• Mini’s new circular OLED touchscreen has been demonstrated, but now it’s talking about the navigation system.
  • New operating system, customizable user interfaces, enhanced speech prompts, and more straightforward navigation.
  • The Mini Connected Store sells games and movies.

Uniquely, every Mini features a panel with a circle in the middle. The British manufacturer altered the spherical section again for the new Minis—another 9.4-inch OLED tablet. The entertainment system replaced the speedometer. We’ve seen the new Dash’s giant screen, but now we understand the entertainment system.

Individually unique

The tiny border surrounding the larger circular display is a “bezel.” Clear visuals and moving menus fit on the screen. BMW’s iDrive 9 Android-based software powers everything.

This Mini Operating System 9 program lets users swipe up or sideways to access functionalities. Static bars at the top and bottom of the screen display driving information like the speedometer and crucial buttons. Temperature settings are always on the screen’s left and right. Touching the speed turns the screen into a full-size gauge that, in some drive modes, looks like the old ones.

Balance, Timeless, and Vivid are themed drive modes that complement Core, Green, and Go-Kart. In “personal mode,” users can upload their backgrounds. The natural illumination inside matches the photo. Trail mode on Mini Countryman has a digital compass and inclinometer.

Small games

Mini Connected Store’s extra bundle has many apps. Spotify and other music streaming services allow TV viewing. AirConsole lets drivers play video games with their phones. The car must be stopped to achieve this.

The new Mini’s infotainment system incorporates cloud-based navigation with extra functions. This system finds routes faster and better. “Hey, Mini” activates the better voice-recognition software. It has more customizable options. Even though it tells jokes and stories, the car’s AI can only be utilised alone.

Mini OS 9 supports wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Like other entertainment systems, it updates wirelessly. In 2025, the Mini Cooper will get these additional characteristics, followed by other Mini models.
