Size doesn’t always matter on the road. Some of the smallest vehicles can pack the biggest punch. Find out why this philosophy applies to the 2022 Mini Hardtop 4 Door.Rear left angle view of blue hardtop MINI Cooper

The Basics About the 2022 Mini Hardtop 4-Door

The new hardtop is part of the MINI subcompact hatchback line from BMW. These unique cars possess a proud legacy dating back to the race car-building days of the namesake Cooper Car Company in England. The 2022 model comes in 2-door and 4-door options.

Each hardtop has a 1.5L Turbo I-3 engine with about 135 horsepower. The vehicles possess a standard 6-speed manual transmission, although you may opt for a 6-speed automatic. Starting at just 23,900 dollars, you can buy this beauty and enjoy the superior handling for which Minis are renowned.

New and Unique Features

Family-Friendly Roominess

The longer wheelbase of the new 4-door model gives you ample legroom that’ll increase your comfort level. And with those two extra sets of doors, entry and exit from the vehicle have never been easier.

Enhanced Exterior Aesthetics

The 2022 hardtop benefits from a trendy and sleek makeover that makes it even more eye-catching on the highway. The front grille trim is now available with a dazzling piano black finish. This glossy feature is extended to the car’s door handles, badges, and tailpipes as well. That front grille also is attached to a beautiful body-colored panel that provides a refreshing mark-up from the previous black-only panel.

The hardtop’s backside gets some love as well with a brand-new redesigned bumper. Fun Union Jack-style headlights pay proper homage to the company’s British roots. If you desire even more distinction, you can now choose a blue, yellow, or gray roof. Better yet, get the blue-to-black gradient top. Any of these options go great with the pepper white, agate black, or lap-is-luxury blue body color offerings.

Interior Upgrades

If you’re looking for a few cosmetic enhancements on the inside as well, you won’t be disappointed. For one, that digital instrument panel that proved so handy in the two-door electric Minis is now standard in the 2022 Hardtop line. A respectable, nearly nine-inch central display should ease your operations, while satellite radio will help keep you entertained while you drive.

The elegant black leatherette upholstery maintains the upscale and quality design for which this car line is known.

Options Galore

For just a bit more money, you can also add a comfy heated steering wheel, climate control, and adjustable ambient lighting to set the mood. If you like your smart integration, Apple CarPlay’s an available option too. And for an added degree of safety, you may include a lane departure warning system, parking assistance, a backup camera, and active cruise control.

The Signature and Iconic trims of the 2022 hardtop afford the most extras to customize your vehicle to your liking.
