The 2024 MINI Hardtop 4 Door is a stylish and fun-to-drive small car that stands out in the crowded market with its distinctive looks and premium feeling interior. It's part of the third generation that debuted in 2014. Under the hood, it houses a 1.5-litre 3-cylinder engine producing 134 horsepower for the base Cooper trim, stepping up to a turbocharged 2.0-litre 4-cylinder engine churning out 189 horsepower for the Cooper S trim. The transmission is a seven-speed dual-clutch automatic, but a six-speed manual is also available as an option. Driving dynamics are regulated by a standard front-wheel-drive arrangement. However, it does not compromise on safety, providing features like forward-collision warning, automated emergency braking, and lane-departure warning as standard. On the tech front, it offers a host of features that include a standard 8.8-inch touchscreen infotainment system, Apple CarPlay, and an optional 12-speaker Harman Kardon sound system. The 2024 model year sees little change over its predecessor, but the addition of the Piano Black exterior package in the options list.
