MINI takes it to the MAX in 2011

MINI fans will be in seventh heaven as we check out the firm’s seven new cars for 2011.

MINI logo

2011 is set to be the year of the MINI. As downsizing becomes the watchword, parent firm BMW is set to turn up the heat on the MINI line-up. 

 

Responding to new market demands, the current MINI hatch, Clubman and Countryman will be joined by two new production cars, three concepts which preview production certain models and an electric scooter!

 

What’s more, the firm makes its return to the WRC with a rally-prepared Countryman, and as you read this, MINI’s rally-raid car will be taking to the stages in South America on this year’s Dakar rally.

 

In this MINI special, we preview what’s shaping up to be the firm’s busiest year to date.
