Overview
A handful of new hardtop color choices and the addition of standard Apple CarPlay give the 2023 Mini Hardtop 4 Door some renewed vigor among a group of freshened hatchback rivals. A new yellow hardtop option, plus new white and red Multitone roof colors that feature a color-blending gradient, joins the blue/black Multitone roof introduced last year. The Mini's changes are largely cosmetic, however. There are no additional power or performance upgrades, and Android Auto smartphone integration for the center display, which would be nice to have, is still MIA.

Mini missed a chance here to pull away from four-door hatchback rivals such as the Volkswagen Golf GTI and Honda Civic, cars that blend sporty with practical and include now-common tech as standard features. Compounding matters are supply chain shortages that have forced Mini to halt production of standard manual transmissions. For now, the Hardtop 4 Door will only offer a seven-speed automatic. The base trim level, Classic, is also being suspended, making the Signature trim the new base level. Mini says these changes are temporary but offers no timeline for their return.
The Mini's ace card, though, has always been its swagger, thanks to the myriad ways it can be personalized. From the color of the roof and side mirrors to dozens of stripe, wheel and color combinations, it's easy to build a Mini that stands out in a sea of silver, white and black cars.
2023 MINI Hardtop 4 Door trim level differences
The 2023 Mini Convertible is available in two trim levels: Cooper and Cooper S. They're differentiated by the engine under the hood. There are also two subtrims — Signature and Iconic — that denote the number of features on each vehicle. Compare the 2023 MINI Hardtop 4 Door trim levels in-depth.
Which Hardtop 4 Door trim does Edmunds recommend?
Spring for the Cooper S if you can stretch it. The larger engine makes the Mini snappy and responsive, best suiting its character. In the absence of the Classic trim, the Signature trim becomes the default base trim, and it's a good one, including a panoramic sunroof, heated front seats and keyless entry. It also offers a few options, such as the premium audio system.

2020 MINI Hardtop 4 Door Cooper S 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 7AM)
LOVE THIS CAR! The more I drive it, the more I love it!!! It’s a blast to drive, hugs the road, and has some good heft to it, so you don’t feel like you’re in a tin box. You get a lot of bang for your buck with this little gem. A lot of attention to detail was put into this vehicle. Lots of fun little surprises. The ONLY thing I wish it had more of was storage space....the center … console is very small. But that’s just a personal thing for me.
First car my wife still LOVES!

2018 MINI Hardtop 4 Door Cooper S 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 6M)
Just a week after we took delivery of her Cooper S my wife told me, if anything happens to this car I want another one. After 50K miles she still feels the same. It's easy to see why. While outwardly small the feel inside is comfortable and refined, finishes are first class. The driving experience is unlike any other car I have driven. Coming clean, I used to race SCCA. I have had … Austin Healey's, Porsche 911 and 944, Fiat 124 Spider racer and other hotties. This Cooper S is the bomb. It has a sport mode that winds the tranny and gives instant boost. This thing sticks to the road. It's handling compares to the 911, to be fair the 911 had a smoother ride. I cannot think of a better urban attack vehicle. The Cooper S is front wheel drive but understeer is very manageable even when powering into traffic. The 4 door Cooper S is not a long hauler, a trip over 3 hours will become tiring though not impossible. Stopping every couple of hours makes a trip doable. If we need hauling space after a Costco trip simply drop the back seats, plenty of space. Premium gas is required or the engine will not deliver all its capable of, at 30 mpg overall that's no problem.
The 2018 is a third generation Mini built in Germany. Fit and finish are tight. Regular maintenance is the same as any other car. Reliability so far has been perfect. Bottom line, if you want a car for the city this is it. FAST, Nimble and easy to park. You'll love it.
Another 10K miles, everything I said Again.
Delightful in every way

2023 MINI Hardtop 4 Door Cooper S 4dr Hatchback (2.0L 4cyl Turbo 7AM)
On 6-4-2022 I took delivery of a Cooper S five door hardtop, having traded my 2018 Corvette for it. Compared to the Mini, the Corvette felt stupid and lumpish. The Mini has many delightful design details, inside and out (see th Stephenson video on YouTube for insights into what drove the design). It handles very well, has excellent acceleration and a surprisingly smooth and quiet ride. I … have owned several Porsche and Audi sports cars in the last ten years, and the Mini is more practical and just as much fun to drive. The free service for three years is also a much appreciated benefit. Minis are more expensive than other cars in their class, but their unique details justify their cost.
There is one negative area: the rear hatch. It is very heavy, and is manually operated, so that opening and closing it is difficult.
To sun up:

It's a fiesty little thing! We love it!

2019 MINI Hardtop 4 Door Cooper 4dr Hatchback (1.5L 3cyl Turbo 6M)
All the sporty and fun factors of the original 2-door look, but with 4-door convenience! The base model has plenty of pep and tons of extras like heated seats, backup camera, bluetooth phone and music capabilities, moonroof, and is a head-turner on the road. We're in love!
