| Gearbox: | Manual | Manual | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engine: | 1.6 Petrol | 1.4 Diesel | |
| Petrol engines (Mini Cooper) are generally quieter, smoother, and better suited for short trips due to quicker warm-up times. Diesel (Toyota Yaris) engines, on the other hand, offer superior fuel efficiency and torque, making them ideal for long-distance driving and heavy loads.

Engines | |||
| Average engine lifespan: | 390'000 km | 300'000 km | |
| Engine resource depends largely on regular maintenance and the quality of the oils and fuels used, but under equal conditions the average life of a Mini Cooper engine could be longer. | |||
| Engine production duration: | 7 years | 15 years | |
| Engine spread: | Used only for this car | Installed on at least 3 other car models, including Toyota Corolla, Toyota Auris, Toyota iQ | |
| In general, the longer and for more car models an engine is produced, the better its serviceability and availability of spare parts. Toyota Yaris might be a better choice in this respect. | |||
| Hydraulic tappets: | yes | no | |
| The Mini Cooper engine has hydraulic tappets (lifters), providing quieter operation and no need for periodic adjustment, but they are more complex in design and can cause serious engine damage in case of failure. | |||
| Toyota Yaris 2005 1.4 engine: Toyota introduced this 1.4-liter turbocharged diesel engine in 2001, and production continued until 2017. It features a Bosch Common Rail fuel injection system, initially equipped with electromagnetic injectors until 2008. These were later replaced by non-repairable ...
