Does the 2015 MINI Cooper Roadster need premium gas?
Every gas trim of this model takes premium.
| Trim (engine / transmission) | Fuel | MPG | Fuel/yr |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.6L 4-cyl, S6 automatic, FWD | PREMIUM | 29 | $2,650 |
| 1.6L 4-cyl, 6-spd manual, FWD | PREMIUM | 29 | $2,650 |
The EPA records the fuel each version was tested on. Whether premium is strictly required or just recommended is an owner's-manual detail the EPA dataset doesn't include — so we don't guess it.
