Mini Roadster specifications

Mini has confirmed pricing and specifications for its new Roadster, which is due in UK dealer showrooms next spring.

Unlike the existing Mini Convertible, the Roadster is strictly a two-seater, although it does boast a reasonable 240 litre luggage capacity.

All versions are to carry the Cooper nameplate and, for the UK at least, operation of the fabric roof will be semi-automatic.

Standard equipment includes a rear spoiler that automatically rises at 50 mph (80 km/h) and retracts at 37 mph (60 km/h), stainless steel rollover bars, rear park distance control and a Sport button on the dashboard that sharpens both the steering and throttle responses.

Among the various fuel saving features are an automatic start-stop system, brake energy regeneration and electric power-assisted steering.
