Mini Cooper S Victory Edition: Bookings Open in India
Mini India has officially opened bookings for the limited-run Mini Cooper S Victory Edition. This special model is a tribute to the legendary 1965 Monte Carlo Rally win and is based on the performance-heavy John Cooper Works (JCW) pack. Available exclusively in Chilli Red with a contrasting white roof, the car features the iconic “52” race number on the doors. Under the hood, it retains the 2.0-liter turbo-petrol engine, producing 204 bhp and a 0–100 kmph time of just 6.6 seconds.
- Racing Heritage: The “Victory Edition” features “1965” branding on the steering wheel and center console to celebrate the brand’s historic rally win.
- Exclusive Design: The car gets a unique offset white racing stripe, a split roof spoiler, and a central exhaust system.
- Limited Units: Only a few units are allocated for the Indian market, and deliveries are expected to begin by March 2026.
- Performance Specs: It comes paired with a 7-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox and hits a top speed of 240 kmph.
👉 Why it matters: For Indian car enthusiasts, this is a rare chance to own a piece of Mini’s racing history. It shows that even as the market shifts to EVs, there is still high demand for “old-school” petrol performance in a premium package.
