BMW Mini Cabrio Review Price and Specifications
The MINI Cabrio offers its occupants to fresh air, the breath way. The MINI Convertible can be the typical MINI go-kart feeling with all your senses. Its front view you can imagine this, at first glance. The latest generation of the MINI Convertible has a large tailgate as well as a variable interior.
There is hardly a small car on the market that is so good for a convertible like the Mini . Closely to the shape it has a structure with steeply dipping slices. This is normal for fresh air fans who want the great advantage.
Fears that the fresh air shower could turn out to be intense, are invalidated by the central switch with four electrically operated side windows. This allows to the dose turbulence in the interior of the Mini. A simple wind deflector gives the freedom to look up to. The soft top disappears behind the rear seats, the front portion moves in the style of a sliding roof over the heads of the front occupants, and thus almost completely from sight. Except for the still frame fixed on the disc, narrow guide rails are almost the same as for Outlook from completely open roof.
But the roof on the Mini One also has its downsides. Closed, the visibility is extremely limited at the rear quarter. Rear parking sensors are fitted as standard, but when maneuvering around a crowded supermarket it helps them very little.
When shopping, reveals a further deficiency of the mini-open: the tiny and hard to access goods compartment.

Passengers in the rear have already little space – especially for the legs. This differs from the sedan, the convertible is not as well and not to mention the confusing cockpit. Thanks to high torsional stiffness, it responds well in the open driving and is very agile on the orders of the direct steering, suspension; despite firmer crude shocks it remains on the sidelines. Thus, the Mini One Convertible makes the already converted more premium at 98-hp with a 1.6-liter base version which is the fun of the lot.
The price advantage shrinks when you consider the added amenities such as air conditioning, aluminum wheels. Although it has a start-stop system with brake energy recovery for the Mini One it is not an extra charge. With the consumption of 7.5 litres/100 km in the travel it is frugal enough. Fairly zippy acceleration calls for high speeds and frequent grip shifter for the six-speed gearbox, forcing along easy highway climbs is fine.
But who wants to save the Mini Convertible, must arm themselves anyway against numerous enticements to the extensive list of optional equipment. For the price of the Cooper- there for about one heated sports seats, leather steering wheel and metallic paint. Know more about BMW Mini and BMW Cabrio
