The MINI Cooper, MINI Cooper S, MINI Cooper Convertible, and MINI Cooper S Countryman are available in six-speed automatic transmission. Powered by efficient petrol engines, the ex-showroom prices of the new MINI cars in India could seem a bit steep considering they are being bought in as completely built units (CBU’s).

President, BMW Group India, Dr. Andreas Schaaf had this to say. “Around the world, MINI has become a byword in the premium small car segment for expressive design, premium quality and unmistakable driving fun. MINI’s innovative profile has enabled the brand to win over a trend-conscious and quality-oriented target group. With the launch of MINI, the BMW Group debuts in the premium small car segment in India. In the start-up phase, BMW Group’s main focus will be to concentrate on successfully establishing the MINI brand in India. At a later stage, the BMW Group will focus on further development of dealer network and higher sales volumes.”

The MINI Cooper has been launched in India for a price of Rs. 24,90,000. The MINI Cooper S has been launched in India for a price of Rs. 27,90,000, and the MINI Cooper Convertible is available at Rs.29, 99,000 lakhs. The MINI Cooper S Countryman costs Rs. 31,99,000. The MINI isn’t just about owning a car. It’s distinctive design tells it apart, and this is backed by optimum performance and noteworthy efficiency.
