The Mini 3-door hatchback is 98mm longer, 44mm wider and 7mm taller than its predecessor and wheelbase has gone up by 28mm, which in turn means more interior space on the insides. The 5-Door Mini is 4,005mm long, 1,727mm wide, 1,425mm in height and rides on a 2,567mm wheelbase. It is 162mm longer and 11mm taller than the regular three-door Mini Cooper hatch, and adds 72mm between the wheels for a larger cabin.

Boot space is up to a respectable 278 litres and a foldable rear seat open up its capacity to 941 litres. On the whole, we think the new Mini 5-door will be extremely popular in India, especially with the new diesel engine option.
