Mini is a small car brand that was produced by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and is currently owned by BMW. In the 1960s, Mini became an icon of the UK.
The Mini was launched in August 1959 under the names Austin Seven and Morris Mini-Minor. It was later renamed Austin Mini and became an independent brand in 1969. Throughout the years, it went through various name changes, such as Austin Mini in 1980 and Rover Mini in 1988.
Under BMW ownership, the Mini has undergone technical changes but has retained its classic 4-cylinder engine and front-wheel drive. In October 2013, Mini officially entered the Vietnamese market through BMW Euro Auto as the distributor. Four Mini models were initially introduced, including Cooper, Cooper S, Countryman, and Countryman S.
On January 6, 2022, THACO officially launched five new Mini models: Mini Cooper 3-Door, Mini One 5-Door, Mini Cooper Convertible, Mini John Cooper Works 3-Door, and Mini John Cooper Works Convertible.

Comparison of Mini Car Prices for Each Segment
Based on the latest car price list, Mini cars belong to a distinct, niche segment in the Vietnamese market. They offer unique designs and price ranges from 1.5 to 2.73 billion VND, depending on the variant. People who choose Mini cars are usually looking for a compact, stylish, and unique vehicle that stands out from the rest.
Conclusion
Mini is a renowned car brand with a rich history, but it may not be widely popular in Vietnam due to its high price range and distinctive style that may not appeal to everyone. The Mini car price list shows that it falls within the luxury car price range, similar to some Mercedes-Benz or Audi models. This is a factor that may influence Vietnamese consumers’ decision to choose Mini cars.
Note: Mini 2023 refers to Mini cars produced in 2023, not the model year of the product.
