The 2019 MINI Hardtop 2 Door is an iconic compact car that maintains its fun-to-drive ethos while offering modern tech and safety amenities. It is part of the third generation which began in 2014. The engine options are a 134-hp turbocharged 1.5L 3-cylinder for the base Cooper variant and a 189-hp turbo 2.0L 4-cylinder for the sporty Cooper S. Both pair with a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission and are FWD. An 8.8" touchscreen is standard, featuring Apple CarPlay (but not Android Auto). The 2019 model gains standard automated emergency braking, forward-collision warning, and a rearview camera, putting it on par with its competitors in terms of safety. The small stature of the MINI Hardtop 2 Door doesn't impede its ability to leave a big impression, with its nostalgic aesthetics and agile handling.
