The MINI Cooper S Roadster is always ready for the best of all adventures: curves. That's where it likes to be the most. Preferably with the soft top down, so the passengers can experience every change in the wind direction directly.
So you can get back up to speed quickly at the end of every zigzag course, the overboost function of the new MINI Cooper S Roadster enables torque to be increased from 240 to 260 Nm.
The exciting two-seater reaches further performance peaks on a straight road – when permitted. The needle on the speedometer goes from 0 to 100 km/h within 7.0 [7.2] s. But that's not all by far. The four-cylinder twin-scroll turbo (winner of four awards) pushes the MINI Cooper S Roadster to a maximum of 227 [222] km/h.
At 80 km/h the rear spoiler extends electrically to make sure the most is made of the airflow. It reduces the lift on the rear axis, giving excellent road holding.
Although the passengers should make sure they drink enough in summer, the MINI Cooper S Roadster always has a surprising lack of thirst. Thanks to MINIMALISM it consumes only 6.0 [6.6] l/100 km. In any weather, of course. Innovative technology helps to save fuel: the Auto Start Stop Function switches off the motor when you stop and at traffic lights. Brake Energy Regeneration charges the alternator batteries as soon as the driver’s foot leaves the accelerator. The gear shift indicator shows the most fuel-efficient point for the next gear change.
