To make this car stand out, it gets a new exclusive exterior paint of Zesty Yellow.
Its soft roof is fully electrically driven, and thus particularly quiet textile soft top can be opened and closed within 18 seconds at a time.
The soft top can also be activated while driving at speeds of up to 30kph.
For a precisely dosed supply of fresh air and sunlight, the front section of the soft top can be continuously retracted by up to 40cm.
This sunroof function is available at any speed.
As an alternative to the black version, a MINI Yours soft top is also available, which refers to the British homeland of the MINI brand with a woven-in Union Jack pattern in titanium grey.
The dynamic arrow graphic on the soft top of the MINI Convertible in the Sidewalk Edition is just as striking.
In addition, the hexagonal radiator grille has gained in size and presence, while black inner housings now make the round LED headlights look even more expressive.
The bumper strip at the front of the vehicle, which serves as the number plate holder, is now no longer painted in black but always in the same colour as the car.
For the latest generation of the MINI Convertible, there is a choice of three engine variants with a power range between 102hp and 178hp.
The petrol engines with three or four cylinders feature modern MINI TwinPower Turbo technology and comply with the Euro 6d emissions standard.
The model range also includes the extremely sporty MINI John Cooper Works Convertible with a 231hp four-cylinder turbo engine that enables acceleration from zero to 100kph in 6.6 seconds.
In combination with the optional eight-speed Steptronic transmission, the sprint to 100kph is completed in 6.5 seconds.
By far the most important sales market for the MINI Convertible is Germany, followed by the US and Great Britain, and far ahead of France, Spain and Portugal, which are known for their reliably warm summers and many hours of sunshine.
Last year, German MINI fans opted for a MINI Convertible in almost every fifth purchase.
