Whether you want to call it a deep facelift or a new generation, the new petrol-powered 2024 MINI Cooper begins production at MINI Plant Oxford. The first unit was driven off the production line by Charlie Cooper, the grandson of John Cooper, the father of the Mini Cooper. While the all-new fully electric MINI Cooper E is built in China as part of a joint collaboration with GWM, the internal combustion MINI is manufactured in the UK.

Rolls-Royce Ghost 6.6L – RM 18,330 4. Lamborghini Aventador/Ferrari 812 6.5L – RM 17,880 5. Bentley Continental GT 6.0L – RM 15,630 The figures above are not exact as engine capacities are almost never rounded to say, 6,000 cc for example, so there may be slight discrepancies.

Yes, you read that correctly. The next generation C63 will reportedly drop the traditional AMG V8 for an in-line 4. And that’s not all, it will also be all-wheel drive. Before you get your pitchforks out to storm Affalterbach, this is reported by Autocar so it isn’t official yet.
