For 2024 MINI is introducing an entirely new product range that will include both electric and petrol powered models. Due to various global regulations, every market is handling this launch differently MINI USA included. To help with all this confusion we’ve worked with MINI USA to detail every single model, its start of production and when we’ll see them at dealers.
Starting the product onslaught will be the petrol powered U25 MINI Countryman S, Countryman JCW and the F66 MINI Cooper S. US Spec models will begin production in March of 2024 with a market launch of May. There likely will be exact on-sale date supplied by MINI USA in the first half of May.
Each dealer will receive several launch cars that will represent each model with the idea that they’ll be available for test drives and as a way to help potential buyers sort out models and options.
The 2nd wave of this changeover will include the first new electric product to hit US shores. The electric Countryman SE (which we recently reviewed) will begin production in July with an official market launch happening early September.
The F66 Cooper (with its uniquely US spec four cylinder engine) will finally begin production and make it to dealers in the same timeframe. Along side of it will be the introduction of another new model, the F65 Cooper S four door hatch.
The 3rd wave will round out the year with some of the most anticipated models. MINI will begin production of the Convertible in all models (the Cooper, Cooper S and JCW) in November with a market introduction in January of 2025. They will be joined by the Cooper four door and finally (the one we’ve been waiting for) the F66 Cooper JCW.
The biggest omission is the J01 MINI Cooper.......click HERE to read the entire article at MotoringFile.com.
