Mini Cooper Generations
Mini Cooper 2 Generation (2007, 2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012)
A subtle redesign of the Mini Cooper slightly increased the power output to 118 horsepower. The Cooper S got a 1.6-liter turbocharged engine with 172 hp. Both models now offered a six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission. Convertibles weren’t built on the updated platform until 2009 when a new John Cooper Works version was added. The 2011 update brought new bumpers, taillights, placement of fog lights, and a slight increase in horsepower. The coupe was released in 2012.
Mini Cooper 1 Generation (2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006)
The base Mini Cooper launched with a 115-hp, 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine available with a five-speed manual or continuously variable automatic transmission. The Cooper S had a supercharged 1.6-liter with 163 hp and a six-speed manual transmission only. A convertible debuted in 2005.
