Green Car Reports Quick Drive Of An Automatic 2014 MINI
Green Car Reports takes a quick drive around Bear Mountain, New York, as has this, in part, to say about the 2014 MINI Cooper Automatic:
On the road, the new-generation MINI Cooper retains the instantaneous response and "roller-skate handling" of its predecessors. Thankfully, that's been engineered into a considerably more civilized car, with modern amenities and a much quieter interior.
The Sport mode was by far the most rewarding (and least fuel-efficient) way to drive the MINI Cooper, with the little three-cylinder engine eager to rev and the paddle shifters letting us at least simulate a manual gearbox.
Did we mention we really want to test the manual MINI next?
