Top Features of MINI OS 9 Every MINI Owner should know

By making every journey more intimate, connected, and distinctively MINI, the MINI Operating System 9 represents a digital quantum leap. OS 9 opens the door to a world where technology engages you rather than just helps, with features like immersive driving modes and intelligent infotainment.
1- A New Intuitive User Experience
The main attraction? A circular OLED touchscreen with a diameter of 240 mm that is both aesthetically pleasing and designed for intuitive control. Navigating, connecting, and personalising is now simpler than ever with MINI OS 9, all in a way that feels authentic and, well, MINI. You can communicate with ease using voice commands or touch when you pair this with your MINI Intelligent Personal Assistant.
2- Modes of Immersive Driving
You can have eight driving vibes instead of just one. Amazing worlds created to stimulate your senses are introduced in MINI OS 9. Every mode has its own unique sound and visual palette, but the Personal Mode allows you to go even further by using your own photos from your smartphone’s gallery to set the MINI Interaction Unit’s background. What about the ambient lighting? It automatically adjusts to the pictures you select. The magic of interior mood has reached a whole new level.
3- Personal Assistant in Your MINI
Press the steering wheel button or say “Hey MINI,” and your MINI will take care of the rest. This fully functional voice assistant can recognise whether you are the front passenger or the driver, change settings, and respond to travel enquiries. Choose between the endearing Spike avatar or the vintage MINI visualisation as your assistant comes to life with animated graphics on the OLED screen.

4- Smart as Standard: MINI Connected Base
Smart standard features like MINI Navigation, which provides real-time traffic and map updates, and Remote Services, which allow you to communicate with your vehicle via the MINI App, are included with every MINI running OS 9. In every drive, innovation meets the road.

5- MINI Connected Package: Even More Adorable
Get even more by choosing the MINI Connected Package, which includes improved navigation capabilities, in-car music streaming, and the expanded digital personality of “Spike” in your IPA. It is an enhanced version of the MINI digital experience.
6- The Digital Key Plus
Keep the conventional key at home. Your MINI will automatically unlock when you get close and lock when you leave, thanks to Digital Key Plus. You can share access with up to five people and even set usage limits with this iOS, Android, and Apple WatchTM app. Indeed, even if your phone’s battery is dead, it still functions.

7- Your MINI, Anywhere: The MINI App
Using your phone, you can connect, control, and customise. No matter where you are, you can plan trips, check the status of your MINI, and adjust settings with the MINI App. Unending convenience, easy navigation, and a sleek design.
8- Upgrade Software Remotely
With free over-the-air software updates, your MINI remains as current as your music selections. Depending on your model, you might also get performance improvements or new features without ever entering a service centre.
The goal of MINI OS 9 is to establish an emotional and personal bond with each drive. Your MINI feels alive, responsive, and in perfect harmony with you as soon as you get inside. Because we don’t just get you from point A to point B at MINI. We ensure that the trip is unforgettable.
