MINI Winter Features
The beautiful colours of fall have slowly passed away, and the arrival of winter has begun its fast approach. Many parts of the Northern Hemisphere have already been introduced to the beginnings of the winter season, especially here in Canada. Winter brings along with it an abundance of unique weather conditions that no other season possesses. In one day, you can experience snow, sleet, freezing rain, ice pellets and slush, each one introducing a new challenge to your daily commute. There are several steps that residents of St. Albert, Sherwood Park, Beaumont, Leduc, Spruce Grove, Devon, Stony Plain, Fort Saskatchewan and surrounding areas of Alberta can take to get their vehicle winter-ready.
However, having a vehicle that is equipped with unique winter-ready features makes the journey that much easier. MINI knows that winters in Canada can be unpredictable and treacherous at times; that's why we designed MINI's to endure the harsh Canadian winters and give you confidence while behind the wheel. At MINI Edmonton, our new vehicle inventory is packed with MINI's that offer a slew of standard and available features that make your winter drive more relaxed and stress-free.

Heated Side Mirrors & Windshield Washer Jets

Electric Front Window Defroster
Don't you hate it when winter has thrown freezing rain your way? Waking up in the morning and having to scrap the ice off your windshield is not a task many look forward to. Luckily, this available feature will defrost and melt ice on your windshield with the push of a button.
3 Stage Heated Seats
It's -20 outside and maybe even colder inside your vehicle when you start it for the first time. Don't worry; MINI's 3-stage heated seats allow you to choose from three levels of heat intensity. The seat is able to warm your seat bottom and back.
Cornering Brake Control
The snow and ice can wreak havoc on roads and highways. With Cornering Brake Control, the system optimizes your braking capabilities by applying brake pressure to each individual wheel, helping you stay in control.
Electronic Brakeforce Distribution
Two words you don't want to hear, especially during the winter season, are under-steer and over-steer. Electronic Brakeforce Distribution is able to apply brake force, helping you to avoid both unwanted situations.
