With 11 new variants and a first-of-its-kind loyalty programme, prospective customers will be spoilt for choice when these cars hit our shores.

MINI Asia and Eurokars Habitat jointly announced the availability of the fourth-generation MINI range in Singapore. The new models showcase an update in design and technology.

20 years after the launch of the modern MINI, the latest model generation presents itself in top form. Today, MINI is the epitome of agile driving combined with a distinguished, unmistakable look.

Across the range, a new, reduced and particularly clear design language directs the eye to the essentials. Notable highlights include a larger grille forming a single unbroken hexagon, as well as fog lights being replaced by air intakes that improves aerodynamics.

The round hallmark MINI headlights with LED technology feature black inner housings. These updates create a more dominant front end for each MINI.

In addition, the side indicators integrated into the redesigned side scuttles now feature LED technology.

The rear has also received significant design updates with model-specific rear apron geometry. A black surround picks up the hexagonal shape of the radiator grille.

Across all variants, the new MINI features the rear LED lights in the Union Jack design, and the rear fog light is now integrated into the rear apron as a narrow LED unit.

The MINI Convertible combines the enthusiasm for open-top driving pleasure with clever functionality. The textile soft top can be opened and closed within 18 seconds. It can also be activated while driving at speeds of up to 30 km/h.

For a precisely dosed supply of fresh air and sunlight, the front section of the soft top can be continuously retracted by up to 40 centimetres. This sunroof function is available at any speed.

The choice of body paint finishes for the new MINIs includes three new colours. These are Rooftop Grey metallic, Island Blue metallic and Zesty Yellow.

A Piano Black Exterior option is available, giving exterior accents such as badging a high-gloss black finish.

The range of light-alloy wheels available for the MINI has also been extensively renewed. Five new variants will be made available to buyers, providing more options to customise your unique MINI.

In line with the new “reduced design” approach, the new MINI interior is much more refined, with less chrome and a reworking of the dashboard layout. All MINI models receive a new sports leather steering wheel as standard, with a new design of the wheel spokes and a black panel concept for the multifunction controls.

In addition, a 5-inch digital screen behind the steering wheel is fitted as standard. First seen on the MINI John Cooper Works GP, it is now available on all variants across the range.

The central infotainment system is now an 8.8-inch touchscreen surrounded by a laser engraved LED ring. The operating system controller on the centre console is also an all-black surface in conjunction with the navigation system.

For the first time, the Connected Navigation package is standard across all variants. All customers can enjoy the MINI navigation system which includes Real Time Traffic Information, ensuring that they are kept on the best possible route.

Wireless Apple CarPlay is also available for drivers to stay plugged in on the go, and wireless charging ensures that smartphones are kept charged as well.

Powerful and efficient engines

Powerful and efficient petrol engines with three or four cylinders constitute the drive portfolio for the MINI 3-Door, MINI 5-Door, and the MINI Convertible, being integrated with MINI TwinPower Turbo technology.

Thanks to consistently optimised emission control technology, which includes a petrol engine particulate filter, all model variants comply with the Euro 6d emission standard.

The One and Cooper variants are combined with a 7-speed Steptronic transmission with double clutch as standard, while the Cooper S variant for all models features a 7-speed Steptronic Sport transmission with double clutch.

With its 135 kW/184 hp electric motor, the MINI Electric provides emission-free driving fun. Power is transmitted via a single-stage automatic transmission.

The high-voltage lithium-ion battery, which is located deep in the vehicle floor and has a gross energy content of 32.6 kWh, enables a range of up to 232 kilometres as determined in the WLTP test cycle.

Comprehensive Driving Assistant package

For the first time, the Driving Assistant package is fitted as standard for all versions of the MINI range. This camera-based system increases safety on the road by recognising and reporting potential dangers.

Notable features in the Driving Assistant package include Park Distance Control, Lane Departure warning, and cruise control with braking function. In addition, a camera-based speed and distance control helps the driver automatically keep a safe distance from the vehicle in front, and the speed limit information system detects and displays speed limits as they apply to the current section of road.

The MINI Electric additionally includes a digital high-beam assistant with Adaptive LED Matrix Headlights – this is particularly useful when travelling at night in areas that are not well-lit.

MINI App

The new MINI App offers an advanced user experience that is completely oriented towards a digital lifestyle. It allows drivers to contact their MINI at any time. The car doors can be remotely locked and unlocked via the app as well.

The MINI App, which can currently be downloaded free of charge from the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store, serves as a universal interface between the smartphone or other personal devices and the car.
