Relative to other subcompacts, the Mini doesn't rank highly when it comes to utility. The JCW's cabin boasts high-quality materials plus whimsical design elements like the circular framing that houses the infotainment system's touchscreen.

MINI CAR CALENDAR 2022 MANUAL
The EPA gave the JCW with the six-speed manual transmission 22 mpg city and 31 mpg for highway travel. The JCW convertible we tested on our 75-mph highway fuel-economy beat that estimate by 2 mpg. The most fuel-efficient combo is the Hardtop with the eight-speed automatic, which is rated for 25 mpg city and 34 mpg highway. The JCW's fuel-economy estimates vary based on body style and transmission. Tested: Mini Cooper JCW Convertible Seems Sensible.However, this Mini's firm suspension can make the ride unpleasantly choppy on rough roads. All this combines to help it deliver precise handling that's a treat for enthusiasts.
Relative to the standard Mini Cooper, the JCW brings features such as Brembo brakes, a more aggressive suspension, and an electronically locking front differential. An automatic-equipped Volkswagen GTI, a natural competitor to the JCW, managed it in 5.1 seconds. In our track testing, a JCW convertible with the slushbox made the dash to 60 mph in 5.7 seconds. The sole transmission for the convertible is an eight-speed automatic, whereas Hardtop buyers get a choice between that and a six-speed manual. The Mini Cooper JCW wields a turbocharged 2.0-liter inline-four that makes 228 horsepower. We'd stick with the six-speed manual transmission but upgrade to the Signature Trim, which adds a panoramic sunroof, heated front seats, and dual-zone automatic climate control. The JCW Hardtop comes with LED headlights, front fog lights, rain-sensing wipers, heated and power-adjustable side mirrors, and a rear spoiler.
