BMW Brings New Generation MINI To India; Price Starting From 31.85 Lakhs

Luxury auto maker BMW has launched its latest offing MINI 3-door and the new MINI 5-door in its MINI -series. The auto giant has priced both Mini 3-door and MINI 5-door at ex-showroom prices of Rs 31.85 lakh and Rs 35.20 lakh respectively.

“Reinventing an icon like the MINI was an exciting task. On one hand, we had to create a vehicle that exceeds the demands of modern, twenty-first century motoring. On the other, we had to stay true to the original MINI and a design philosophy that has laid the foundations for over 50 years of success. Injecting everyday versatility with indisputable MINI attitude, the new MINI 5-door proves hands down that five doors can be just as much fun as three. Mixing trademark MINI looks and handling with easy access and extra legroom, the MINI 5-door gives you the comfort of a saloon car without giving up any of the classic MINI excitement,” said Philip Von Sahr, President of BMW India at the launch.

He further added, “To ensure the new generation of MINI is as successful as its predecessors, we have made just subtle modifications to its design. But beneath the outer skin is a brand-new car with an absolutely revamped interior stacked with state-of-the-art technologies seen for the first time in a small car.”

The new models will be available at MINI dealerships across the country while MINI S 3 door cars will be available in the first quarter of 2015.

The company had introduced its MINI Cooper Series in India in 2012. The MINI stable now includes the 3-door, 5-door models as well as a convertible and Countryman.
