John Cooper Works is so formal – call it the JCW like everybody else. This is the top grade of the Hatch and Convertible ranges. Prices start at $49,900 for the JCW three-door hatch and step up to $57,900 for the JCW Convertible. You can’t get a five-door Hatch in JCW form.
The three-door Hatch and the Convertible in the JCW grade come standard with an 8.8-inch screen with harman/kardon 12-speaker stereo, head-up display, JCW interior trim, cloth and Dinamica upholstery (‘eco-suede’), stainless steel pedals, front parking sensors, dual-zone climate control, LED headlights and Union Jack pattern tail lights, and 18-inch alloys, updated media system with 4G connectivity, sat nav, reversing camera and rear parking sensors, wireless Apple CarPlay and digital radio.
The JCW is the hardcore one in the range and comes 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine making 170kW and 320Nm.
The JCW’s four-cylinder is the thirstiest in the range, with Mini claiming that in the three-door you’ll use 6.0L/100km while the Convertible will need 6.3L/100km.

Laura Berry
Senior Journalist
Laura Berry is a best-selling Australian author and journalist who has been reviewing cars for almost 20 years.
Much more of a Hot Wheels girl than a Matchbox one, she grew up in a family that would spend every Friday night sitting on a hill at the Speedway watching Sprintcars slide in the mud. The best part of this was being given money to buy stickers. She loved stickers… which then turned into a love of tattoos.
Out of boredom, she learnt to drive at 14 on her parents’ bush property in what can only be described as a heavily modified Toyota LandCruiser.
At the age of 17 she was told she couldn’t have a V8 Holden ute by her mother, which led to Laura and her father laying in the driveway for three months building a six-cylinder ute with more horsepower than a V8.
Since then she’s only ever owned V8s, with a Ford Falcon XW and a Holden Monaro CV8 part of her collection over the years.
Laura has authored two books and worked as a journalist writing about science, cars, music, TV, cars, art, food, cars, finance, architecture, theatre, cars, film and cars. But, mainly cars.
A wife and parent, her current daily driver is a chopped 1951 Ford Tudor with a V8.
