About the Convertible Cooper 1.6 120

The 2009 MINI Convertible Cooper 1.6 120 is a front-drive naturally aspirated roadster of 1,180 kg with 118 bhp, which works out at 100 bhp per tonne. Front drive caps what it can put down off the line — 60 ft takes 2.62 s — so most of what it has to give arrives once it is already moving. Against the 14,946 cars in the set it is the 7,278th quickest to 60 mph, and the 69th quickest of the 122 MINIs here. Its 84.1 mph trap speed sits about where its 0-60 puts it, so it launches and pulls in roughly equal measure. The simulation is trimmed to 2 of 2 published acceleration figures for this car.

Picked for a fair race, not just a matching 0-60: pace, power-to-weight and body shape all count, and at most one is from the same maker.

Questions

What is the MINI Convertible Cooper 1.6 120 0-60 time?

The MINI Convertible Cooper 1.6 120 reaches 60 mph in 8.39 s, simulated on dry asphalt at 20 °C with a 1 ft rollout. That makes it the 7,278th quickest of the 14,946 cars in the set.

What is the MINI Convertible Cooper 1.6 120 quarter mile time?

16.47 s at 84.1 mph. It reaches the eighth mile in 10.62 s and clears the first 60 ft in 2.62 s. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

How much power does the MINI Convertible Cooper 1.6 120 have?

118 bhp and 1,180 kg, which is 100 bhp per tonne. It is front-drive, naturally aspirated, with 6 gears and a quoted top speed of 192 km/h. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

What cars are comparable to the MINI Convertible Cooper 1.6 120?

Closest here on pace: Alfa Romeo Spider Series II 1.6 109 (8.47 s), Alfa Romeo Spider 1.8 TS 144 (8.47 s), DS Automobiles DS 3 Cabrio 1.6 BlueHDi Start and Stop 120 (8.57 s). Each one can be raced against the MINI Convertible Cooper 1.6 120 in the panel at the top of this page. These are theoretical times from a physics simulation, not measured runs.

Are these real measured times?

No. Every figure on this page is produced by a physics simulation, not by a stopwatch at a drag strip. The MINI Convertible Cooper 1.6 120 is modelled from its published kerb mass, rated power, drivetrain and gearing, then trimmed until it reproduces 2 of its 2 published acceleration figures. Conditions are the same for every car in the set: dry asphalt, 20 °C, sea level, 1 ft rollout.

Figures regenerated 2026-10-12. Every number on this page is computed by the simulator at build time, so the page and the app can never disagree.
