The MINI brand says that the Countryman embodies the adventurous spirit, has room for five passengers, a large trunk and also offers four-wheel drive. This is also why the 'safari' tent was the logical next step.

The new Mini Countryman (2017) is slightly larger and wider than its predecessor, and although it has been completely redeveloped, this hiking Mini remains true to itself – the hexagonal grille, the headlights... The not-so-mini new Mini Countryman is the most versatile Mini yet and indeed the first Mini to have a plug-in hybrid drive.
After the BMW Vision Next 100 and Rolls-Royce Vision Next 100 concepts, the MINI Vision Next 100 concept also had its moment, which may be the smallest compared to the aforementioned, but it did not remain in their shadow. MINI presented its vision of the vehicle of the future as an urban map that you can summon like a dog anywhere and anytime.
The name Scrambler is associated with motorcycles, but since Mini is owned by BMW, which is no stranger to versatile Scrambler motorcycles, the birth of the Mini Clubman All4 Scrambler concept is not such a surprise. The Brits drew inspiration for it from the BMW R nineT Scrambler motorcycle, and it is based on the Clubman S All4 model.
Compared to its predecessor, the new Mini Cabrio has grown a bit, and with it, our appetites for the summer of 2016 have also grown. It maintains the driving sensations of a go-kart and the multi-layered canvas roof that folds or erects in a mere 18 seconds, but the new Mini Cabrio has made both visual and substantive leap forward. There is a never-before-seen package of LED headlights, improved digital communication with the surroundings, more space on the seats and in the trunk... It will roll into showrooms in March 2016.
The fever is rising. The Frankfurt Motor Show 2015 has started and we are looking forward to a really hot automotive autumn, so hot for Slovenians that we can talk about the Indian automotive summer. The automotive industry continues in high gear, and Slovenians will also have quite a bit of it, as many novelties or fresh versions of well-known and popular models will soon hit our roads.
Mini, or BMW, is not resting and continues the offensive of renovating the Mini model range. This time we can be impressed by the new look of the most urban delivery truck in the world. This was indeed the primary function of the Clubman model sometime in the past.
The Mini Cooper S is a legendary representative of a type of car that seems to be dying out in the flood of similar products. It is a car cult that is hard to miss if you are a fan of motoring. A car that you have to have once in your life. The Mini Cooper S, i.e. the most "wild" Mini with the S designation in the current 4th generation, also comes with a rear pair of doors and is thus more friendly to urban mothers. Although we believe that some hot-blooded daddy will also sit in it.
Remember the movie Hancock and the glasses worn by Will Smith? The British car manufacturer MINI will provide additional safety and comfort for drivers and passengers with glasses of a similar design, as at the Shanghai Motor Show it presented the concept of MINI smart glasses for displaying augmented reality Augmented Vision, which, in a similar way to the one already presented by Google Glass, with a screen at eye level and with relevant information improves and enriches driving.
When you look at a parked mini, you somehow expect that there is a powerful gasoline engine under the hood and not some diesel three-cylinder mill, as was the case with the test Mini cooper D. This one brings many innovations and exemplary economy for the brand and model, but above all, the most important thing, with it, the mini is what it always (was) ... a Mini. Read below how it fared in our test.
For some time, the Mini Countryman has been considered the largest mini model, which can also satisfy the basic family needs and the customer's wishes for easier entry and higher seating. However, when the cooper SD ALL4 is added to its name, it means even more sporty driving, even off-road, and economical consumption.
The British Mini never made a "ship", but it created a road "surfer". Even their miniatures are sometimes too big. A few days ago, at the auto show in Los Angeles, they presented their urban vision, the Mini CitySurfer, an electric scooter concept with recognizable curves.
