MINI is a British automobile brand that produces small or subcompact vehicles. MINI is owned by BMW, and is based in the United Kingdom. The MINI Cooper and the MINI Clubman are excellent examples of this very unique brand. In 2018, J.D. Power ranked the MINI Cooper as the “Highest Ranked Compact Sporty Car in Initial Quality.” However, even these compact cars can come with very large issues.
