MINI Traveller

29th January 2007

The undisguised prototype, snapped undergoing cold-climate testing in northern Scandinavia, looks essentially as expected, given the spate of like-bodied concept cars that have been seen on the auto show circuit recently. The car incorporates barn-style rear doors that split down the middle.

The doors themselves have thoughtfully been cut wide to incorporate the brake lights, affording a large aperture for easy cargo loading. Additionally, the model gains one suicide-hinged side-door on the passenger side of the vehicle. It is made to open wide to ease entry to the back seat.

The vehicle's expected to be labelled the Traveller when it appears on the road in summer this year.
