It's About Power and Control

The John Cooper Works has a better overall form compared to the Fiat. There is more room all-around, which is impressive since the JCW is actually a bit shorter than the Fiat. You'll enjoy the nine-speed transmission that makes the JCW shift more smoothly, and you'll be able to get a better overall driving experience compared to the seven-speed transmission in the Fiat. The JCW also comes with performance specs that more than double the capabilities of the Fiat. You'll get a 228 horsepower engine as opposed to a 101 horsepower engine. You'll get outstanding torque and more miles on a single tank of gas when driving the JCW instead of the Fiat.

A Glimpse Inside

The interior tells you a lot about how much the engineers care about the reliability and functionality of their vehicles. The JCW convertible is designed with seats that will have you feeling like you're setting out to the race track. The JCW comes with sport front seats instead of the bucket seats that come with the Fiat. This results in an experience that feels more active and controlled and helps set the stage for a day where you are in control. Another win for the JCW is the fact that leather comes standard while the Fiat uses cloth seating. The JCW feels better-designed, and you'll feel like it was custom-made for you. Both vehicles have similar options include interior air filtration, but we think you'll agree that the interior layout of the JCW is superior.

Options Abound in the JCW

If options are what you want, the JCW has plenty to choose from. You'll be able to enjoy exclusive John Cooper Works detailing, including Bonnet Stripes, custom-color Mirror Caps and auto-dimming features. The JCW also features a sports-tuned suspension, dynamic damper control and a cockpit Chrono package to help you enjoy even greater control and reliability. Ultimately, both vehicles have substantial features that will make your driving experience more enjoyable, but the JCW has more options that are truly unique. This makes the JCW a better overall choice for those who want to get a highly personalized vehicle.
