"This September, MINI John Cooper Works (JCW) and Deus Ex Machina are pulling the cover off something bold: two one-off cars that fuse MINI's racing heritage with Deus's surf-meets-street lifestyle edge. Set to debut at IAA Mobility 2025 in Munich, the MINI JCW x DEUS partnership isn't just a design exercise-it's a statement about where precision engineering meets cultural cool."
"The second is the combustion-driven JCW F66, pushing 170 kW (231 hp). Tagged as "forged on the track," this one leans into MINI's motorsport roots with a stripped-down, performance-first aesthetic. It's a nod to old-school speed and precision, engineered for drivers who crave the sound and feel of combustion. Together, they tell two sides of the same story: performance and personality, engineered for different tribes but connected by a shared ethos."
MINI John Cooper Works and Deus Ex Machina will debut two one-off collaborative cars at IAA Mobility 2025 in Munich. Both builds start from MINI JCW DNA but diverge in powertrain and personality. The electric JCW J01 produces up to 190 kW (258 hp), features surf-inspired graphics, and is nicknamed "born of the coast." The combustion JCW F66 makes 170 kW (231 hp), is tagged "forged on the track," and emphasizes a stripped-down, performance-first motorsport aesthetic. Both cars carry a stark white "X" across their roofs as a unifying design mark. Deus Creative Director Carby Tuckwell and Matt Willey collaborated with MINI's in-house design team led by Holger Hampf and Munich-based Designworks.
