best car 2013 Mini Cooper Coupe
The 2013 Mini Cooper Coupe ranks 9 out of 10 Affordable Sports Cars. This ranking is based on our analysis of 15 published reviews and test drives of the Mini Cooper Coupe, and our analysis of reliability and safety data.
The automotive press agrees that the 2013 Mini Cooper Coupe is a solid performer, but some reviewers say that its retro-styled interior could be more user-friendly.
The 2013 Mini Cooper Coupe is available in three powertrain configurations, and while reviewers say that the base Coupe has adequate power, most prefer S Coupe and John Cooper Works models for their spirited acceleration. A six-speed manual transmission is standard in all Mini Coupes, and test drivers say that it offers short, precise throws and a smooth clutch. The Mini Cooper Coupe gets up to 29/37 mpg city/highway, which is significantly better than most affordable sports cars. Auto writers agree that the 2013 Mini Coupe’s small size, athletic handling and quick, precise steering make it a joy to drive down a twisty road. However, the 2013 Mini Coupe also has one of the lowest reliability scores in the class.
While test drivers say that the Coupe’s cabin is eye-catching and uses attractive materials, most agree that some of the Coupe’s interior features aren’t as user-friendly as they’d like. They note that the Coupe’s small buttons and toggle switches can be confusing, and that the oversized, centrally-located speedometer is out of the driver’s direct line of site. Despite its small size, the Coupe’s two-seat cabin has room for a 6-foot-tall driver and passenger. Cargo space is also good, with more room than the Nissan 370Z and Subaru BRZ. The 2013 Mini Cooper Coupe comes standard with features that include a six-speaker stereo with Bluetooth and a USB port. Optional features include automatic climate control, rear parking sensors, satellite radio, a Harman Kardon stereo system, navigation and the Mini Connected infotainment system, which includes a 6.5-inch color display and smartphone integration.
