Striking Exterior Design and Color Options
The exterior styling of the new MINI Convertible JCW Pack remains true to its classic characteristics while integrating bold, sporty upgrades. The front fascia retains the iconic round headlights and features a newly designed front grille.
Customers can choose between two primary exterior color options:
- Legend Grey
- Midnight Black
For the Legend Grey exterior, the visual appeal is further enhanced with mirror caps and Sport Stripes finished in Black. The aggressive John Cooper Works trim is distinctively highlighted through unique design features on the grille, front and rear bumpers, side skirts, and door entry sills. Piano Black exterior trim and wheel arches contribute to the vehicle’s dynamic stance.
The car is equipped with standard LED headlights featuring three customizable light signatures. A specially orchestrated welcome and goodbye animation, which includes MINI logo projections, greets the driver. At the rear, the vehicle sports vertically aligned oval-shaped LED lights in a flush design, alongside a black handle strip with a striking model badge. Grounding the car are aerodynamically optimized 17-inch JCW Sprint Spoke Black alloy wheels.
The Convertible Experience
A core highlight is the high-quality black soft top, designed to protect occupants in all weather conditions.
- The electrically folding roof can be fully opened in just 18 seconds at speeds up to 30 km/h.
- Simultaneously, the side windows and window bars lower to provide a completely unobstructed view.

A new JCW Steering Wheel complete with paddle shifters reinforces the hallmark go-kart feeling.
