New MINI Cooper S Victory Edition Debuts in India

Gurugram - MINI India (a division of BMW Group India), a premium small car brand, has launched the new Cooper S Victory Edition in India at its newly inaugurated Sanghi Classic dealership in Jaipur.

The special edition model will be offered in the country as a completely built-up unit (CBU) and can be booked through all authorized MINI India dealerships. Deliveries will begin immediately.

No city is more closely linked to motorsport heritage than Monte Carlo. MINI’s legacy in the principality is especially significant, highlighted by its iconic 1965 Monte Carlo Rally victory, when Timo Mäkinen and co-driver Paul Easter drove the legendary Mini Cooper S to triumph.

Celebrated for its advanced technology, refined performance and remarkable agility in extreme weather, that rally-winning spirit lives on in the new MINI Cooper S Victory Edition. The latest edition blends modern style with signature MINI craftsmanship, carrying forward the brand’s distinguished motorsport legacy.

Mr. Hardeep Singh Brar, President and CEO, BMW Group India said, “The new MINI Cooper S Victory Edition is a bold tribute to the legendary 1965 Monte Carlo Rally win, bringing a historic racing soul to modern Indian roads. This limited-run masterpiece captures the aesthetic essence of MINI's competitive DNA, meticulously crafted for those who demand a drive that looks as iconic as it feels. We are thrilled to offer Indian enthusiasts a unique opportunity to own a piece of motorsport history, reimagined with bespoke styling that honors our championship heritage. This special edition is a visual celebration of our past and a testament to the timeless spirit of performance that defines the MINI brand today.”

The new MINI Cooper S Victory Edition is offered in exclusive Chilli Red with standard JCW 18-inch Lap Spoke two-tone alloy wheels and Sports Seats finished in Vescin Black. Inspired by MINI’s 1965 Monte Carlo Rally triumph, the special edition features signature details such as white bonnet-to-roof striping, exclusive “52” side graphics, subtle “1965” badging and a panoramic black roof.

Inside, the cabin combines sporty design with modern digital features, including JCW Sports Seats, a JCW steering wheel, a 240 mm circular OLED touchscreen, MINI Operating System 9, voice control, Head-Up Display, Harman Kardon sound system, wireless smartphone charging, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Multiple MINI Experience Modes further enhance the in-car experience.

Power comes from a 2.0-litre MINI TwinPower Turbo petrol engine producing 150 kW/204 hp and 300 Nm of torque, paired with a 7-speed double-clutch Steptronic Sport transmission. The car accelerates from 0–100 km/h in 6.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 242 km/h.
