Munich, Germany. With compact proportions and an
efficient three-cylinder gasoline engine, the MINI Cooper C brings a
dynamic go-kart feeling to the road. The modern design with clear body
surfaces and distinctive front grille transfers the brand's tradition
into the present day. The minimalistic interior design combines clear
forms with generous space and a new central instrument.
In-Car Gaming makes it possible:
Increased digital
experience with new gaming fun.
The round central instrument with OLED display
combines all vehicle information and, in addition to innovative
assistance systems for navigation and vehicle control, includes
convenient operating functions for the driver and all occupants. In
addition, the OLED display in all models of the new MINI family offers
another digital innovation. Mattel, Inc., AirConsole, and MINI have
added in-car gaming in the new MINI Family with UNO, the world’s #1
traditional games property. Following the success of the previous BMW
integration, stationary drivers can connect any passenger to UNO Car
Party! via the infotainment system, using their personal devices for
up to four players. UNO’s simple, universal gameplay, transcending
languages and cultures, brings people together in a new entertainment
experience in the car. Vehicles must be in park to enable
gameplay.After the exciting pit stop game, it's back on the road in
the new MINI Cooper C — agile, aerodynamically optimised and effective.
The four trim variants Essential, Classic, Favoured and JCW
added the individual look of the MINI Cooper C with a wide range of
equipment options. For varied contrasts, the exterior colors can be
combined with one of four roof colors and thus provide opportunities
for individual characteristics.
The MINI Cooper C: Efficient drive and safe
comfort.
The 115 kW/156 hp three-cylinder engine of the
MINI Cooper C (combined fuel consumption: 6.2 l/100 km; combined CO2
emissions: 140 g/km in accordance with WLTP) achieves a torque of 230
Nm and accelerates the vehicle from standstill to 100 km/h in 7.7
seconds. The precisely coordinated suspension and damping system
guarantees the British premium small car agile handling — whether in
city traffic or on curved country roads. Powerful brakes and direct
steering ensure safety, comfort and driving pleasure in equal measure.
Numerous assistance systems for safe and comfortable
driving.
The new MINI Operating System 9 is intuitive
and easy to operate. Thanks to the unique OLED display and the
voice-controlled MINI Intelligent Personal Assistant, occupants have
more control, connectivity and personalization than ever before. MINI
Navigation helps you navigate through 3D visualization and augmented
view and, in addition to current information on traffic conditions,
also provides information on free parking spaces including an
integrated digital payment option and much more. Camera and
radar-based assistance functions increase safety and, if required,
assist with steering and lane keeping. In city traffic, stop-and-go
situations can be handled confidently thanks to automatic speed and
distance management.
