Your MINI Connected Guide: Stay Connected on the Road

With MINI Connected, you have a rich collection of handy digital services that boost your driving experience and lifestyle. The suite of features is controlled through MINI’s advanced Operating System 9 and infotainment system.

3D Maneuvering Visualizations

With the newest OS upgrade, MINI Connected now includes 3D renderings of your car’s surroundings for complicated turning or parking situations. This is all displayed clearly on your sizable touchscreen to keep your MINI much safer from the risk of dings and scrapes. 

On-the-Go Traffic Updates

Your MINI stays linked to the internet and gathers real-time traffic updates, which integrate with the navigation system to ensure the quickest route to any destination. These traffic updates include jams or bottlenecks created by accidents, construction, and other disruptions. 

You can plan your journeys on your phone at home, taking all this traffic data into account, and then send the destination remotely to your MINI. This means you can climb into your car with the navigation all set up and start driving without delay. 

Remote Door Unlock 

You can unlock and lock your car remotely using your phone’s MINI app. This is useful if you lock your keys inside or if you need to grant a friend or family member quick access to the cabin.

Remote Car Finder 

Have you ever forgotten where you parked your car in a busy lot or street? That’s no longer a problem with the remote car finder on your phone, which would also be useful if your car was ever stolen. 

MINI Assist eCall

In the event of an emergency, you can use the MINI Assist eCall feature to immediately send your location and pertinent vehicle data to MINI’s emergency response center. Your MINI may also call the response center automatically, which allows us to talk and fully understand our situation before arranging for assistance. 

MINI Connected Upgrades 

There are several excellent upgrades available with MINI Connected. Remote engine start is one. This popular feature lets you remotely start the engine and pre-condition your MINI and its cabin before you get in. Park Assist Professional grants more detailed visual assistance when maneuvering into or out of tight parking spots. 

The MINI Connected Plus suite upgrade further enhances your car’s entertainment and navigation services. You’ll also have a more sophisticated, intelligent personal assistant in your car. 

Remote Software Upgrades

MINI is continually improving its connectivity services and will let you know whenever an upgrade is available with a notification. Downloading and updating the program on your phone and central control system is straightforward and only takes 20 minutes.
