The 2012 MINI Cooper is powered by a 1.6 liter engine that carries 121 horsepower. MINI engineers have improved the alloy engine to increase fuel economy, enhance the response of the engine as well as increase performance and delivery. The specific design of the engine allows for maximum cabin space, weight balance of the vehicle as well as the supreme handling.

With 37 mpg on the highway and 29 mpg in the city, drivers will love zooming by the gas stations, enjoying their drive rather than stopping to fill up.

Owners of the MINI Cooper will feel comfortable driving because safety is a major feature of the vehicle. If a collision occurs, the 2012 MINI Cooper is protected with a six airbag safety system. There are two front and two side impact airbags for front passengers as well as two ceiling mounted roof curtains.

The crash sensor system that comes with the Cooper also will help protect passengers in a collision. If a crash occurs, the crash sensor system will automatically unlock the doors, turn on interior lighting and cut off the fuel pump if airbags are deployed to minimize the risk of a fire.

The 2012 MINI Cooper comes with plenty of fun, great fuel efficiency, and protection for its passengers.
