2016 MINI John Cooper Works Hardtop More Refined


WEBWIRE

Irvine MINI is excited to confirm, the once simple formula of the hot hatch has greatly evolved over the years. Evolved and, it must be said, matured. Buyers of the original Mini Cooper had little in the way of creature comforts, and “refinement” isn’t a word many would apply to that little thing, but that certainly didn’t prevent it from becoming an icon.

Fifty-odd years on, the formula has also fragmented, and today’s Mini fits within a very competitive landscape of hatchback cars that offer some degree of sporting pretensions and more power than is strictly necessary. How to differentiate? Why, add even greater power, bigger brakes, better handling and a big wing on the back.

Meet the 2016 MINI John Cooper Works Hardtop, the most powerful Mini yet. The 2.0-liter inline-four with its TwinPower Turbo, has been dialed up to 228 horsepower and a very healthy 236 foot-pounds of torque. That’s enough to bring the 2,885-pound car from zero to 60 mph in just 5.9 seconds -- 6.1 if you opt for the six-speed manual transmission.

Irvine MINI’s helpful and knowledgeable staff, expert factory-trained technicians, state-of-the-art service department, comprehensive parts department and one of the nation’s largest selections of new, used and certified pre-owned MINI’s have made Irvine MINI a landmark in Southern California’s automotive landscape.
