Maximum John Cooper Works Performance.
In keeping with John Cooper Works models of the past, the latest MINI John Cooper Works and MINI John Cooper Works Convertible carry over the anticipated go-kart handling and performance from previous generations.

A 2.0l, four-cylinder TwinPower Turbo engine powers both the MINI John Cooper Works (consumption combined: 6.8 – 6.5 l/62 miles; CO2 emissions combined: 154 - 147 g/km according to WLTP) and MINI John Cooper Works Convertible (combined fuel consumption: 7.1 – 6.8/62 miles; CO2 emissions combined: 161 - 155 g/km according to WLTP), producing 231hp and 380Nm of torque. Both models receive an additional 74hp when compared with the MINI Cooper C and MINI Cooper C Convertible.

The MINI John Cooper Works offers a 0-62mph time of 6.1 seconds and a top speed of 155mph, while the MINI John Cooper Works Convertible hits 0-62mph in 6.4 seconds and has a top speed of 152mph. To allow for a more dynamic acceleration, the new John Cooper Works models receive a dual-clutch automatic transmission and enhanced suspension to increase handling ability.

A purist design exterior. 
The iconic exterior appearance of the MINI Cooper has remained consistent in these latest models but elevated further to meet the high standards of the John Cooper Works badge. A centrally mounted single-exit exhaust system is offered for the first time, alongside a sculpted black rear diffuser, red JCW branded brake callipers and additional alloy wheel options.

The MINI John Cooper Works comes as standard with 17” JCW Sprint Spoke alloy wheels in black, Chili Red exterior paint and an aerodynamically shaped rear spoiler. 18” JCW Lap Spoke 2-tone wheels are available optionally, alongside six other body colours.

The MINI John Cooper Works Convertible is offered as standard with Chili Red exterior paint, 17” JCW Sprint Spoke alloy wheels and a choice of seven further body colours optionally, including model exclusive Cooper Grey.

Both cars have an option of Jet Black or Chili Red mirror caps, while LED headlights - with daytime horizontal JCW specific running lights - come as standard to complete the exterior.

Race-inspired interior.
The purist design of the exterior is continued throughout the inside of the vehicles, with a Vescin/Cord combination in JCW black with red accents. The John Cooper Works seats are upholstered in black synthetic leather with knitted red stitching which provide firm support for dynamic driving. A knitted surface on the dashboard and seats offer a chequered flag pattern, nodding back to the motorsport roots of John Cooper Works, alongside stainless-steel pedals and a JCW sport steering wheel with branded six-o’clock fabric spoke.

The interior is focused on the high-resolution OLED display and toggle bar found in the rest of the MINI family. The new 24cm central instrument display provides relevant information at all times and can be easily operated by the driver and passenger. MINI Experience Modes - Vivid, Core, Green, Timeless, Balance and Personal allow the ambience in the interior to be customised to further the personalisation of the cars, while new JCW mode additionally shows performance related data including power, torque, engine temperature and a G-Force meter.

Offering an increase in standard specification, both models receive Level 1 as standard, which includes a Head-Up display, Wireless Charging, High Beam Assist, Heated Front Seats and Exterior Mirror Package. Each model additionally receives Harmon Kardon as standard.    

Advanced assistance systems.
Both John Cooper Works variants are well-equipped as standard to support the driver. Thanks to 12 ultrasonic sensors and four surround view cameras, the vehicle can identify real-world traffic conditions such as automatic speed and distance control as well as aiding the driver when it comes to parking, offering the chance to indicate automatic parking manoeuvres independently as a part of Parking Assistant Plus. Sensors also aid the driver when driving at high speed, with steering and lane keeping as standard. Equipped in this way, the MINI John Cooper Works models combine dynamic driving fun with safe comfort and usability for daily driving.

The MINI John Cooper Works and MINI John Cooper Works Convertible are available to order from retailers now, with pricing starting from £31,200 RRP and £35,200 RRP respectively.

CO2 emission information.

The values for fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and energy consumption shown were determined in a standardised test cycle according to the European Regulation (EC) 715/2007 in the version currently applicable. The figures refer to a vehicle with basic configuration in Germany and the range shown considers transmission (automatic or manual) and the different wheels and tyres available on the selected model and may vary during the configuration.

The values of the vehicles labelled with (*), are already based on the test cycle according to the new WLTP regulation and are translated back into NEDC-equivalent values in order to allow a comparison between vehicles. More information on the transition from NEDC to WLTP test procedures can be found here.

These figures are intended for comparison purposes and may not be representative of what a user achieves under usual driving conditions. For plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery electric vehicles the figures have been obtained using a combination of battery power and petrol fuel after the battery had been fully charged. Plug-in hybrid vehicles and battery electric vehicles require mains electricity for charging. The CO2 emissions labels are determined according to Directive 1999/94/EC and the Passenger Car (Fuel consumption and CO2 Emissions Information) Regulations 2001, as amended. They are based on the fuel consumption, CO2 values and energy consumptions according to the NEDC cycle.

A guide on fuel economy and CO2 emissions which contains data for all new passenger car models is available at any point of sale free of charge. For further information you can also visit this link.
