From Classics to EVs: Meet the Full MINI Family at 1 Utama This Week

The Auto Bavaria MINI EXPO 2026 has officially taken over the LUXE zone at 1 Utama Shopping Centre, offering a comprehensive look at the evolution of the iconic brand from its nostalgic roots to its high-tech future. Running until 17 May 2026, the event serves as a grand stage for the entire MINI Family, where the timeless charm of two curated MINI Classics stands in perfect harmony alongside the brand’s most advanced battery electric vehicles. This unique showcase allows visitors to witness decades of design history while exploring the latest innovations in the premium mobility sector.

At the heart of the display is a diverse lineup that caters to every personality, featuring the all-electric MINI Cooper SE and MINI JCW Electric, as well as the adventurous MINI Aceman and the stylish MINI Convertible. For collectors and enthusiasts, the expo provides a rare opportunity to get up close with exclusive models such as the MINI JCW GP Inspired Edition, the MINI Cooper SE Paul Smith Edition, and the MINI Countryman Shadowline Limited Edition.

According to Wong Loke Win, Head of Operations at Auto Bavaria, the event is designed to bring the brand’s vibrant and individualistic lifestyle closer to Malaysians, ensuring that every visitor can connect with the agility and spirited performance that MINI is known for.

Beyond the static displays, the expo offers a highly interactive experience where guests can get behind the wheel for test drives to feel the signature go-kart handling firsthand. To celebrate the occasion, Auto Bavaria is providing expo-exclusive rebates and premium rewards, including complimentary Sony headphones or special-edition Leica cameras for those who purchase their preferred model during the event.

Complemented by limited-edition collectibles and creative photo corners for social media enthusiasts, the showcase highlights Auto Bavaria’s 14-year legacy of customer excellence by delivering a lifestyle-centric environment that goes far beyond a traditional car showroom.
