In "normal" mode, you are looking at 0-60 times in the 8 to 9 second range. It is faster in "Sport Mode" or "Steptronic" but not sure by how much exactly.

I have been very pleased by the performance of the CVT. The car has a lot more peep from the get go (And up in the RPM range) that you might think possible. I have never had a problem merging in the expressway, keeping up with fast moving traffic or accelerating from a standstill.

I don't miss shifting my own gears, though many others here would disagree.

The Cooper CVT with the standard suspension is faster than the heavier Cooper S in the AutoXtrac, so the often overlooked CVT Cooper (By the hardcore manual tranny crowd) appears to be the best kept secret in the MINI range.

Enjoy!
