and MINI COUNTRYMAN UNTAMED UNTAMED SPECIAL EDITION

Will debut at the 2022 Beijing Auto Show,

And in the first half of the year, it landed in the Chinese market.

The five core models of the MINI series have simultaneously launched special edition models - MINI RESOLUTE Obsessed Special Edition, MINI CLUBMAN UNTOLD Free Special Edition, MINI COUNTRYMAN UNTAMED Uninhibited Special Edition. All new cars will debut at the 2022 Beijing Auto Show and officially land in the Chinese market in the first half of the year.

The MINI three-door version and the MINI five-door version are known for their "small size and large space". The MINI CABRIO, the only convertible model in the high-end compact car segment, has a more tense appearance.

In terms of appearance, the MINI RESOLUTE Obsessive Special Edition further reinforces the iconic aesthetic design of the MINI model on the basis of tradition. The retro green paint previously exclusively designed for family racing driver MINI JOHN COOPER WORKS was used for the first time on the MINI Three-Door/Five-Door/CABRIO RESOLUTE Obsession Special Edition, and the bold green color further highlights the strength of the body and pays tribute to the legendary racing history of MINI. Based on sustainability considerations, chrome-plated components are no longer used on the body. Exclusive Resolute copper design is as far as the eye can see: headlights, grilles, front panel frames, door handles, fuel tank covers and rear lights. The hood pull strip and welcome pedal are presented in a gradient combination of parallel lines and break the traditional symmetry, with the word "RESOLUTE" printed only on one side. On the Cooper S engine version of the Special Edition model, the grille inner frame, intake grille blades, MINI branding and exhaust tailpipe trim are all designed in piano black. Mini three-door/five-door ESSENCE Obsessive Special Edition with black stripes around the lower edge of the window. The 18-inch black pulsed seven-spoke alloy wheels exude sporty personality.

Inside, the new light check design of the sports seats uses 100% recycled material. In addition, MINI Yours' leisurely leather-carbon black is available for users to choose from, giving the seat more eye-catching stitching and piping, and the British rice flag perforation design on the headrest. Nappa sports leather steering wheels have the words "RESOLUTE" printed on the lower spokes of the special edition model. On the dashboard, the evenly distributed pale gold pinstripes contrast with the black background and echo the outer hood pull stripes. With the laser-engraved rings scattered across the central instrument panel, the ambient lights in the doors and cockpit areas, the premium interior colours of the Special Edition models are accentuated.

Mini RESOLUTE Obsessive Special Edition also features the latest generation of MINI operating system, optimized for vehicle functions, audio programs, communications and applications for faster and more intuitive operation. The function card on the 8.8-inch touch display on the central dashboard can be used to activate menu items, allowing the driver to select the vehicle's functions as if they were operating a smartphone.

MINI will launch the MINI RESOLUTE Obsessive Special Edition based on the MINI COOPER Three-Door Edition, MINI COOPER S Three-Door Edition, MINI COOPER Five-Door Edition, MINI COOPER S Five-Door Edition and MINI COOPER S CABRIO.

MINI CLUBMAN is an innovator in the high-end compact segment, offering more interpretation of the concept of shooting brakes. The distinctive six-door design is more like a moving work of art.

Previously, the exclusive MINI COUNTRYMAN Eucalyptus paint was first applied to the MINI CLUBMAN UNTOLD Free Special Edition, and the JOHN COOPER WORKS Aerodynamic Kit provides a sleek, modern and dynamic look for the model. For the first time, the upper bracket of the wheels adopted a Eucalyptus cyan design, replacing the traditional black. Five slender, dynamic stripes run from the hood to the roof, and the 3D printed side suspension windows present a unique embossed stripe pattern that also appears on the driver's side welcome lights and welcome pedals outside the car.
