2025 Mini Cooper S Convertible: A Thrilling Ride with Style

Looking for a fun and stylish convertible without breaking the bank? The 2025 Mini Cooper S Convertible offers the perfect balance of performance, design, and affordability.

What's the Deal with the Mini Cooper S Convertible?

With the 2025 Mini Cooper S Convertible, you get a turbocharged punch without emptying your wallet. Here’s what makes this car stand out:

  • Turbocharged Engine: A 2.0-liter inline-four engine delivering 201 horsepower and 221 lb-ft of torque.
  • Fast & Fun: A 0-60 mph time of around 6 seconds (our tests clocked it at 5.8 seconds, by the way).
  • Front-Wheel Drive: The front-wheel-drive system paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic offers a smooth yet responsive driving experience.

For those seeking a convertible with a lot of gusto, the Cooper S provides a fun driving experience at a reasonable price point. It's a performance car with the personality you want, but without the high-end price tag of the John Cooper Works version.

Performance & Driving Experience

The 2025 Mini Cooper S Convertible doesn't just look good — it drives like a dream. Whether you're cruising down the highway or zipping through winding roads, here’s what you can expect:

  • Powerful Engine: The turbocharged 2.0-liter engine offers plenty of low-end torque, giving you a satisfying acceleration experience.
  • Smooth Transmission: The 7-speed dual-clutch automatic shifts smoothly and remains unobtrusive, keeping the driving experience as enjoyable as possible.
  • Ride Quality: While the ride is firm (closer to the base Cooper), it’s still comfortable enough to handle city streets without feeling jarring.

The Cooper S Convertible handles like a pro. It’s agile, responsive, and, of course, plenty of fun with the top down. Just make sure you drop the top fully for the best experience — the partial sunroof position can get a little noisy. But once that roof is stowed, you’ll be cruising in comfort!

Design & Comfort

The Mini Cooper S Convertible doesn’t sacrifice style for functionality. Here’s a closer look at the design and comfort features:

  • Convertible Roof: The two-stage retractable roof offers a sunroof option at lower speeds and fully retracts in just 18 seconds.
  • Interior Space: While the rear seats are tight, the front row offers plenty of room for two. But if you’re tall, you might want to reconsider sitting in the back!
  • Trunk Capacity: The trunk holds only 5 cubic feet of space, but a clever two-stage trunk design helps maximize storage capacity when you need it most.

If you’re feeling extra adventurous, the convertible roof is available with a fun Union Jack print — though we recommend thinking twice if you’re driving through South Boston.
