Edmunds Inside Line - Full Test: 2007 Mini Cooper S - 05-08-2007, 12:46 AM

The Payoff

A week of thrashing this Mini is over and we've racked up a good thousand miles, most of them hard miles. There's no doubt this Mini is a better driver than before, but it's time to find out if it's really a green machine, too. According to the EPA, the Mini Cooper S should make 29 mpg city/36 mpg highway. We tallied our own fuel-economy records and got a combined 32.7 mpg for the week.

With a sticker price of $23,650, our Mini Cooper S is priced right there with its traditional sporting competition, not to mention the Toyota Prius hybrid. But when it comes to delivering performance and a little environmental street cred, the Mini Cooper S is streets ahead, the future of driving fast.
