Compare the MINI Cooper Convertible vs MINI Cooper
AI generated from our expert reviews
Choosing between these two models comes down to open-air motoring versus practical space. Both share striking cabins trimmed in woven fabric rather than standard black plastics, centred around a circular touchscreen that looks great but features climate controls that can be fiddly on the move. Both also enclose Apple CarPlay and Android Auto in a square window in the middle of that circular display. Neither offers generous space in the back, where legroom behind a six-foot driver is severely restricted. Out on the road, both models have a firm suspension setup that lets you feel bumps and surface imperfections, paired with thick steering wheels that offer limited feedback. Where they differ most is utility: the MINI Cooper provides a larger boot than the MINI Cooper Convertible, as well as more space when the rear seats are folded down.
