The second generation, the R56 hatchback and R57 convertible, was introduced in November 2006 on a re engineered platform with many stylistic and engineering changes. It launched in the Cooper and Cooper S, with the Mini One added in 2007, a Cooper D diesel from April 2007, the budget Mini First in 2009 and a Life Cycle Impulse facelift in August 2010 for the 2011 model year. The Mini Coupe and Roadster were derived from the convertible. Its model years run from 2006 to 2013.
