Turbocharged Compact Convertibles

This MINI Convertible Offers a Full-Throttle, Fresh Air Drive

— May 4, 2016 — Autos
The latest and greatest version of the MINI convertible vehicle is a wonderfully engineered vehicle that is designed to cater to and respond to some specific feedback that drivers and passengers of previous editions of MINI convertibles had.

Perhaps the most common gripe many people had with the previous version of the MINI convertible is the fact that it wasn't really catered towards people who want to have their cake and eat it too, as in people who both want to enjoy the fresh air of a convertible as well as top-notch speed. This is what prompted the creation of the John Cooper Works Convertible version of the MINI. This vehicle is equipped with a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder turbocharged engine that is capable of pumping out 231 horsepower.

Ultimately, this vehicle will appeal to convertible lovers who also have a real need for speed.

Industry Implications
