On the afternoon of the 4th, MINI Korea will launch the online limited edition model, the ‘MINI JCW Pat Moss Edition’, through the MINI Shop Online.
The MINI JCW Pat Moss Edition is a limited edition model with only 1,000 units released worldwide. It was created to honor two legendary female racers, Pat Moss and Ann Wisdom, who won the Netherlands Tulip Rally, the first international auto racing event, in 1962 and to pay tribute to women drivers associated with MINI.
This edition, based on the new MINI JCW 3-Door, reflects the unique stories of the two female racers who led the Tulip Rally victory and incorporates elements symbolizing MINI’s racing heritage throughout the interior and exterior.
The exterior of the Pat Moss Edition features a striking Midnight Black Metallic color combined with contrasting white bonnet stripes, emphasizing a lively appeal. A sticker indicating the course of the 1962 Tulip Rally is placed under the vehicle’s side scuttle, and the winning classic Mini’s registration number ‘737 ABL’ is given a three-dimensional effect on the bonnet stripe, adding a special touch exclusive to this edition.
Additionally, a multi-tone roof featuring a gradient of Chili Red, Melting Silver, and Jet Black completes the distinctive design, while 18-inch JCW Circuit Sport wheels with tulip graphic floating wheel caps enhance the sporty feel.
The interior is finished in piano black for added luxury, while the JCW Dynamica sport seats in Carbon Black bring a unified look to the cabin. Moreover, the steering wheel is wrapped in Nappa leather, and tulip graphics are applied to the door sills along with a ‘PAT MOSS’ sticker on the passenger dashboard, emphasizing the edition’s unique charm.
The MINI JCW Pat Moss Edition features a MINI TwinPower Turbo 4-cylinder gasoline engine that delivers a maximum output of 231 horsepower and a peak torque of 32.6 kg·m, paired with an 8-speed Steptronic sports automatic transmission, providing dynamic driving performance that lives up to JCW’s racing DNA. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.1 seconds.
Other advanced driver assistance features include front collision warning, active cruise control, head-up display, parking assistant, as well as adaptive LED headlights, an 8.8-inch center display, Apple CarPlay capability, wireless charging, and comfort access to ensure a comfortable and safe driving experience.
