There is a body-colored trim in the center of the grille, with an air dam below. The side profile features 18-inch alloy wheels as standard, with plastic cladding on all four sides, giving the car a sporty look. At the rear, Mini’s signature Union Jack design LED taillights are provided. The tailgate opens downwards and can support around 80 kg, which is considered a unique feature for a convertible car. Inside the cabin, the design gives a premium and modern feel.
In terms of features, this car is equipped with state-of-the-art facilities. It features a head-up display, wireless charger, ambient light projection on the dashboard, and a rear-view camera for convenience. A Harman Kardon sound system is available for music lovers, while connected car technology is offered with an OLED screen for advanced technology. All these features combine to make the driving experience more fun, especially for an open-top convertible.
