Overall Rating

The 2021 Mini Cooper Hardtop 4-Door Cooper will swoop into the next decade with charming and attractive body styling, premium interior offerings, advance driving dynamics that will be retained from the recently refreshed reveal.

Mini Cooper is synonymous with nimble and spry, yet the go-kart-like handling subcompact vehicle tops in luxurious interiors and sporty styling. The 2021 Mini Cooper Hardtop 4-Door Cooper will swoop into the next decade with charming and attractive body styling, premium interior offerings, advance driving dynamics that will be retained from the recently refreshed reveal.

The Mini Cooper Hardtop 4-door comes with an exceptionally short wheelbase, and will continue to be available in three trims; Classic, Signature, and Iconic. These trims add high-quality material choices and cosmetic upgrades, that add up to the aesthetic appeal of the Cooper hatchback. The 1.5L Twin Turbo Inline-3 peppy engine choice is set to be retained for the next decade with a 6-speed manual and 7-speed dual-clutch transmission choices. The engine pushes out a good 134-hp and 162 lb-ft torque that rushes to the front wheels. The iconic exterior appeal remains the same, while different trims add comforting and eye-sparkling features inside the cabin. 

The 2021 Mini Cooper is a sporty hatchback with enhanced agility and driving capabilities. The luxe fittings in the cabin are very less found at such price tag in the compact vehicle segment. The Cooper hatchback stands out with premium offerings both inside and out. The small body Cooper doesn't compromise in the interior, otherwise for tall passengers. The Cooper hatchback is a stylish, fun-driving, and featureful vehicle that leads in the segments with its outstanding performance.

5yr table 

The Mini Hardtop 4 door Cooper is quite a reliable and dependable product, thanks to the BMW backing that the car enjoys. Currently, the car has no safety recall or customer complaints reported by the NHTSA website which helps instill a lot of confidence into its buyers. However, Mini is no cheap car to maintain as it might be a small car, but it is quite a sophisticated machine as well. The repairs and breakdowns are extremely rare especially while the car is under 5 years old. You also get an option of extended warranty at an additional cost which we highly recommend that you opt for.

In terms of the ownership costs, on an average, you will have to shell out nearly $42,050 in 5 years when you buy a brand new Mini Hardtop 4-Door Cooper. This might sound quite high for a hatchback but the Mini Hardtop Cooper offers advanced tech as well as a luxury experience that cannot be equated to a regular hatchback. 

Warranty

The 2021 Mini Hardtop 4-Door Cooper will come along a 4-year/50,000 miles limited and powertrain warranty and a 3-year/36,000 miles complimentary warranty covered. It is joined by a 12-year/unlimited miles corrosion cover and a 4-year/unlimited miles roadside assistance. This is quite a lucrative warranty period and package when you compare it to its rivals. However, it is nothing special or worth talking home about. We strongly recommend to opt for Mini’s extended warranty at an additional cost to cover another year for manufacturing defects.

Criteria

Period

Limited Warranty

Four Year or 50,000 miles

Powertrain Warranty

Four Year or 50,000 miles

Complimentary Warranty

Three Year or 36,000 miles

The Mini brand appears to be the most generous against the rivals, where Subaru restricts any complimentary warranty while others are equally courteous with their product warranties. Most rivals also offer some sort of maintenance packages as well as extended warranties.

Miles Per Dollar

The 2021 Mini Hardtop 4-Door Cooper retains the peppy 1.5L engine that delivers an impressive 31 combined mpg figure. The Cooper hatchback fits in an 11.6-gallon fuel tank that is good for a maximum of 418 miles. The above figures sum up to 0.93 miles per dollar for the luxury subcompact.

Buying Advice


The 2021 Mini Cooper is a sporty hatchback with enhanced agility and driving capabilities. The luxe fittings in the cabin are very less found at such price tag in the compact vehicle segment. The Cooper hatchback stands out with premium offerings both inside and out. The small body Cooper doesn't compromise in the interior, otherwise for tall passengers. The Cooper hatchback is a stylish, fun-driving, and featureful vehicle that leads in the segments with its outstanding performance.

Is buying a used 2021 Mini Hardtop 4-Door Cooper a good idea?

The 2021 Mini Cooper hardtop 4-door is still missing an official announcement date and hence removes the presence of used model questions. However, if you want to buy any model of the Mini Hardtop 4-Door Cooper then we would recommend you to go for any 2018 model as that would provide you the best value for money proposition.

Engine and Performance
6.5/10


The 2021 Mini Cooper Hardtop 4-Door will retain the peppy 1.5L Twin-Turbo Inline-3 engine. As mini as Cooper yet the engine gushes out an incredible 134 hp and 162 lb-ft output. The small engine block has been provided by the parent company, BMW and the German engine delivers ample power and torque figures for the subcompact to be a fun ride. This engine is mated with a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission for smooth shifting and a new option gets a 6-speed manual for extra amusing driving capabilities.

The best thing about the BMW engine, as shared in Cooper hatch, is 162 lb-ft of peak torque kicks in early at 1,250 RPMs for best acceleration dynamics. Thus, driving the car around in the city is a breeze and the engine remains spinning at a low rpm. Over on the highways, you can extract the best out of this engine but it does not portray the best driving dynamics. The throttle response is quite quick and you can have a lot of fun behind the wheel.

Competition

2021 Mini Hardtop 4-Door Cooper vs. 2020 Volkswagen Golf

The 2020 Volkswagen Golf hatchback is one of the top pick in the compact vehicle segments owing to a powerful engine, agile driving dynamics, subtle exterior appeal, and long term reliability and easy maintenance. The Golf is a functional go-to the hatchback, while the 2021 Mini Cooper Hardtop 4-Door is an exceptional luxury hatch with brilliant agile driving, which packs a luxe wrapping, yet it lacks on the utility front. At the same time, the Golf is an economical choice with subtle design packaging inside and out, limiting to just essentials. The Cooper competes with equal competitive power and economy figures to match the rivals on the practicality fronts, yet a short height and a small boot pull it back.

2021 Mini Hardtop 4-Door Cooper vs. 2020 Toyota Corolla Hatchback

The 2020 Toyota Corolla hatchback is a hot choice in the compact vehicle segment. The Toyota hatchback has sporty and aggressive styling that makes the traditional Mini Cooper look dull. The most powerful option in the table comes with ample features inside the cabin. Surprisingly it offers less rear-seat space to the Cooper hatchback even after being 14 inches longer than the Cooper, while it fills in better at the rear with a 17.8 cu-ft boot. The Toyota hatchback is a perfect choice for daily use, while the Cooper is more sporty and agile than the former.

2021 Mini Hardtop 4-Door Cooper vs. 2020 Subaru Impreza Hatchback

The Subaru Impreza hatchback is he only all-wheel-drive hatchback choice in the table, which promisingly delivers smooth driving and enhanced handling capabilities. The Subaru fits in essentials and the interiors aren't as plush as offered by the Cooper hatchback. The powerful 2.0L block under the Subaru hood is less responsive and slow for the class, whereas the Cooper is fast and agile and maintains the fun in driving.

 

Final Verdict


The 2021 Mini Hardtop 4-Door Cooper is more than just a hatchback, its a symphony for buyers who want more than utility and practicality. Thus the subcompact vehicle brilliantly disparts mind-boggling steering responses, agile driving capabilities, and sportiness in a compact size. And when the energy cools down, the premium interior wrappings rest assured of the intimate relation of the buyer with its car and advanced gadgets help Mini Cooper match the competition.
