With eyes fixed on capturing a slice of the market in the popular convertible Mazda MX-5, MINI unveiled the final production version of the Roadster.
The Roadster is the top Cup variant introduced earlier this summer, and is the sixth model to add to the MINI line and the first two-seater convertible in the history of the brand.
As the Coupe Roadster is based on the current Mini sedan, so it is not too surprising that its dimensions are similar to the convertible Mini 3734 mm long, 1683 mm wide and 1390 mm high.
Unlike Roadster Convertible is only room for two other changes, such as the steeply raked windshield (13 degrees), and 20 mm lower. Since the rear seats have almost doubled in the luggage capacity that stands at 240 liters.
The British brand also promises a more "go-kart feel" thanks to the four-seater convertible to the center of gravity, set custom chassis, rigidity and aerodynamics.
In addition to the bell, no other cosmetic differences within or between the coupe and roadster, while the motor power are the same.
In Europe, the Roadster will be launched next spring on four basic tastes, including Cooper with 122HP 1.6-liter gasoline, SD Cooper with 143HP 2.0-liter turbo diesel, petrol Cooper S with 184HP 1.6-liter turbo and the ship John Cooper Works badge model with a 1.6-liter gasoline turbo pushing 211HP.
In North America, the roadster will likely only be available with gasoline engines.
Transmission choices include a gearbox 6-speed manual for all models and a 6-speed automatic transmission for all variants outside the JCW.
