The first “three-box” MINI also sits 52mm or 2.05-inches lower than its three-door hatchback counterpart. Notably, it also features an active rear spoiler that extends automatically at 80 km/h (50 mph) to optimize airflow at highway speeds.
Inside, the Coupé keeps the hatchback model’s familiar dashboard design and layout sprinkled with new colors and exclusive trim materials. The absence of a rear seat bench creates a larger 280-litre boot that can also be opened from the driver’s or passenger’s seat. Mini has tried to improve the car’s practicality with the larger door bins, three cupholders and a cross-rack behind the seats.
Under the skin, the British company says it has tweaked the Coupé’s chassis to further improve handling over the hatchback models.
Depending on the market, the two-door MINI will offer buyers a choice of three 1.6-liter four-cylinder petrol engines, including a naturally aspirated version with 122HP for the base Cooper, plus turbocharged variants with 184HP for the Cooper S and 211HP for the flagship John Cooper Works model. There’s also a 2.0-liter turbo diesel churning out 143HP for the Cooper SD.
In the UK, on-the-road prices have been set at £16,640 for the 122HP Cooper, £19,775 for the 184HP Cooper S, £20,510 for the diesel-powered Cooper SD and £23,795 for the 211HP JCW model.
While MINI’s press blurb did not mention anything about U.S. prices, Autoweek reported that the company has released pricing information with the base Cooper starting at $22,000, the S variant at $25,300 and the JCW at $31,900, with all prices including a $700 destination fee.
Albeit different in philosophy, it's worth mentioning that the Coupe is priced on par with Chevy’s Camaro (312HP V6 starts at $22,805, 426HP V8 from $31,070) with the JCW being more expensive than BMW’s own entry level 128i Coupe with its 230HP inline-six ($30,950).
