A limited edition MINI featuring ice blue, a color that was highly popular in 1960s fashion, has arrived. By combining ice blue, which can easily evoke a nostalgic image, with the MINI, it has been presented as a retro-modern design.
The "Ice Blue Black Edition," based on the "MINI Cooper S 5 Door" equipped with a 2.0-liter 4-cylinder gasoline engine, features a sporty black roof, mirror caps, and bonnet stripes. Furthermore, it adopts a 6-speed manual transmission, a first for the "MINI Cooper S 5 Door" in Japan.
Meanwhile, the "Ice Blue Edition," based on the "MINI Cooper 3 Door" with a 1.5-liter 3-cylinder gasoline engine, is a model that emphasizes its retro feel by incorporating a calm white roof and mirror caps. It is paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission.
Additionally, both models feature exclusive side scuttles and interior surfaces with original designs utilizing 3D printing technology, asserting their individuality as limited editions.
