The MINI Cooper Convertible is a true British icon, and the 2025 model is its fourth generation, originally introduced in 2004. In India, it is available in only one petrol variant, the Cooper S Convertible in the Favored Pack, which is priced at ₹58.50 lakh (ex-showroom). For reference, the MINI Cooper hatchback starts at ₹43.70 lakh. This generation is codenamed F67 and is assembled in Oxfordshire, UK. Buyers can book it online as a CBO (Completely Built Overseas) model, with EMIs starting from around ₹58,500 per month through MINI Smart Finance.
MINI offers a 2-year unlimited kilometre warranty, which can be extended to 10 years, along with 2 years of 24/7 roadside assistance. The car is built on BMW’s UKL1 platform, which also underpins the Cooper hatch and five door versions. It is a front-wheel-drive convertible that follows MINI’s new “Charismatic Simplicity” design philosophy under designer Oliver Heilmer.

Viewed from the front, the MINI Cooper S Convertible features an octagonal grille with Cooper S badging, active cooling air ducts, front parking sensors and iconic round LED headlamps with three selectable light signatures, cornering lights and high-beam assist. Other highlights include rain-sensing wipers, electrically adjustable auto-dimming ORVMs with logo projection, black mirror caps (white optional), and frameless windows.
The car is 3.9 metres long, 2 metres wide and 1.4 metres high, and has a turning radius of 10.9 metres. The kerb weight is approximately 1,450 kg. It rides on 18-inch Night Flash Spoke dual-tone alloy wheels, made using recycled aluminum, which are shod with Hankook Ventus S1 EVO3 tires. Disc brakes come standard on all four wheels.
Color options available in India include Chili Red, Ocean Wave Green, British Racing Green, and Sunny Side Yellow. Shades like white, silver, gray, blue, and black are not offered for the convertible in India.
Convertible roof and boot space
The Cooper S Convertible gets a fully electric fabric roof and can be opened in 18 seconds and closed in 15 seconds, even when driving at 30 km/h. It also has a sunroof mode, which opens up to 40 cm for partial ventilation. When fully open, the boot space is 160 liters, expanding to 250 liters when the roof is closed. The tailgate can withstand a load of up to 80 kg, allowing you to sit on it comfortably.
A unique “Always Open Timer” tracks how long you have driven with the roof down, which gives a fun and exclusive MINI touch.
Interior, comfort and features
Inside, the cabin offers a premium and unique experience, in keeping with the character of MINI. You get black Veskin perforated leather seats (tapestry beige optional), ambient lighting in the cabin and electrically adjustable front sport seats with memory and massage functions for the driver. The upholstery materials are largely recycled, reinforcing MINI’s sustainability focus.
The rear seats are great for short journeys and get adjustable headrests, cup holders and side-mounted speakers. Storage space, wireless charging, multiple USB ports and cup holders are neatly integrated into the cabin.
