Luup alternative with this car
The 2012 MINI Cooper for a rental car: the facts first, then the booking. You choose the car; a person confirms it and sends the price. Every car has its own page with its rates and calendar.
What the specs mean
It is powered by the 1.6L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.
Fuel use is rated 7.6 L/100 km combined, so 300 km needs about 23 litres. Expect about $13.30 per 100 km at our price setting.
Space, size and seats
Low and compact, it is a car for the drive more than the cargo. With 170 litres of luggage space by the EPA's measure, it takes about a large suitcase and a couple of soft bags.
Who the Cooper suits
It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.
