MINI Cooper Convertible S: open-top freedom meets smart features

The MINI Cooper Convertible S in Icy Sunshine Blue pairs a fast electric roof with driving assistants and seven personalized interior modes.

Open top, a vivid blue shade, and technology that might surprise even seasoned drivers — the new MINI Cooper Convertible S in Icy Sunshine Blue makes a bold statement for those who seek more than just a ride. Every detail hints at its summery spirit: the fully electric roof retracts in just 18 seconds and can even open while driving at speeds of up to 30 km/h.

But it’s not all about looks. The latest MINI is equipped with advanced driver assistance features. The Driving Assistant Plus package brings lane keeping and steering support systems that boost safety and ease, especially on highways. In tight city spots, the Professional Parking Assistant uses cameras and ultrasonic sensors to locate empty spaces and carry out both parallel and perpendicular parking autonomously.

Inside, the MINI's character truly comes alive. Seven distinct MINI Experience Modes let drivers tailor the interior vibe to their mood. GoKart Mode enhances the dashboard with sporty displays, echoing MINI’s racing DNA. Green Mode helps cut fuel use without compromising driving pleasure, while Personal Mode lets users upload personal photos to the digital cockpit, which dynamically adapts ambient lighting to match.

Technical specs are equally compelling: according to WLTP, fuel consumption ranges between 6.5 and 6.6 liters per 100 km, and CO₂ emissions are between 148 and 150 g/km. This places the model in CO₂ class E. In the context of growing environmental scrutiny across Europe, these figures may invite debate regarding taxation and sustainability, though for now the model strikes a solid balance between performance and practicality.

The MINI Cooper Convertible S in Icy Sunshine Blue isn’t just a car — it’s a way to savor summer with the sky above, without sacrificing comfort or innovation. With this release, MINI reinforces its role as a symbol of laid-back yet thoughtful urban mobility.
