The Mini Cooper S is a sportier version of the Mini Cooper, equipped with a more powerful 2.0-liter, 4-cylinder turbocharged engine that delivers increased horsepower and torque compared to the standard Cooper. This enhancement allows for quicker acceleration and a more dynamic driving experience. The Mini Cooper S is distinguished by its "S" badge and typically features sporty design elements such as twin exhaust pipes and an air scoop on the bonnet.
In 1963, Mini recognised the success of the 997 Mini Cooper on the racetrack and aimed to elevate its performance further, leading to the creation of the 1071 cc Cooper S. Originally, this engine was intended solely for racing purposes. However, regular road drivers found the engine's power irresistible.
Inspired by the powerful engine of the first Mini Cooper, Mini established two performance levels for their engines: Cooper and Cooper S.
