Remember that electric Mini that stole everyone's heart last year? Well, it's got a gas-guzzling cousin now, and this time, it's brought along some extra doors for your squad. Buckle up, because the wait for the 5-Door Mini Cooper is officially over!

Here's the tea:

5-Door Mini Cooper

  • More Power (But Not Quite Enough to Outrun Your Mailman): This Mini Cooper comes in two flavours: the Cooper C and the Cooper S. The C packs a 1.5-liter turbocharged punch, which is basically Mini saying "enough power to get groceries without breaking a sweat." The S steps it up with a 2.0-liter turbo, giving you a little more oomph for those spontaneous weekend getaways. Don't expect to win any drag races (those extra doors add a little weight!), but you'll definitely be the coolest car at the farmers market.

  • More Room for Weekend Adventures (and All Your Stuff): The big news is the extra space! Mini basically took a regular Mini and stretched it like a piece of taffy (don't worry, it's still cute). This means more legroom for your besties to join your next adventure, and a whopping 32.6 cubic feet of cargo space with the seats folded – that's enough for all your camping gear or that giant stuffed bear you just had to have.

  • Same Mini Charm, New Tech Toys: This Mini keeps the sleek design we saw on the smaller Cooper, with smooth lines and fancy LED lights that basically turn night drives into disco parties. Inside, you get the same cool touchscreen and a bunch of fun "Mini Experience Modes" that let you change the whole vibe of the car. Feeling sporty? Boom, red lights and race car sounds. Feeling fancy? Pink lights and calming nature sounds – it's all up to you! Plus, parking gets easier with a fancy system that uses cameras and sensors to basically become your own personal parking assistant (because parallel parking is a nightmare, no judgment).

While these details are for the European version, the US Mini shouldn't be too different. We'll just have to wait a bit longer for the official pricing. In the meantime, get ready to see this adorable (and slightly bigger) Mini Cooper scooting around town, reminding everyone that even grown-ups can have a little fun!
