Transmission: Both the Roadster S and JCW come standard with a slick 6-speed manual transmission, providing a thrilling and engaging driving experience. Alternatively, a 6-speed automatic transmission is available as an option, offering convenience and smooth gear changes. Performance: The Mini Cooper Roadster S delivers an exhilarating ride, accelerating from 0-60 mph in a sprightly 6.7 seconds (manual) or 6.5 seconds (automatic). The JCW variant takes it up a notch, reaching 0-60 mph in a blistering 6.1 seconds (manual) or 5.9 seconds (automatic). The Roadster S and JCW boast impressive handling characteristics, providing sharp steering and nimble cornering capabilities, making them a joy to drive on winding roads.

Interior Comfort and Cargo

The 2013 Mini Cooper Roadster S and JCW exude a sporty ambiance with a snug cabin. Despite its compact size, the front seats provide ample space and support with comfortable padding and side bolsters for enhanced stability. The sport buckets in the JCW model further bolster support for spirited driving. The rear seats are mostly suitable for occasional use or storage, but the ample headroom compensates for the tight legroom. The interior boasts premium materials, including leather upholstery, brushed aluminum accents, and a user-friendly infotainment system featuring a central display and an intuitive interface. The JCW variant adds exclusive touches such as red accents, contrast stitching, and a JCW-specific steering wheel. In terms of cargo space, the Roadster S and JCW offer a surprisingly spacious 8.5 cubic feet of trunk space when the soft top is up. With the top lowered, the space shrinks to a still decent 5.7 cubic feet. The split-folding rear seats in the JCW model allow for further expansion of cargo capacity.
