MINI has unveiled the 1965 Victory Edition in Singapore, which commemorates the brand’s triumph at the 1965 Monte Carlo Rally.
MINI has introduced the 1965 Victory Edition, a special limited-run model that celebrates the brand’s success at the 1965 Monte Carlo Rally. The special edition was unveiled at an event held at the Mini Eurokars Habitat showroom on 23 April.
Two versions of the 1965 Victory Edition are available, with the internal combustion engine (ICE) model being based on the John Cooper Works (JCW) 3-door.
There is also an electrified version, which is based on the JCW Electric.
Both variants are finished in an eye-catching Chili Red paintwork, complemented by white trimming that includes the roof, door mirrors and the stripe that runs down the bonnet and at the back.
The sides of the car are adorned with the number ’52’, a reference to the number of the race-winning car of 1965.
The number ‘1965’ also features prominently throughout the car, and it appears in places like the C-pillars, on the steering wheel, and on the door sills. The inside of the driver’s door also features a special dedication sticker that details some information about the historic 1965 rally event.
Mini will only offer three units of the 1965 Victory Edition in Singapore, one of which will be the petrol-powered JCW model with 231bhp and 380Nm of torque.
This car is distinguished by its unique JCW Lap Spoke two-tone Design rims, which come with floating centre hubs and JCW tyre valve caps.
The other two units will be the electrified JCW Electric variant, which produces 258bhp and 350Nm of torque, and also features a unique wheel design of JCW Mastery Spoke black rims that has floating centre hubs and JCW tyre valve caps as well.
Pricing starts at $287,888 with COE for the electrified Mini JCW Electric 1965 Victory Edition, while the one and only Mini JCW 1965 Victory Edition is going for $313,888 with COE.
