflector built in for high-wind environments when driving with the top down.

The engine powering the MINI convertible is a BMW developed 2-litre inline four imbibed with TwinPower Turbo Technology mated to a six-speed automatic gearbox. All this results in 192 PS and 280 Nm of torque, with a claimed 0-100 km/h figure of 7.1 seconds and the claimed top whack is 233 km/h. There’s also a John Cooper Works or JCW kit available to make the car go even faster.

Philipp von Sahr, President, BMW Group India addressed the assembled media at the launch event in Goa. He said, “The all-new MINI Convertible is unapologetically outgoing. It’s a spontaneous and emotionally intensive way of savouring authentic MINI driving fun. A non-stop thrill behind the wheel for those who know there’s always a little more to feel. It is able to seize and share those intangible moments of pure joy precisely because of its contagious enthusiasm and its impulsive streak. It’s creates a world in technicolour, packed with impulse, emotion and unbridled energy.”

The MINI Convertible is available in showrooms across the country, and BMW have announced a price freeze for the month of March for all potential customers. Prices will be revised from April onwards to reflect changes in the budget.
