Mini reveals petrol versions of its Cooper and Convertible JCW models

Mini has completed its John Cooper Works line-up with petrol-powered versions of the Cooper and Convertible.

Both cars will come fitted with a 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbocharged engine though vehicle performance figures will differ slightly between the two. The hatch produces a total of 231bhp and 380Nm of torque. It can do 0-60mph in 5.9 seconds and will go on to a top speed of 155mph. The drop-top version comes with 228bhp but has the same torque levels and its top speed is 152mph. Its 0-60mph time of 6.2 seconds is also slightly less. All cars come fitted with a dual-clutch automatic gearbox as standard.

The exterior of both cars features a centrally mounted exhaust as well as a sculpted black rear diffuser and red brake callipers. Plus, the hatchback version comes with a distinctive rear roof spoiler. All cars come as standard with 17-inch alloy wheels, but 18-inch wheels are an option, too.

The interior features sports seats and steering wheel. (Mini)

Prices start at £31,200. (Mini)
